In this assignment from School of Motion's Design Bootcamp, I was tasked with designing and animating a video promoting an EDM music festival sponsored by Diesel.
Research on Diesel's Brand Voice led me to conclude that the Diesel brand is representative of the "Smart Rebel" — equal parts sophistication and bold originality. So, I needed the visuals to feel "Diesel Premium" while illustrating aspects of a live EDM experience.
To achieve this, I made heavy use of triangles for their implication of singular, unwavering direction as well as the literal representation of a play button. Chosen textures had to feel intrinsically "premium," representative of luxury in leather and precision in a triangle grid. The colors obeyed Diesel's Red, Black, & White palette. The animation was guided by the chaotic movements of energetic dancing and flashing lights that would be right at home backing the stage of an EDM concert.
