September 2024 – Global Tour
Billie Eilish doesn’t just perform. She builds a world and pulls her audience into it — and in her latest “Hit Me Hard and Soft” tour, that world is made of light, shadow, raw emotion, and deeply immersive 3D visuals.
Partnering once again with visual pioneers Moment Factory, Eilish has transformed her third studio album into a 360-degree audiovisual narrative, where every note, glitch, and breath is matched with stunning, tech-forward storytelling.
The Stage: A Living, Breathing Landscape
The set is no longer a static stage — it’s an all-encompassing canvas.
Designed with a full LED floor, massive kinetic video towers, a floating platform, and a network of overhead screens, the experience shifts as Eilish moves — always surrounded by digital architecture.
Fans aren’t just watching a show — they’re in the middle of it.
Visual Language: Glitch Meets Infinity
Moment Factory’s approach taps into the album’s dreamy, dark aesthetic, using a palette of analog glitches, fluid FX, and warped cinematography to echo Eilish’s emotional tone.
From flickering black-and-white footage in “Over Now” to underwater dream states in “Wildflower,” each song is its own digital short film — crafted to amplify rather than distract.
Lighting and laser cues don’t follow the beat. They follow the emotion.
GMUNK Joins the Visual Strike Team
For several tracks, Eilish tapped legendary designer GMUNK to deliver custom screen content.
His sequences — described as “analog sci-fi meets heartbreak” — use real camera work, hand-cranked effects, and minimal CG to create a feeling of tactile, vulnerable chaos.
It’s an unexpected but perfect fit for Billie’s lo-fi meets ultra-real sound.
Intimacy Through Scale
What makes this production special isn’t just its technical prowess — it’s the emotional accuracy.
Despite the visual bombast, the show feels intimate. Billie’s vocals are often whispered, her movements minimal — while the screen world around her reacts like a subconscious projection.
It’s massive, but never hollow. Every pixel is in service of the song.
“The goal wasn’t just to be big — it was to feel everything harder,” said a Moment Factory creative director.
“Billie’s music is already visual. Our job was to bring that vision to life — softly, and hard.”
A New Blueprint for Concert Visuals
As the tour moves across continents, one thing is clear: Billie Eilish and Moment Factory aren’t just following the live music rulebook — they’re rewriting it.
In a time when visuals are often just background noise, “Hit Me Hard and Soft” proves that screens can cry too.
