We made art come alive! Societe Generale has a lavish art collection at their Paris headquarters, but the rule is; artwork can't travel abroad.

For the SGCIB Asia-Pacific event team that was a big caveat, and that's where we came in. 

Using our knowledge of art history we dissected some 20 different art pieces, and based on stills, created tailor-made animations for each of them to reveal their uniqueness.

Projected on huge screens during SGCIB's events, this allowed our client to raise their profile and help their guests discover great artwork in an entertaining way.

"The feats of a conquering boxer or of a billiard's player on the world's stage can raise the hope and spirits of millions amongst the destitute" said Corazon Aquino at Time Magazine's 60th Anniversary - Asian Heroes Party. 

We were witness to an amazing crowd of Asia's most influential people; from "Mr. Condom" Mechai Viravaidya to Momofuku Ando who invented the Cup Noodles, and even Rudy Hartono who redefined Badminton in the 70's!

We used an elegant motion graphic layout to condense a memorable evening and let the stars shine.

For their extravagant launch party Woori needed a video to announce the debut of their new Global Market to 250 of Asia-Pacific's top bankers and officials. 

We proposed to cast CNN Financial News journalist Lorraine Hahn to anchor the video and spin the story as if it was an interview-based financial reportage. We also proposed to play a ubiquity trick, starting the story in a studio, continuing in Seoul, then seamlessly transitioning to Hong Kong.

To the surprise of everyone in the room, the CEO agreed to the strategy and immediately awarded us the job.

New brand identity? No problem.

Uniplan is an event company that needed to exhibit their credentials and unveil their new corporate identity.
Using dynamic motion graphic animations we gave life to the still pictures that we were provided with, and pumped up the pulse of Uniplan's new heartbeat.

To celebrate the 20th Anniversary of the French Chamber of Commerce and Industry in Hong Kong we jumped into the past and organised a giant timeline. From the Kai Tak closure to the Octopus Card, from World Cup 98 to SARS; we selected events that struck a chord in the French expatriate community.

But first, to swing into animation we had to source a number of visual elements. Try to count them as you watch the video and you will understand the challenge.

This video was the highlight of the evening, triggering many discussion between the FCCIHK members and their guests.

Let's do the Time Warp again!

In the age of attention deficit hyperactivity disorders, 140 max-character IMs, and 15-seconds video clips, watching a 12-minute long documentary might seem like a sizeable task. But there are people who dedicate their lives to saving others, and that doesn't happen in a snap.
Hong Kong University - Pasteur Research Centre needed a corporate documentary to present their latest activities and appeal for research sponsorship. Filmages created a whole set of communication materials, including a brochure, a website, and a 12-minute long video.
This enabled HKU-PRC to secure an endowment fund and further contribute to the fight against infectious diseases.

We also produced a full scale exhibition at HKU Museum and Art Galleries (UMAG) "From the Plague to new Emerging Diseases"

This is the earliest of Filmages' work. At that time Fred had recently resigned from his previous company, Lemon-Asia, a leading internet design company of which he was partner. 
But Fred wanted to move toward video production, and the opportunity came with this movie, produced for the Hong Kong Airport Authority. The airport's extension "SkyCity" was just a prospective project at that time, and HKAA needed a clear explainer video of the project's mass plan and overall circulation. Although our technical capabilities were not in the top tier, the clear and solid flow of our script and storyboard impressed the stakeholders greatly, and we won this project against much more established video production agencies which had placed high-end 3D rendering over content.
Ultimately it helped HKAA to get the go-ahead from government officials.
