The brief

NBC Sports’ Upfront presentation introduced the network’s upcoming year of sports coverage. The graphics needed to connect different sports and footage within a consistent visual treatment while working with the stage’s unique shape.

My role

I developed the visual direction and created the motion graphics, including layouts, animation and transitions. The work brought typography, footage and graphic elements together for the presentation.

The approach

Glowing light paths, circular forms and atmospheric lighting establish the visual language. Bold type and animated reveals carry that language between sequences, with the layouts designed around the stage rather than a standard video frame.
