Echo Lake – Young Silence from Dan Nixon on Vimeo.
Heard of Kinect? You might have spent Christmas leaping around the living room with it. Microsoft’s motion-control based system for Xbox 360 has been a big hit with gamers, but now it’s also been used to create a music video. Filmmaker Dan Nixon shot the video for Echo Lake using the Kinect camera. “The footage was shot on that piece of £130 equipment and recorded to custom software running on a laptop.” he explains. “The depth data was then manipulated to get the whole band in one ‘space’ and then the fun started.” The video is already getting plenty of buzz on tech and games blogs thanks to the Kinect angle.
