ABOUT

"digital_art_is_dead" was a fake prank created by Brick Visual under an alias on social media, with the purpose of convincing even seasoned 3d artists to believe the contents being genuine footage.
This was later revealed by Us as an animation, and not real video exposing a collective of artists engaging in illicit graffiti-making, in protest against AI taking their creative jobs.
The short clip is entirely in 3D, while the Instagram set-up character, the anagram Rick B is still available, to understand the prelude context.
An animation breakdown was also produced along with the reveal, describing the concept and production in detail, available to watch on Brick Visual's website.
