Zero landfill,
by design.

A sustainability animation for Hamad International Airport's zero-landfill commitment — the full recycling journey, terminal to offset, as a single calm visual thread.

Overview

The brief

HIA set a zero-landfill target and needed a film that could open a sustainability summit at 9am and loop on social at 9pm without changing tone.

We animated the recycling journey as one continuous visual line — terminal bin, sorting facility, material recovery, carbon offset — so the viewer followed a single thought from start to finish.

Approach

How we worked

01 — Continuity, not cuts

Designed every transition as a visual handoff, not a cut.

02 — Calm palette

Left the loud greens and oranges for activist posters. Used HIA's own earth tones.

03 — Numbers that matter

Only the stats HIA can defend on stage.

04 — Summit-to-social

16:9 hero cut for the summit LED + 9:16 and 1:1 for social + a 15-second internal-comms cut.
