Vivid Sydney 2026 Animation Services

Destination NSW is seeking a creative response, company credentials and an itemised quotation for the provision of Animation services for the Museum of Contemporary Art (MCA) for Vivid Sydney 2026.

Project goals

Vivid Sydney is well established as a core component of Destination NSW’s program of events. This procurement is seeking an experienced and qualified specialist service provider/s to deliver the animation for the projection of Museum of Contemporary Art.

The respondents will be asked to provide a proposal and quotation for the supply of animation services. The full scope of the services is set out in the Request for Quotation at Annexure A of this strategy. Destination NSW does not have relevant skilled or qualified resources in-house and as such the procurement of these services has been common practice for Vivid Sydney for many years.

Scope

This RFQ is seeking responses from Suppliers to produce animated projection content based on an adaptation / interpretation of selected artist/s work for the facade of the MCA during Vivid Sydney 2026. The proposed animation will be produced under the direction of the Festival Director and the Vivid Light Team as well as representative/s from the MCA and other relevant artist(s) and stakeholders.

A selection of digital source material from selected artist/s will be provided once an NDA has been signed by the Supplier. Please contact the Contact Officer noted above for an NDA. It is strongly recommended that the RFQ Applicant provides a creative pitch deck alongside company or lead creative artist / director in response to this RFQ using the 2026 MCA artist source material.

The Supplier will work collaboratively with Destination NSW (DNSW), the MCA (for the respective work), DNSW’s nominated projection equipment company and the respective artist/s and relevant stakeholders, to ensure the projection content meets the creative and operational expectations and outcomes of both DNSW, and the artist who has licensed the rights of their works to DNSW for the Event.
