Platypodes
Platypodes is a surreal space scene where two mushroom-covered platypodes swim in unison, orbiting through a dreamy, technicolour universe.

This piece began as a digital illustration in Photoshop. We’re big fans of turning still visuals into immersive moving worlds.
​
We naturally leaned into bold colour contrasts, textural layers and playful storytelling.
Sometimes there’s no deeper meaning, just the joy of making something fun, unexpected and unapologetically strange.
The audio for Platypodes was composed by Will Curry, blending an ethereal, evolving melody with hand-recorded water splashes. These organic sounds were synthesised and carefully timed to reflect the movements of the platypodes as they drift through space, adding atmosphere, rhythm and a hypnotic sense of immersion to the scene.​
