Wardrobe: App Intro

September 20, 2021 by Jack in 0 Comments

With almost 40,000 new apps released every month, we had to make sure the new Wardrobe app, which allows its users to exchange and borrow high-fashion clothing, would stand out from the crowd. The introduction to the app is the front door for the person using it, so we went above and beyond with this video, welcoming everyone to it in the coolest way possible. Taking a bank of awesome content from the team, including clips of real users of the app, we had fun playing around with it all in very unique ways. RIOT goes the extra mile as always; we took the time to hand-cut real pieces of paper, filmed on a green screen, and then added stop motion to achieve an old-school and hyped look and feel. We ran assets through one of our many vintage video cameras to add true and unique VHS effects, created custom motion graphics for the logo and text moments, and composed mixed media animation layers and textures to help bring fresh, new, and unique vibes to each frame. We also chopped and mashed together some of the wildest and coolest imagery combinations, including a buffering effect called “data moshing” that almost […]

Lexus & WSJ: Leadership Session w/ Dylan Marron

May 14, 2021 by Jack in 0 Comments

Giving a masterclass on empathy, podcaster Dylan Marron, in collaboration with Lexus and WSJ Custom Content sat in front of the RIOT cameras in NYC during the pandemic. Dylan’s “Conversations with People Who Hate Me” podcast and social experiment features his conversations with people who have written negative comments to him online in the past. The experience from the shows and the conversations that followed gave Dylan a bank of knowledge on vulnerability, difficult conversations, and empathy. We shot, edited, and produced this long-form instructional class that dives into deep philosophical layers surrounding negative human interactions and delivers a light and positive visual experience for the viewer. The story is broken down into chapters with a mixture of “to camera” discussion, motion graphics, quirky custom hand-drawn animations, and a multitude of b-roll that was shot in different locations throughout. Our leadership session is one of the rare longer-form pieces of content in the RIOT catalog, and we’re super proud of this creation. We’re excited about future collaborations where we get to test ourselves in the longer-form visual content space further.
