Clip of the Week
The 600 Years
Outdoor projection-mapping on buildings is becoming a
popular way to bring visual excitement to a space during a
special event. Here is a great example, featuring a
600-year-old clock tower in Prague. The historical building
appears to come alive and travel through time.
