TED Conference Visuals

With Colours & Shapes

I created unique 3D motion graphics visuals for three of the sessions for the huge TED 2018 conference which was hosted in Vancouver. I worked closely with Colours & Shapes to develop the themes and style.

Art Direction, 3D Design/Animation and Rendering by me

SESSION 3: NERDISH DELIGHT

"For the Session 3 of the conference, TED Head of Curation Helen Walters says, “We’re throwing off all pretense of cool.” Seven speakers are queued up to discuss the latest advances in their fields of technology. And while the gadgets do all different things, they share one crucial function: the power to make jaws drop."

SESSION 6: WHAT ON EARTH DO WE DO?

"This beautiful blue marble, our shared earth: On a sunny morning in Vancouver, we pack into the darkened TED theater to learn more about its mysteries, its challenges, and how we might help it thrive. There’s no shiny “nature porn” here (well, maybe a little bit) but a clear-eyed look at what’s going right and wrong."

SESSION 9: BODY ELECTRIC

"The speakers in this session remind us that we’re still just made of meat. And that our carbon-based life forms aren’t problems to be transcended but, if you will, platforms. Let’s build on them, explore them, and above all feel at home in them"
