Jidu . I think I move I am
Directon at Tendril
We collaborated with brand design agency Oker to establish a logo reveal and brand film for Jidu – to be unveiled at ROBODAY 2022. Jidu is a new automotive company, co-founded by internet giant Baidu and automaker Geely – launching an L4 autonomous car. Jidu employs AI to drive the future of mobility and reimagine the human-machine relationship through immersive experiences.
By turning the pixel of the logo into a portal, we sought to capture the idea that Jidu is not just another ‘car company’ with powerful autonomous vehicles, but rather a technology & experience company, determined to push humanity forward. Everything we developed visually stemmed from that. We wanted the film to feel extremely immersive and to give viewers a sense of continuous travel and a new, optimistic era of mobility and possibility.
