Rex Animation Festival 2019

Trailer

In 2019 I was asked, together with another designer, to create one of the two opening trailers for the annual Rex Animation Festival in Stockholm. The trailer was to be shown in the hosted cinemas before each screening of films for the more mature audience, as well as being pushed on various social media platforms. They gave us pretty much free hands to do whatever we wanted. I came up with the concept that the audience would be launched through “the door of animation” and then would travel through different contrasting “rooms” and then finally arrive at the same dark screen as it opens on. This would allow it to loop in a nice way on social media as well as working for the cinema to have a “cut to black” before starting the movie. It was a very challenging project with a tight deadline giving the two of us only 1,5 months to go from coming up with the concept to delivering the finished product. On this project I was the lead on the conceptual development, creating the 2D animations as well as doing the sound design. Below are a selection of the animations I did.
