AQUA | Collect the Light ✨

For my entry, I wanted to explore something simple, tactile, and a bit hypnotic.

AQUA is a small interactive underwater experience where you control a jellyfish drifting through a fluid environment. The idea was to create something that feels alive, not just visually, but in motion and response.

The core focus of this piece is movement and atmosphere:

- Soft, organic motion inspired by underwater life

- A minimal interaction loop that feels calm and intuitive

- A playful balance between control and natural flow

Instead of building a “game” in the traditional sense, I approached this as a micro-experience, something you can enter, feel, and explore for a few moments. Hope you enjoy it! 🙌

Together with Billie Bonkers, we translated a complex mobility policy for the City of Turnhout into a clear and accessible 120-second animated explainer.

The animation explains how the city is working toward a more accessible, liveable, and future-proof Turnhout. By simplifying policy language, structuring the information, and using approachable visuals, we made the plan easier to understand for a broad audience.

Our role focused on turning complex information into a clear animated narrative that informs citizens without overwhelming them.

Translating a mobility policy document into a 120 second explainer without it turning into a wall of text on screen is genuinely hard, and the isometric city illustration style makes it feel warm instead of bureaucratic. How involved was the city in reviewing the script versus just handing you the policy doc?

I usually see dropdowns with a fade in and offset animation, so I thought I'd try animating it on the component level and see what happens.

This is the result. (Slowed down to emphasize the animations)

Which one do you prefer?

Do you think small interactions like this are worth spending time on?

It's definitely worth the time; these micro-animations are part of the overall product experience.

I liked the left option better because it seamlessly transitions into the component, while the right option, when offset, seems to lift the list off the header.
