Snap Inc. (NYSE:SNAP) today unveiled Duck Duck by Harmony
Korine, an experimental short film shot using Spectacles 3 to
explore storytelling in 3D. Released November 2019, Spectacles 3
are equipped with dual HD cameras to capture three-dimensional
photos and videos, unlocking the ability to transform Snaps with 3D
Effects.
Best known for Kids, Spring Breakers and most recently, Beach
Bum, cult filmmaker Harmony Korine experiments with Spectacles 3 as
a cinematic tool, overlaying augmented reality onto
three-dimensional scenes for immersive storytelling.
Using Spectacles 3, Harmony Korine transforms Miami into an
unbridled dreamscape of sound and color in Duck Duck — exploring
the emerging disciplines of wearable cinema, augmented reality, and
immersive, spontaneous storytelling. The film’s hybrid reality is
brought to life through 3D Effects developed for the film, which
will be available to Spectacles 3 users on Snapchat.
“Spectacles 3 is a completely unique format that shifted my
perspective on film, narrative, what’s animated and what’s real,”
said Harmony Korine. “By combining a first-person point of view and
3D Effects, the sunglasses inhabit their own hyper-personal
universe, and helped inspire the multi-sensory experience of Duck
Duck - like you can walk into this world when you watch it.”
“Both Harmony Korine and Spectacles are helping push the
boundaries of immersive storytelling,” said Steen Strand, Director
of Hardware, Spectacles. “With the ability to capture depth like
your own two eyes, Spectacles 3 brings Harmony Korine’s unique
vision for Duck Duck to life, showing how this new technology can
inform the future of creative storytelling.”
With support from Gucci, Duck Duck premiered during a private
event at Art Basel in Miami Beach on the evening of December 4.
Harmony Korine’s long standing relationship with Gucci includes
photographing the 2019 Holiday “Gift Giving” campaign, the Cruise
2020 Adv Campaign, the Pre-Fall 2019 collection lookbook and Men’s
Tailoring Adv Campaign, as well as a limited-edition Artbook, Gucci
by Harmony Korine. In June 2019, Gucci presented a cinematic
exhibit at the Gucci Hub in Milan dedicated to him, Harmony Korine
– The Crack-Up, during Men’s Fashion Week.
As part of this collaboration, Harmony Korine and Gucci
partnered with Spectacles to create limited edition Spectacles x
Gucci by Harmony Korine. The limited edition Spectacles 3, created
exclusively for Art Basel Miami Beach 2019, were inspired by
Harmony Korine and designed with Gucci for creators. Snapchatters
around the world can virtually try on Spectacles x Gucci by Harmony
Korine here.

limited edition Spectacles x Gucci by Harmony Korine will debut
during Art Basel in Miami Beach from December 5 to 8 at The Melin
Building in Miami Art District: 3930 NE 2nd Avenue, Ste 200, Miami,
