Moment Factory's "Winter Sweet" Light Show on Atlantic City's Boardwalk Hall

I've been a fan of Montreal's Moment Factory for years (here's my writeup of and videos from their interactive work on the NIN tour from 2008), and over the summer, they created a projection-mapped son et lumière on Atlantic City's Boardwalk Hall, called Duality. I wasn't able to get there over the summer, but on my way back from Maryland for the holidays last night, I stopped in and saw the new winter show, Winter Sweet.  It was a rainy and cold Christmas Eve, but a few other brave souls and I caught the show. The projectors are in pretty substantial weatherproof enclosures, and it seems the whole area survived superstorm Sandy very well (my Sandy pictures here).  Projection mapping to me is sort of a one-trick pony, so it's great that the creators  also incorporated some well-hidden lighting, which you can see up-lighting the arches. I also commend the creators for spending some money on a good sound system!  Often, on these sound and light shows, the sound gets short shrift, but here they used a high-quality surround system, and used it well.  

Moment Factory has a "making of" video too:

“Winter Sweet” - a new, family-friendly, nightly outdoor show - will debut on the famed Atlantic City Boardwalk on Saturday, December 1st, 2012. Created to celebrate the wonders of winter, the new show juxtaposes the beauty and elegance of winter with the childhood joys of snow, candy and holiday icons . Like its sister show, “Duality,” “Winter Sweet” uses sophisticated 3D projections and an original musical score to bring Boardwalk Hall alive night after night. The seven minute show is free and open to the public and will feature three distinct scenes which present very different winter worlds. *** Dès le samedi 1er décembre 2012, pour le plaisir des petits et grands enfants, le nouveau spectacle « Winter Sweet » illuminera le célèbre Boardwalk Hall à Atlantic City Boardwalk. Cette ode féérique aux joies de l’hiver est conçue pour rendre hommage autant à la beauté solennelle de la saison froide qu’aux bonheurs candides et enfantins de la période des fêtes, des folies dans la neige aux sucreries multicolores. Tout comme « Duality », « Winter Sweet » fera usage de projections 3D à la fine pointe et d’une composition musicale originale pour métamorphoser le Boardwalk Hall, soir après soir. Le spectacle de sept minutes, qui mettra en scène trois univers hivernaux très différents (mais tout aussi magiques les uns que les autres), sera gratuit et ouvert au public pour plusieurs mois. www.momentfactory.com

I've yet to find any sort of dedicated website for the show (which is unfortunate), so you have to dig through AC's general tourist site. As of today, this link has details on the show.  But if you're in AC, it's definitely worth checking out.
