00:00 It's a world class music festival in a stunning natural setting and at this year's Wondro
00:08 Festival, a crew of young filmmakers will be bringing nature to life.
00:13 We come on site, we learn about digital video and then we're straight out into nature.
00:18 We're here for a couple of days and then it's showtime.
00:23 The Bioluminescence Project has been lighting up local festivals over the past two years
00:28 with students creating site specific video content to project onto trees, buildings and
00:34 any other surface they can find.
00:37 At the Wondro Festival they will have an audience of thousands.
00:41 It's exciting because this is the biggest one I think we've done.
00:44 A huge amount of Wondro is discovery artists and so many of them are our local artists
00:50 that are yet to be on the national stage but at Wondro they can be.
00:54 As the festival stages are bumping in, the Bioluminescence crew are filming local flora
01:00 and fauna, then learning how to edit the footage into visuals for an immersive live mixed projection.
01:07 I'm excited to do the actual projection and see how it all looks.
01:10 Yeah, it's a cool way to look at nature.
01:14 These knobs allow me to control different effects.
01:17 For Bioluminescence creator Scott Baker, it's a chance for the next generation to make the
01:23 leap from digital media consumers to video producers.
01:27 Instead of just consuming technology, they're making content to be able to share with others
01:32 and it's that easy.
01:34 I think it's about seeing what's around you in a different light.
01:38 Can't wait to see my videos up there.
01:42 Bringing a special touch of local magic to the big top.
