CONVERSE DESIRE
Interactive Experience


2D Lead, Motion Designer, The Mill



Desire was a highly creative collaboration between Converse, Anomaly, and UNIT9 — an interactive, visually rich campaign brought to life through a blend of stylised live-action, layered motion graphics, and detailed matte-painted worlds. Directed by Anrick Bregman, the project aimed to explore states of mind and identity through a surreal visual language rooted in youth culture.

As 2D Lead Artist, I co-led the design and compositing of the graphical elements, working across After Effects and Nuke to integrate an eclectic mix of textures, animated flourishes, and abstract 3D environments. The graphical work required a tactile, almost handcrafted approach, paired with cinematic compositing techniques to build dreamlike transitions and visual metaphors.

We developed an extensive library of digital assets including matte paintings, procedural textures, and animated overlays — all designed to complement the narrative’s introspective and experimental tone. The final piece was layered and nonlinear, balancing interactivity with visual storytelling.
