SALTO SCREEN
TECHNOLOGY AND ART
We faced a challenging and unique challenge: transforming the traditional idea of a static painting into a dynamic and engaging visual experience for a vertical reception screen in one of the offices of SALTO. Our client wanted something distinctive, which capture the essence of its brand and transmits its fundamental values: SECURITY, TECHNOLOGY, CLOSENESS, INNOVATION and INTEGRITY.
To meet this ambitious goal, we embarked on creating a 3D digital artwork, meticulously designed and tailored. We conceived an abstract painting in motion, where each element and each animation were a visual manifestation of the company's values. This approach allowed the painting to come to life, creating a focal point in the space that was both a reflection of the brand identity and a piece of contemporary art.
The result was surprising, exceeding all our expectations. What we presented was a completely unique project, exploring little-traveled territory in digital design. The 3D animation for the vertical screen not only met the requirement of being dynamic and different, but also encapsulated the essence of the brand in a visually striking and emotionally resonant. This project became a testament to how technology and art can merge to create meaningful and memorable brand experiences.

CHALLENGES
In taking on this project, we faced unique and challenging challenges, each requiring a creative and technical solution. The first was to create a video that would adapt to a specific aspect ratio and pixel resolution for a large screen. This requirement forced us to think beyond standard formats, adapting to scale and visual clarity.
The conceptual challenge was to abstractly represent concepts such as doors and access. After several rounds of sketches and storyboards, our solution was to illustrate these concepts through several «worlds» in the video, each symbolizing a company value. These«doors»Metaphorical structures allowed transit between worlds, a visual metaphor that turned out to be a complete success.
The color palette was carefully selected to reflect the company colors and create a visual harmony in the environment. Although we initially opted for light and clean tones, we decided to move towards a darker palette but maintaining the corporate colors. This was not only more visually pleasing, but also added a touch of elegance to the design.
Given the magnitude of the screen, every small detail and rendering quality became crucially important. That's why I had the computer rendering the 5000 frames of the perfect loop day and night, in addition to making physics simulations to provide an organic aspect to the video, in line with one of the company's values.
Finally, I added my personal touch to the project: a fusion of symmetrical geometric shapes with organic and natural elements. This approach not only reinforced the company visual identity, but also gave the video a distinctive and memorable character. The result was a work of digital art that not only met the technical and conceptual requirements, but also stood out as a unique and captivating visual piece.
