Pioneering Tech | Sustainable Aviation
The brief
What does it take to make aviation more sustainable? How can innovation move faster, and what can be done for the existing fleet of aircraft? In this Pioneering Tech video, Rinze Benedictus and Marios Kotsonis share their perspective on these questions.
Behind the scenes
Our role was to translate a complex topic into a compact mini-documentary that feels accessible without losing substance. Sustainability in aviation is a layered subject, so the challenge was to keep the story focused and understandable while still doing justice to the research behind it.
Why this one stood out
This is the kind of project we enjoy because it asks for a balance between content and storytelling. The subject is technical, but the final video still needs to feel clear, engaging, and worth watching for a broader audience.

Media Lab work in progress at the Delft University of Technology NewMedia Centre. Setting up a Virtual production pipeline for education. Testing Unreal Engine and Zero Density Virtual production software with Vive trackers and available equipment in the NewMedia Centre Studio. Subject is a video directed by Maik Helgers about Mars Vehicles presented by Sebastiaan de Vet.
3D Scanner
The Media Lab is developing a 3D scanning service using the Creaform Go Scan, testing workflows and creating user-friendly instructions. The scanner captures detailed models of objects, while a new application will automate optimization and export to formats like glTF and FBX for various applications.
Blended Learning Animations – Who Is the Engineer of the Future?
How do students discover who they want to become? At TU Delft, the Mechanical Engineering faculty paired with the New Media Centre’s Graphics team to address that question through animated storytelling. By developing eight distinct “Engineer of the Future” personas—each with its own narrative, style, and personality—students could see relatable career paths. Hand-drawn illustrations and concise two-minute videos translated complex concepts into engaging scripts, creating a compelling blended learning experience that inspires and informs.
