C/O Digital

Client:
C/O Berlin Foundation

Concept, script, layout & animation:
Jonas Meyer

Speaker:
Caroline Tyka

Sound design & composing:
Leonard Biwer

In the summer of 2022, I was asked by the renowned C/O Berlin Foundation to produce an animated explainer video for the launch of the new online platform C/O Digital. C/O Digital is a virtual space dedicated to the exploration of digital visual cultures, where artists, technologists, and activists engage with central issues of nowness.

In a three-week sprint, I first developed a dramaturgical approach including a voiceover text, then created a design concept for the layouts of the individual scenes, and finally animated the entire film in Adobe After Effects.

C/O Digital was released on July 14, 2022, during a big birthday party — exactly 22 years after C/O Berlin was founded.

By the way: This enormous project speed would not have been possible without the close and trusting collaboration with the entire C/O Berlin team as well as the spontaneous commitment of speaker Caroline Tyka and sound designer and composer Leonard Biwer.

A special thanks goes to animation designer Kiel D. Mutschelknaus and his fabulous Space Type Generator, from which I was allowed to integrate some live scenes into the video.
