2021 Impact Awards
2021 felt like we were emerging from a cave, molting and shedding past versions to realize a new kind of existence within a strange new reality. We visualized this through a morphing, iridescent anvil rendering paired with messaging that acknowledges the challenges of the previous two years in a straightforward but sympathetic tone. Ryan Kang worked with us again to develop the intro videos and animations that reflect this theme.
This year was the first time I worked with a larger team to manage the event, allowing me to focus on the creative direction and design executions and taking more of a consulting role on other aspects of the awards.
We received 72 submissions in 2021 and hosted a hybrid event in the studio and over Zoom for those unable to join.
