ETT S.p.A. <\/strong>SCAI Group<\/strong>; director Federico Basso; digital storyteller, Alessandro Cavallaro ETT S.p.A. SCAI Group; Gabriele Campanella, Cinema Engineering Researcher, Polytechnic University of Turin. <\/strong>Moderator: Tommaso Maggi, Rai Cinema strategic and digital marketing.<\/strong> Project creator and curator Adele Magnelli, International Project Manager, ETT S.p.A<\/strong>., will also be present. SCAI Group.<\/strong> A preview screening in linear and VR of the second chapter \u201cThe Divine Comedy VR: Purgatory.\u201d <\/u><\/strong>From an idea by Adele Magnelli, the short film is written and directed by Federico Basso, based on a subject by Alessandro Cavallaro <\/u><\/strong>, who provided scientific supervision and verse selection. The short film, lasting about eight and a half minutes, accompanied by the voice of actor Francesco Pannofino<\/strong>, allows the viewer to step into the shoes of the Supreme Poet and cross the threshold of Purgatory to embark on his journey. Purgatory manifests itself in all its grandeur: a rocky mountain towering in the center of the southern hemisphere, in the ocean. Coming out of Hell, the passage of time is admitted in this realm: here one can see sunrise and sunset, day and night, and light is shown in all its hues. Upon entering this primordial setting, the viewer will subjectively cross the threshold of Purgatory, seen through Dante\u2019s eyes: a door in the rock, guarded by an angel armed with a sword.<\/em> The first frame is that of the proud: souls forced by huge boulders to look resignedly at the ground, where scenes of humility and pride are depicted: stories carved into high reliefs prodigiously animated in \u201cvisible speak.\u201d<\/em> This is followed by the woes of the envious, slumped to the ground with their eyes sewn shut, and the lustful, advancing dramatically into the fire of the last frame.<\/em> Finally, having arrived at the Earthly Paradise, the woman who moved Dante to the journey through the first two realms appears: Beatrice. The ancient fire of love is rekindled, followed by the promise of the last stage, that of Heavenly Paradise. After painful repentance, Dante will finally be ready to extinguish the memory of all sin, now \u201cpure and willing to ascend to the stars.\u201d<\/em> The settings were entirely modeled, sculpted and painted in 3D. Animation of plants, fire and water were made based on physical parameters, making up to 100 million particles interact in the simulations. As for the human figure, which becomes more central in Purgatorio than in Inferno, we opted for the integration in compositing of actors filmed on green screen in those scenes involving close-ups, where faces and expressions are perceived. The crowd scenes were made by filming the real movements of actors (MOCAP: motion capture), and bringing those movements back to 3D character. In addition, the original soundtracks are the work of Marco Morini<\/strong>, a work that pays special attention to sound design to enrich the viewer\u2019s all-round experience.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
