The endless scroll was born from the idea of mirroring routines of Generation Z and how the society is overly saturated by huge amounts of visual content via many different digital platforms. This over saturation seems to be very dynamic can also leave us to feel numb.
I believe ‘Movin’ is one of the works I loved working on the most. It approaches a universal problem (moving out) with humour and transparency and it reflected a point in my life. Moreover, practically applying different fields of design such as branding, copywriting animation and 3D was very exciting. It felt complete.
I used VR for creating a short 360° game and was testing it with the Oculus, but apart from that I also found it very exciting to be able to model spaces with gravity sketch for example.
I think the idea of identities and what a person can be. The ability to choose from anything and everything. The metaverse is a place to dream, but with that, it could also be a place for you to be you.
Wow, hard question. I like creatives that make you think, or feel. I had this experience with Igor Studio after experiencing their VR experience named ‘Symphony’. Also I am a huge fan of, Maotik, Studio Dumber, Domestic data streamers, How&How, Lola Mullen Lowe and many more.
