UDEMY SsKO Opening Video 2025

Summary

I was brought on board by fellow designer Ashleigh Robertson to contribute to Udemy's Sales and Success Kick Off in Las Vegas. My responsibility was to design and animate an engaging opening video that highlighted the company’s sales figures and stats in a dynamic way.

Drawing inspiration from collage and stop motion styles, I incorporated bold graphics and typography to create a fun, fast-paced video.

With a widescreen format over 6000 pixels wide, the challenge was to maintain a visually captivating design that kept the screen full of interesting graphics, ensuring the information was presented clearly and compellingly.

The final result was a high-energy mix of information and creativity, showcasing Udemy’s SKO in a way that left a lasting impression.

Big thanks to Ashleigh, Emma Prendiville, and Stride Connect for inviting me along to help out!

BEHIND THE SCENES:

3 different screengrabs of the event. While the far left and right parts of the screen needed to have additional elements to keep viewer interest, the centre screen housed all the important information. Below you can see the images, you can see the widescreen in action with some of the GFX! Thanks to Leo Cannon and Emma Prendiville for the video!
