Pictoplasma Festival Opener 2012

Title: Pictoplasma Festival Opener 2012

We find ourselves in a desolate world where trains stand still and computers flicker in empty offices. Our team at Sehsucht took the idea of the world’s end in 2012 further and produced a beautifully grotesque 2D world. Pink monsters take over a void Berlin on their way to the Pictoplasma Festival, the world’s largest festival of contemporary character design. The Brandenburg State Orchestra performed the music, which was written by David Kamp. The Animation was used as the Pictoplasma festival opener in 2012. It received several merits of recognition including gold at the Bass Awards and Bronze at the Art Director’s Club Germany in 2013.

Awards:

– Gold in Special Day/ Event Promo (Bass Awards, 2013)
– Bronze in Motion Graphic/ 3D (Art Director’s Club Germany, 2013)
