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.

Opening of the Academic Year – Turning a Moment into a Message
For TU Delft’s Opening of the Academic Year, a single evocative image anchored a comprehensive visual identity—from website banners and email invites to animations, printed materials, and spatial projections. Led by one dedicated designer in collaboration with Live Events, the graphics team wove a cohesive language of color, rhythm, and motion to ensure every touchpoint emotionally resonated. Sound design elevated animated segments, while coordination across teams delivered a polished, immersive experience that transformed a moment into a memorable message.
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.
Radioactivity
The Radioactivity project uses VR to make learning safe and immersive, letting students explore radiation through realistic experiments while teachers guide remotely. By overcoming safety limits and instructor shortages, this innovative VR app democratizes access to hands-on science, transforming how students experience and understand radioactivity across classrooms everywhere.
