Node Fest Opening Titles 2024

Never Sit Still

neversitstill.com

The Node Fest opening titles aimed to inspire and resonate with Australia’s motion design community. We crafted a narrative-driven sequence about the chaotic R&D process, following a character whose state of mind is visualised through a “brain cam.” As their experiments spiral into madness, they ultimately find clarity by embracing simplicity over complexity—a reflection of the creative journey.
