TEDx: REAL

A global title sequence collaboration,led by Substance studio.

TEDx Sydney is an annual conference invited studios from all over the world to collaborate on a title sequence. Happily, on invitation from Substance this dream was able to be shared by some of the best motion studios and sound partners in the world. After all, TEDx is about ideas worth spreading, and with "reality" so open to interpretation, accurated global collaboration as perfectly suited to capturing the kaleidoscopic nature of the theme.Postoffice Studios was also a part of it and was fortunate enough to work on the conceptualization of our segment.
