Our Mission Statement.

We set out to create work that represents the 'patchwork cultures of Manchester'.  We wanted to create clothing that would have a truly local feel to it, and would be able to dynamically and instantly represent the area in which the wearer found themselves.  We wanted the clothing to be temporary, so that it might change with changing cultures.  This is why we used projection- to show clothing that can instantly change.  To create this we:

• each researched an area of the city, and the cultures found there.
• created drawings and samples based on these findings.
• merged our drawings and samples using digital print to create 'patchwork designs'.
• created moving images from these designs.
• researched and perfected using projection.
• found a dancer, and studio space to film in.
• projected our moving animations on to the dancer while he performed.
• filmed the performance.
• edited  the footage into our final video.

We made the video energetic and vibrant (using music and dance) to represent the energy and vibrancy of the city.  We were also sure to make the video available in full 1080p HD, to give the best possible image quality.
