The use of artificial intelligence in the concert of Alireza Ghorbani

According to Fars news agency, Farid Nazerfasihi, the director and stage designer of Alireza Ghorbani’s winter concert in Tehran, said about the visual effects and videomappings of this concert: When it was decided to illustrate Alireza Ghorbani’s concerts, in the research and review phase of the samples We analyzed the world that is built and implemented in terms of quality and standard.

He continued: In the first stage, a story or scenario was written for all the pieces that were to be performed, and throughout this process, we were thinking that usually in the performances held in Iran, people communicate with music and They see a live performance, but we wanted to involve the audience in another way, so that in addition to using Alireza Ghorbani’s voice and enjoyable music, we also create a series of images for them that are in line with the music and are new images that capture all their senses. get involved

Nazer Fasihi added: For this reason, in this process, after the writing was finished, the storyboards were designed, the samples that had to be made were done, we took different tests in different places to see what it would look like with the best performance that we can perform.

He stated: In the recent period when AI was released and entered the market and was used by the public, we, as a studio that worked on visual effects for many years, were always involved with technology and tried to work with the ideas and products we make. To be a leader in this field, we decided to use AI for space creations and videos. For this reason, we involved the AI ​​department, which was formed a long time ago for research and development work, in this project. If I want to provide a brief analysis for these videos, they are a combination of AI, 3D modeling, dynamics, etc., and artificial intelligence tools were not fully used, and it was only a part of the project implementation process, which I think can Be a step forward in the use of artificial intelligence. In fact, we wanted to create a new aspect with this work, considering the type of music of Alireza Ghorbani and the type of his performance and the technology that goes into the visualization of his works.

This special effects designer said: In the writing stage, we came to the conclusion that in the illustrations of Alireza Ghorbani’s concert, we should try to use architecture and nature, in fact, four main elements. Architecture, especially Iranian architecture, faces the sky and upwards, and Alireza Ghorbani’s poems and his voice and music have a mystical part that encourages people to self-knowledge, search for truth, and return to themselves. For this reason, we thought that these spaces can create a space together where people can see and enjoy a series of new images while watching the performances.

He also explained about the colors used in the video mappings: the color palette we chose for the illustrations was that we wanted to create a lot of contrast with the existing outdoor space, because if we were to use neutral colors As a rule, a large part of the impact that the image was supposed to have on the audience was taken from him, and in many poems, perhaps what happened is the opposite, and the audience may expect dark and lighter images, but the contrast created attracts attention. . In the selected color palette, we tried to use colors that are attractive to the audience and match the stories that each video tells.

In the end, Nazer Fasihi stressed: In general, we used the elements of architecture and technology to create new and different images so that the audience can communicate with the image in addition to the music, and I hope that this has happened.
