// Project //
David Salazar of agency A-OK Collective reached out about the opportunity to make some concepts and animations for the inaugural Secret Genius Awards event, and provided a brief and the event brand guide with visuals and PSD files of the static campaign event artwork shown in the concepts at the end of this post to use or incorporate elements of. Grateful that Spotify ended up choosing this text/line animation concept. Philip of A-OK Collective who worked directly with their client provided a visual for updates on the background which were to scale up more the background cropped letters so more abstract and animate the cropped background letters and lighting. Once approved, built out the final animations below. The audio in the videos below are rough sample clips provided and might have errors and is inserted only for the purpose of this project post.
