Mapping LED Rings with Resolume Arena 5 and After Effects

February 22, 2016

With Resolume Arena 5 you can now controlled LED fixture via the DMX protocol. The type of LED fixtures are limited to rectangular grids and strips.  However with a little trick in After Effects we are able to properly map LED rings, allowing for more complex and dynamic circular animations to properly render.

Gear I'm using:ENTTEC DMX USB Pro MK2 - Uses the DMX protocol to communicate to various devices ENTTEC Pixie Driver 5V - Controls 5V LEDs compatible with WS2811, WS2812 & WS2812b Adafruit NeoPixel Ring 16 RGB - Really great LED rings.
