PanicProgram@PostPanic director Erwin van den IJssel was asked by DisneyXD Netherlands to create a series of channel idents to promote the Dutch channel's summer theme of 'Chain Reactions'.
Erwin decided to build story-based chain reactions which were crafted entirely out of objects kids could find at home. The joy he wanted to capture was that of being able to build things that your parents would raise their eyebrows at (hence the flying squeezy-bottle heron and exploding sports-field). The heros of the idents are the kids themselves - cut out of snapshot photos and placed on cardboard figures. Disney XD also specified that the idents must have a Dutch 'feel' so objects were carefully made from subtely recognisable materials and products, such as the various food tins and bottles, chip boxes for football goals and traditional Dutch biscuits.

Continuing in the theme of PostPanic and Philips product films, director Phil Robson took on the challenge of communicating highly technical LED lighting products produced specifically for the automobile industry by Philips Automotive. A fine balance between product information and a visual direction creative enough to keep the most cynical viewer captive, Phil conjoured up an aesthetic mix of sleek motion graphics and communication design.

PostPanic directing duo, HeyHeyHey, create a stylish trailer for the TEDx event coming up in Amsterdam next month. 'We’ve tried to tell a story without telling an actual story. It’s all about encounters, connections, everyday life, a book and a goldfish, but not really', explain HeyHeyHey cryptically.
Inspired by the Charles Eames quote, 'We work because it's a chain reaction, each subject leads to the next'.
The trailer focuses on a roundabout motion which introduces random characters with individual stories who intersect without realising, to create 'positive twists and new influences' - themes which tie into the TEDx experience. As HeyHeyHey explain, 'free will and chance become mutually reinforcing'.
