A report in the news about the change in leadership at Nike reminded me of the following application of MakerBeamXL. Studio Mensink makes film props. MakerBeamXL was used to create a dream sequence of Nike x Patta walking on a ceiling. From dream to reality or should we say from reality to dream in this case? MakerBeam can make it help happen.

With our modular beams you can create structures easily. Adjustments are also quick and easy to make. Studio Mensink regularly uses MakerBeamXL when making props. For example, he used our beams when making a part for a Patta x Nike commercial. The shoes had to walk across the ceiling naturally in a dream.

Here is a link to the video. https://youtu.be/re5c3fOm3Zs?si=vJyCokoxI_YRA7K6&t=126

MakerBeamXL was used for a mechanism to imitate the unrolling motion of the foot.

Puppeteered on set in collaboration with RFX Propmaking and after editing, the dream scene looked like this, see picture below.
