The first half of this year was taken up by two large projects for BCC ICCREA. We’re doing the immersive components of the BCC Innovation Festival (a startup festival, we were among the winners of the first edition) and of BCC Arte & Cultura (an effort to catalogue the art and cultural heritage artifacts belonging to the banks of the group). For the latter, we went around Italy digitizing the most complex and 3D objects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Logistics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

At this point it\u2019s not really clear what we\u2019re allowed to publish, as legal departments are surprisingly slow in responding to our queries, so we are going to err on the side of caution. You\u2019ll have to wait until the official announcement before we post the actual works that we\u2019ve digitised, but there shouldn\u2019t be any harm in discussing how we set up the logistics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sadly, these locations were largely connected too poorly to attempt to do the whole trip using public transport. We really wanted to be ecological, but we didn\u2019t find a way to do it in the given time and cost constraints without heavily relying on cars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once we could confirm the availability of the works on a given day we found cheap accommodations on Booking, loaded all the equipment and all the team members in a car, and we generally tried to avoid traveling during working hours. Northern Italy was covered through a series of short trips, while central and southern Italy were covered sequentially, going roughly clockwise. Some extra trips had to be broken out of the main loop, we managed to make that convenient by relying on some really good friends, who very graciously hosted us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The whole thing cost us a bit under \u20ac2000, which is not too shabby for a 3-person team. This figure includes highways, fuel, accommodation and food, but it does not include the wear and tear on my car. Or the fact that I forgot some lenses at a friend\u2019s place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What we digitized<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Again, we’re not supposed to share images of the works, as many of them are copyright encumbered, so stay tuned for the official launch of the project. I don’t think there’s any arm in sharing a list of what we did, though:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
