London-based employee benefits company Reward Gateway established an annual awards event in 2012 to recognise excellence in the employee reward and recognition sector. For the 2014 event, they wanted a 'spectacular' animation to be used to start the awards ceremony. It also needed to complement their brand colours and work seamlessly throughout the evening in a series of bumpers and stings, and as a background to the nomination announcements and individual awards. The film I created was inspired by images from the Hubble Space Telescope, with a gradually building orchestral score and dazzling crescendo. The undulating imagery not only interacts with the music but is literally driven by it throughout.
