Since 2007, Cat Bird Pictures has been creating vivid, iconic and unforgettable digital landscapes for theater, dance, musicals and other live event spectacles. With a tool kit that includes everything from state of the art digital projectors to repurposed junk TVs, the transporting effects of carefully crafted ambient video to the in-your-face immediacy of live-feed, CBP aims to up the visual ante of every project we’re a part of.
“Worst Whiskey,” an excerpt from Witness Relocation’s INCISION at the Bushwick Starr, December 2010. Projection design + camera operation by Kaz Phillips Safer.
