Zeta | Superintelligence

Kyro brought me on to animate this explainer for Zeta. The goal was to showcase their conversational AI agent, Athena, while keeping things abstract and full of energy.

Most of the animation was done in After Effects. Rive was used to simulate the “multiplying circles” shot at 0:12.
