Experience the mesmerizing teaser film announcing Afrojack for the LA Galaxy vs. LAFC match at the Rose Bowl. A visual journey through interstellar space that captivates from the first frame.

In a groundbreaking collaboration with LA Galaxy, RIOT has once again pushed the boundaries of creative innovation, this time for the much-anticipated 2024 season opener where multi-platinum DJ and producer Alesso performed during the match against Inter Miami CF at Dignity Health Sports Park. The concept was clear from the outset: to transport LA Galaxy into the cosmic realm, symbolizing a new era of unparalleled experiences both on and off the field. Our team envisioned a journey that was not just a visual feast but an immersive narrative, leading viewers through a galaxy of fantasy and space-driven imagery. From satellites navigating extreme space weather to the mysterious depths of anti-gravity liquids and rivers, every frame was meticulously crafted to captivate and intrigue. “This project stands as a testament to the magic that unfolds when artists are given the liberty to explore, create, and innovate without constraints.” Sound design played a pivotal role in this interstellar voyage, with meticulously synchronized shots leading to an explosive Alesso drop, propelling the teaser into the stratosphere. The music, provided by Alesso himself, was not just a backdrop but the heartbeat of the video, elevating the visual experience into a sensory explosion. The narrative was […]

In the opulent world of jewelry, few names resonate as profoundly as Jean Schlumberger.

The Voice Behind the Legend: Recreating Jean Schlumberger’s Essence at Tiffany & Co. In collaboration with the Tiffany archives, we embarked on a captivating journey to unearth and recreate the Voice of Schlumberger for an exclusive installation at their newly renovated flagship Fifth Avenue store. The challenge was immense; the mission was to simulate a voice without a reference point. Our extensive research took us through Schlumberger's background, his upbringing, and any existing literature that might hint at his vocal tonality. Despite the hurdles, the intricacies of this endeavor were also what made it exhilarating. Breathing Life into a Silent Legacy A notable highlight of our creation process involved crafting a soundscape spanning three distinct zones, emanating […]
