The Story 
故 事

船愛故事講述在 1960 年代,台灣政府因在越戰中支持美國,提供高雄港作為美軍戰艦暫時停靠的地方。船隻帶來的大量進口商品不僅讓大溝頂的百貨行商機繁盛、人聲鼎沸,服飾店也得以跟上世界時尚流行,歌曲中唱著「來喔!來喔!進口貨攏佇遮!」的歌詞就是當時的高雄繁榮的寫照。

而高雄也因此成為美國軍人的絕佳度假勝地,間接帶動了七賢三路酒吧林立,劇中的酒女小紅對英挺帥氣的美國少校麥克就是在這樣一段美妙的背景下譜出一首首動人情曲。



To You of The Future.
序 曲 給 未 來 的 你


第一首歌,呈現古說書人講述台灣故事,以剪紙風格呈現抽象與奇幻的視覺。

The story of Taiwan is told by an ancient storyteller, 
and the abstract and fantastical visuals are presented in a paper-cut style.

台上演員進行演出的同時,背景以建築物及招牌營造氛圍,
重現當時繁榮的高雄街道。

While the stage actors perform, buildings and signs create an atmosphere in the background, 
recreating the prosperous streets of Kaohsiung at that time.

顏氏海盜船船身設計符合衛武營建築物的整體外觀,藉由鏡頭的運動,
讓觀眾體會超大型海盜船停靠在岸的壯闊。

The hull of Ngan's pirate ship is designed to match the overall appearance of the Wei Wu Camp building, and through the movement of the camera, the audience can experience the magnificence of a mega pirate ship docked on shore.

中間擺放巨型羅盤,引導當時來往台灣進行貿易的船隻,
船隻受指引從建築物左右兩側緩慢駛進,呈現當時海上貿易的繁華。

A giant compass is placed in the middle to guide the ships trading to and from Taiwan at that time, 
and the ships are guided to enter slowly from the left and right sides of the building, 
showing the prosperity of maritime trade at that time.

緩緩游過這一片海洋的巨鯨,縱身躍起,揚起的水花成了斑斕的極光彩虹,
牠的背脊成為台灣島嶼的山脈,乘載著海上波光的一切。


The giant whale slowly swam across the ocean, leaping up and raising the water into a rainbow of aurora borealis.
Its backbone becomes the mountain range of the island of Taiwan, carrying all the maritime glow of the sea.

投影難度在於總建物深度跨度達200公尺,建物形狀差異極大,且建物頂峰距離最前方相當遙遠,觀眾視角無法預測。故我們設定主要投影目標在建物最前的「雙翼」以及「月亮」部位,讓視覺體驗最完整地呈現。


The difficulty of the projection is that the total depth of the building spans 200 meters, the shape of the building varies greatly, and the peak of the building is quite far from the forefront, so the viewer's angle of vision is unpredictable.
Therefore, we set the main projection targets at the "wings" and "moon" areas at the front of the building to provide the most complete visual experience.
