The Gates Foundation and their global partners had been working very hard coordinating remotely during the pandemic. To recognize and appreciate the amazing work that the employees have achieved, the Gates Foundation and Dave Shanae reached out to me to shoot a live in-studio in 2021. The in-studio was featured on their internal call reaching 3,000+ employees and partners around the globe.

Animation Process
I started the creative concepting on the animation that would be projected behind the band. Dave Shanae wanted the creative direction to involve flowers as a call back to his recent EP project. I expanded this idea into transporting the band in a skybox with a rotating flower acting as the sun. All animation work was designed in Blender.
