The Brand Identity features Nothing’s Ear (3) campaign, led by art director Fin O’Neill, which reimagines tech advertising through the lens of beauty and jewellery photography. Collaborating with photographer Alex Black and filmmaker Ferina, the campaign uses real lighting, sculptural hair styling, and minimalist metallic tones to position the earbuds as refined, precious objects. The project underscores Nothing’s philosophy of ‘technical warmth’ and its commitment to physical craft over digital renders.
Creative Boom’s article by Tom May explores how Melbourne-based studio Standard Projects created a brand identity for London post-production studio Microdot. The identity draws from cinema’s technical language—edge codes, timecodes, and film grain—to make invisible post-production work visible without breaking its illusion. The result is a restrained, monochrome system that feels authentic to filmmaking while allowing Microdot’s work to shine.
