The Astonishing

As part of the progressive rock band Dream Theater's "The Astonishing" world tour, a team of 19 animators, motion designers, and 3D modelers worked relentlessly to produce 150 minutes of intense, narrative visual content!

We designed and produced the scenography and visual content that accompanied the band's musical performance live on tour. A visual design featuring fantastical characters was created to closely match the very essence of this daring rock opera.

To further immerse the audience in the world of the show, an interactive installation was set up in the lobbies of the concert halls. This robot selects a spectator from the crowd and takes their picture. The spectator instantly becomes a member of a clan from the show and is assigned a name. A photo ID card is then generated. They are subsequently introduced to the audience during intermission and become accessible online.
