As the need for large scale installations began to dominate the marketplace with the rise of themes parks and IP experiences, John Rivoli spearheaded the development of another technical innovation: 2.5D. A proprietary technique to Rivoli Design Group, the 2.5D process allows for the creation of files that mimic CGI and highly rendered bitmap imagery as vector based art – resulting in flawless reproduction and scalability.
Among Rivoli Design Group’s most noteworthy projects utilizing 2.D technology include the exclusive contract to create all character art and promotion signage for the launch of Warner Bros. World Abu Dhabi UAE theme park and the Hopi Hari Park in Brazil, installation art for the global launch of Nickelodeon Universe, Mall of America and Universal Studios Theme Parks.
