Healthy titbit
Healthy titbit
“Healthy titbit with Kika” is a TV show being hosted by Kika Kocian who is cooking simple and healthy food and besides the recipes, she’s also talking about the food itself, its characteristics and influence on the human body.
For this show we created the whole visual identity and fortunately, we had a big freedom in doing that. We based our work on the discussions with the host and author of the show, on her thoughts, on the things that she likes and the moodboards that she put together. The main part of the whole identity was the opening credits. Its visual concept was then used to create different other elements for the show that are being used during editing, such as inserts, bars, strips and others. The whole concept is hand drawn and it’s based on the particular food and typical dotted red dishes that are being used hugely in the show. The videos are made as a combination of cut-out and hand-drawn 2D animation.

365.Spotify
365.Spotify
Together with our client 365.bank we created an animated online video for Spotify. Since 365.bank already has their own visual and way of communication set up, this project is not stepping out of it, it works with well-known characters, visual elements and typical color palette. The target group of this project are young people used to “live” in an online space and the visual style and the dynamics of the animation are adjusted to them.
For this particular cooperation, we got a ready storyboard from the client. It was necessary to create all the assets for the animation and together with the sound studio we then recorded the voiceover and music. Taking into consideration the trends in online communication, we wanted the video to work also without the sound so we placed key words from the voiceover directly to the video. Since Spotify is being used on different platforms, we created the video both in horizontal and vertical versions.

Let’s read together
Let’s read together
A short animated video for a bookstore chain Panta Rhei. The original task was to simply animate the logo, which has the shape of an infinity sign. We tried to take this task and push it a little bit further taking into account the idea behind which was “Let’s read together” and which the client wanted to get to the video.
We suggested creating 3 different situations in which people are usually reading together. Then we took them and transformed them to our 2D hand-drawn animation. To achieve simplicity and formal purity the situations were put into a smaller space in the middle of the screen where all the attention of the viewer goes. Our task in the end was to create the complex solution – starting with the script, going through the visual concept, ending with the animation.

Let’s take the train
Let’s take the train
We created a time-lapse animated video for ZSSK Slovak rail based on the real schedule of train operation in Slovak republic. The animation shows 24 hours of train movement squeezed into 1 minute showing all the trains that are driving at a precise hour.
We created the visual concept of the video, a 3D map of Slovak republic with most of the railways preserving their realistic position and path. Part of the job here was also to prepare “the script” – in this case it meant to translate the real time schedule of the trains into our squeezed timeline to be able to keep the video as realistic as possible. Considering the technology, it is a combination of 3D and 2D animation. 3D animation creates the base while 2D helps us with adding some additional information.

Vision 2030
Vision 2030
“Vision 2030” is an animated online video that we created for our client ZSSK. The aim of this video is to show a vision of the future and changes that could contribute to sustainable mobility, to increasing the quality of life, to higher security, to better traffic flow and more ecological transport. It was important to show the way how to achieve this vision during the following years.
For this project, we created a complex solution starting with the script made together with the client, going through the visual concept and art direction to the final production. It is a combination of 3D animation and 2D infographics. The video is situated into two different worlds – first, realistic shows a train driving through Slovak nature and cities. The other is technical and monochromatic and takes the viewer into the future full of innovations.
