Armada came knocking with the challenge of nailing the video for Armin Van Buuren & Martin Garrix's collaboration, featuring UK singer Libby Whitehouse.

I was given a few graphics elements from TWOFIFTYK, who are handling Armin's creative direction, and a rough moodboard, so I was pretty much empty handed.
The video is a mix of stock footage, live footage, motion design elements and a few shots I filmed in Amsterdam on my phone very last minute during a weekend trip.

The center shape was originally created by TWOFIFTYK, but I ended up re-creating it & animating it myself for better use.
The overall project was a classic case of "too many cooks in the kitchen", ending up being a 15+ versions ordeal, testing everyone's patience.

Nonetheless, it was a solid 360° skill test, as it included shooting, editing, grading, motion design, tracking & a few others.
