Bokrijk is an open air museum in Belgium. In cooperation with “Het Geluidshuis” and “Gelotology” New Solid was part of the team to create a visual attraction in the smithy. A funny story is told by the tools of the blacksmith, starring the ton, the oven and the anvil.

Using the technique of video mapping we bring the tools to live: animated faces are projected onto the tools.
New Solid was asked to animate the characters and to guide the mapping proces.
