When it comes to hiring, it’s easier to tame a reckless hustler than it is to instill that dawg in someone

A complex product can have a lot going on visually. The way it's framed can make all the difference in how easily people understand it. In this Airbound drone frame, the front-on composition gives us a clear view of the overall design, while the lighting and surface details help bring out its shape.

Before perception walks into the room, intellect builds the story without you knowing. For burst, we developed the intellect enough to grab it through three distinct worlds.

But being piece of art is also not too bad :) (all shots in the frame are cgi btw)
Your launch film shouldn't be a piece of art. It has to tell a stranger what you make, who it's for and why it's different, fast and with the right feeling. Airbound is proof of how we did that.

A lot of our work on @Airbound_Aero went into making sure you couldn’t tell where it started. CG built to belong alongside the live action. An edit that brings it together. Post production by Vortex

One thing boomers absolutely got right was the hiring process. When someone showed up eager and willing to work, they just hired them on the spot with a firm handshake instead of making them go through 8 rounds of interviews

Every time I land in Singapore I am reminded how much of a GOAT Lee Kuan Yew was. Simply undefeated.

Before it moves, it takes shape. How we built Mandrake’s visual language, from reference boards to the final film.

What happens when we move from discovering biology to designing it? A glimpse into that idea, from our launch film for Mandrake Bio.
