OpenAI — Brand Film
Award: Wood Pencil
Wood Pencil / Graphic Design / Motion Design / 2025
Motion is integral to OpenAI’s refreshed identity, bringing clarity, warmth, and engagement to every interaction. Rooted in Academic Beauty, animations are fluid yet precise, reflecting the balance between technology and humanity. “The Point”—the core visual element—pulses, expands, and connects seamlessly, symbolizing data-driven creativity. Typography appears intuitively, UI elements respond naturally, and transitions flow with smooth precision. Sound design enhances motion, creating an orchestrated experience that makes OpenAI’s brand feel alive, dynamic, and deeply human.
