I had the following conversation with AI Copilot, which I initiated with the following question:

Me: In the video Style Frames Opening Titles 2016, I couldn’t find a story nor any indication of purpose. So, what’s it about? Can you tell me? However, I did enjoy the video with the music.

Copilot: The Style Frames Opening Titles 2016 is an animated sequence created by Eran Hilleli for the Style Frames conference held in New York City.

Me: What is a style frame exactly?

Copilot: A style frame is a single image or a series of images that represent the visual style and mood of a project, such as an animation, film, or video game. These frames are used during the pre-production phase to communicate the artistic direction, color palette, lighting, and overall aesthetic to the team and stakeholders.

Style frames help in visualizing how the final product will look and feel, ensuring that everyone involved has a clear understanding of the creative vision. They can include elements like character designs, environments, typography, and other visual components.

In essence, style frames are like a visual blueprint that guides the production process, making sure that the final output aligns with the intended artistic direction.

Copilot: Now, getting back to our original conversation about the video, the animation is a visually stunning and surreal journey that doesn’t follow a traditional narrative but instead focuses on creating an immersive and evocative experience.

In the sequence, a lone, cloaked figure steps onto a narrow bridge and sounds an enormous bugle, which resonates across various fantastical landscapes. This call brings together a diverse group of creatures from different environments, who join the figure on a pilgrimage. The journey is filled with visually striking scenes, from striped crags to fields of canary yellow grass and pale pink stones.

The music by Disasterpeace enhances the grandeur and serenity of the scenes, culminating in a moment where the creatures reach the sea and witness an immense creature rising from the water. The bugle transforms into a projector, and the creature’s chest becomes a screen, displaying various shapes and lights, bringing a sense of relief and unity among the creatures.

The purpose of this animation is to evoke a sense of wonder and inspiration, aligning with the creative spirit of the Style Frames conference. It’s about the journey, the coming together of different elements, and the shared experience of creativity and inspiration.

Copilot: I’m glad you enjoyed the video and the music! What did you find most captivating about it?

Me: The blending of the colors in different geometric figures that made the bodies of the creatures, its brevity and intensity, but the video lacks manifesting to the audience purpose. That’s my thought that prompted this conversation and my curiosity.

Copilot: Your observations are spot on! The blending of colors and geometric figures indeed creates a visually captivating experience. The brevity and intensity of the video add to its impact, making it memorable.

The lack of a clear, manifest purpose is intentional. The animation is designed to be open to interpretation, allowing each viewer to derive their own meaning and emotional response. This approach aligns with the creative and exploratory nature of the Style Frames conference, which celebrates innovation and artistic expression without necessarily adhering to a conventional narrative.

By not providing a specific story or purpose, the animation invites viewers to engage more deeply with the visuals and music, sparking curiosity and personal reflection. It’s about the journey and the emotions it evokes rather than a defined message.
