Serving as an experimental ground for material behavior, geometric control, and construction sequencing, the mock-up allowed the project team to explore soil, stone, and concrete interactions before moving to the larger installation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About the Project<\/strong><br>The documentary examines the interplay of local geology and tilt-up construction through an exploration of soil compaction, rock placement, casting behavior, and early formwork shaping. Inspired by the erosive forces and material stratification of the Arizona landscape, the study reframes the structural and aesthetic capacities of tilt-up by investigating its inherent material potential at a smaller scale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Credits<\/strong><br>Film by&nbsp;<strong>Mitch Bloomquist<\/strong><br>Client:&nbsp;<strong>Tilt-Up Concrete Association<\/strong><br>Award:&nbsp;<strong>Viddy Award Winner<\/strong><br>Category: Non-Broadcast | Long-Form Videos &gt; 3 Minutes | Nonprofit<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Watch the Film<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-vimeo wp-block-embed-vimeo wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Shaping Earth Mock-Up\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/1008084526?dnt=1&amp;app_id=122963\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\">The Tilt-Up Concrete Association is pleased to share that the short documentary\u00a0Shaping Earth Mock-Up, produced as part of Tilt Lab\u2019s early research into double-curvature tilt-up construction, has been recognized with a\u00a0Viddy Award\u00a0in the\u00a0Non-Broadcast \/ Long-Form <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/tilt-up.org\/tilt-uptoday\/2024\/07\/18\/shaping-earth-mock-up-film-wins-viddy-award\/\" title=\"Shaping Earth Mock-Up Film Wins Viddy Award\"> Read more&#8230;<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":19702,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[376,428],"tags":[424,425,421,427,423,426,44,422,419,420],"class_list":{"0":"post-19701","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-documentaries-films","8":"category-research-innovation","9":"tag-documentary","10":"tag-double-curvature-panels","11":"tag-earth-formwork","12":"tag-film","13":"tag-mock-up","14":"tag-phoenix-2024","15":"tag-research","16":"tag-shaping-earth","17":"tag-tilt-lab","18":"tag-viddy-awards"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tilt-up.org\/tilt-uptoday\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19701","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tilt-up.org\/tilt-uptoday\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tilt-up.org\/tilt-uptoday\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tilt-up.org\/tilt-uptoday\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tilt-up.org\/tilt-uptoday\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=19701"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/tilt-up.org\/tilt-uptoday\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19701\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":19704,"href":"https:\/\/tilt-up.org\/tilt-uptoday\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19701\/revisions\/19704"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tilt-up.org\/tilt-uptoday\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/19702"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tilt-up.org\/tilt-uptoday\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=19701"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tilt-up.org\/tilt-uptoday\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=19701"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tilt-up.org\/tilt-uptoday\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=19701"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
