10 years of branding, creative & art direction for GIPHY. Be Animated.
Office designs brought our animated brand into a physical space: the logo exploded into communal seating, characters from our GIFs were printed on pillows, GIF diffusion adorned fabric accents, while knick knacks and animated neon riffed on animated self-expression and pop-culture ephemera.
Dark Igloo kickstarted GIPHY's original content library, shot the first Reaction Shoot™, watched some of our work attain meme status, directed brand videos, and set the styles that would guide thousands of commissions.
