My role:

I handled all aspects of the project, starting from sketching the idea and establishing the visual style of the metropolis and glitches. I was responsible for designing and creating 3D models for all the speaker names and neon signs. Additionally, I directed the shots and edited the initial raw cut.

Description:

yoorius Designyatra 2019 convened around 1,200 delegates at the Grand Hyatt, Goa, from September 19th to 21st. Over three days, 25 speakers representing fields spanning industrial design, graphic design, visual communications, typography, illustration, product design, spatial design, architecture, and technology took the stage.

Contrarianism embodies challenging dominant narratives, rebelling against stereotypes, and forging new paths. It's not about thinking outside the box; it's about dismantling the box itself.

Design's greatest triumphs owe much to contrarian thinking. Without these disruptors, design would stagnate, remaining a missed opportunity and mundane commodity. This year, Kyoorius Designyatra puts a spotlight on contrarians – those who reshaped design, ushering in new trends and unconventional perspectives. These visionaries had the insight to spot hidden opportunities and the courage to defy conventions and seize them. KDY will honor these design rebels who have sparked polarizing discussions and will also challenge conference norms.read across three days, ranging from industrial design to graphic design, visual communications, typography, illustration, product design, spatial design, architecture, and technology.

Process

Future city

We wanted to explore the idea of a futuristic city, something in between Blade Runner and the contemporary metropolis in India. All these cities have big neon signs and I connected the name of the speakers with the branding.
The graphic design is simple and retro, referencing to some neighborhoods in Mumbai.

Speakers Titles:

I also animated the speakers titles and background animations for the conference, every design was a provided by the client, I remixed the style and amplified the punk/xerox style with some simple gif style animations.
