Thrive Abu Dhabi

The brief

Thrive is checkout.com’s annual global event, hosted in a different country each year. For the 2025 edition in Abu Dhabi, this film opened the event before the speakers took the stage.

My contribution

Working as a freelance collaborator with EMC3, the production company running the event, I edited and created motion graphics for the opening film.

The final master was built specifically for the event’s three-screen stage setup. The work had to be considered as a single presentation across the stage, rather than a conventional film on one screen.
