A vital, vibrant motion language, a minimalist layout, thoughtful UI and a lineup of dots, dashes, sliders and imagery, one campaign video to capture 12 months of creativity.
The ambition at photo-editing favourite, VSCO, was to produce a Holiday campaign encouraging users to view their year of creativity in retrospective via the photos and videos they had produced.
The campaign pulled in references to the app’s photo presets and integrated key elements, with the UI slider becoming a character in its own right – a playful, curious guide for the viewer.
Defining the motion of the slider became an exploratory obsession. Prototyping in motion tests from the first week, iterating on levels of speed, fluidity and weight, the team were able to quickly define a ‘personality’ for a simple dot.
"How can you make a circle celebrate creativity? Is it possible to make a circle look deflated and defeated? The characters we create don't always have to be human shaped, sometimes characters can be found in the simplest geometric forms."
