The Setup
A staircase ran up the stage centre, with a horizontal LED surface at the top
and a second LED covering the full height on the reverse side. The stage rotated.
The whole structure read differently depending on where it stopped.
The setup was framed by a huge П-shaped arch.

Art Direction
Anastasia Slabinyak built impressive poster-led visual language: Soviet brutalist poster tradition running against contemporary typography, with the geometry of the setup worked into the compositions.
Sequences used the staircase and its outline as parts of the image, including naked-eye 3D concepts.
The impeccable visual style Anastasia developed helped to close several minutes of content quickly, and it turned out extremely photogenic.
