The screens were put behind mirrored glass within intricate art deco gold frames. This gives the graphics the feeling of floating out of a reflective surface. We accented the designs with a series of high contrast black and white footage, which apears to be reflecting on the glass. One of the screens is extra wide and includes an interactive directory.&nbsp; This project was entirely my design, concept and animation. The interactive portion was then programmed in by the team at ESI.Role: Art Direction, Design, AnimationClient: ESI <img width="1920" height="540" width_o="1920" height_o="540" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/ad5c8c4022ae630c65c5172ee30405c2ba9165e91b9a2b8097a14134514fa157/1stAve_ID_Animatic-0-00-20-15.png" data-mid="207223376" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/ad5c8c4022ae630c65c5172ee30405c2ba9165e91b9a2b8097a14134514fa157/1stAve_ID_Animatic-0-00-20-15.png" /> <img width="3861" height="1096" width_o="3861" height_o="1096" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/1379d7fab9b43825613c31d546c4125de9b7aa63948ff36a67845b7a4cbda103/Exchange_1stave_BuildingHistory_01.jpg" data-mid="207215540" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/1379d7fab9b43825613c31d546c4125de9b7aa63948ff36a67845b7a4cbda103/Exchange_1stave_BuildingHistory_01.jpg" /> <img width="1920" height="545" width_o="1920" height_o="545" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/fed0ce02176ac2d4619ea02a37e3b6df7966e626a4af3560e67ba72d214a639f/1stAve_Events_Animatic-0-00-08-19.png" data-mid="207223435" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/fed0ce02176ac2d4619ea02a37e3b6df7966e626a4af3560e67ba72d214a639f/1stAve_Events_Animatic-0-00-08-19.png" /> <img width="1920" height="545" width_o="1920" height_o="545" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/2eb2dc426912851325c2284013c9586d0a10f23ced1a44012874f93a8a29fadc/1stAve_Weather_Animatic-0-00-06-08.png" data-mid="207223440" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/2eb2dc426912851325c2284013c9586d0a10f23ced1a44012874f93a8a29fadc/1stAve_Weather_Animatic-0-00-06-08.png" /> <img width="1920" height="545" width_o="1920" height_o="545" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/6b02a49069cbec8155fcb5c6eb49159527212102a3f895b42a0a0ed676f88757/1stAve_Weather_Animatic-0-00-17-04.png" data-mid="207223441" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/6b02a49069cbec8155fcb5c6eb49159527212102a3f895b42a0a0ed676f88757/1stAve_Weather_Animatic-0-00-17-04.png" />
