OLYMPIC GAMES

For the Olympic Games in Rio 2016, Susi Sie had the honor
to work on a 128 meter projection for its opening ceremony.

Together with the wonderful director Fernando Meirelles
(director of "City Of God", "The Two Popes", "The Constant Gardener"),
Susi was happy to create the opening of the show, visualizing the beginning of life.

Deeply inspired by the book "Cymatics"
by the Swiss physician and natural scientist Hans Jenny,
Susi set out to find a way to visually bring his experiments from the book to life on film.

For this, particles were placed on a vibrating plate
and exposed to different frequencies, creating impressive patterns.

All scenes were filmed, no CGI.
