Podcast: The Delft Code

The brief
The Delft Code is a podcast series in which Seyran Khademi speaks with guests about how AI, data, and design are shaping the world around us.

Behind the scenes
For this production, our focus was on creating a setup that feels visually calm and technically solid. In a conversation-driven format like this, the content should stay central. That means clean camerawork, strong sound, and editing that supports the pace of the discussion without getting in the way. Compared to our live productions, this kind of project depends less on scale and more on detail.

Why this one stood out
What we like about projects like this is the restraint they ask for. There is no need for big gestures. The work sits in getting the details right and making the final result feel effortless. When a conversation flows naturally on screen, that usually means a lot of careful production choices are doing their job in the background.

Producer: Stephan Voogd
Director: Christian Kasius
Camera Operator & Edit: Celine van Benten, Simone Breetveld, Hector Nieman
Sound Engineer: Vincent Groen
