AVENUE 5

HBO’s new Sci-Fi comedy series, centered around perhaps the most luxurious and technically advanced spaceship on TV (on the surface, at least), required multiple screen graphics to help enhance the storytelling for Armando Iannucci's latest creation. Obviously Territory Studio is no stranger to creating screen graphics in the Sci-Fi world, but this project allowed the studio to delve into the Sci-Fi comedy world. The storybeats have a different flow to that required of a more serious script, making it an interesting and fun change for the team. Working across all 8 episodes of this first season, Territory created graphics to complement the narrative, from providing a high-end, but playful, to low-tech and low-budget. Initially designing graphics we felt were fit for purpose, they evolved as the story developed and we realised pushing the aesthetic to be bigger and more flamboyant was a better direction. Such a cool project to work on. I was asked to design and animate plenty of screens for all different section of the huge spaceship, as each area had its very own visual language and mechanics. Love it! Done @ Territory Studio, London
