The Challenge

Cartridge Controller and AVNU needed to announce a strategic partnership that solved a critical Web3 gaming friction point, new players getting stuck without gas fees. The solution was innovative but complex: a seamless onboarding flow combining embedded wallets, passkeys, session tokens, and paymaster technology. The task was to distill this technical integration into compelling motion graphics that resonated with both gamers and crypto enthusiasts within an aggressive 24-hour turnaround.

The Creative Brief

Create partnership motion content that communicates:
The Problem: New players arriving without gas/funds
The Solution: One-transaction onboarding with token swapping
The Value: Play games in seconds with self-custodial security
All while showcasing both Cartridge Controller's and AVNU's roles in the ecosystem

The Execution

I designed and produced all motion graphics assets in After Effects, creating a narrative arc that walked viewers through the onboarding journey. I crafted custom illustrations that visualized the technical flow in an accessible, visually engaging way. Beyond the motion itself, I developed the supporting copy and messaging hierarchy to ensure each frame communicated clearly without overwhelming the audience with Web3 jargon.
The design prioritized clarity over complexity—breaking down the multi-step process (arrive → swap → play) into intuitive visual beats that kept pace with the narrative flow.

Timeline & Delivery

Completed and launched in under 24 hours, demonstrating rapid creative execution without compromising quality or clarity.

The Result

The partnership motion launched successfully on X (Twitter), effectively communicating the value proposition to the community. The streamlined onboarding flow, combined with clear visual communication, helped position both Cartridge Controller and AVNU as leaders in removing Web3 gaming barriers.
