Okta
'AI's First Day'
A new AI agent joins the team; made of gradients, glass, and maybe just a little too much initiative. Once again, we reunited with Jenny, this time to explore what happens when a curious AI agent gets its first day on the job. As Jenny walks the new recruit through a maze of departments and data access points, we zip through glowing portals and see firsthand what responsible access really looks like. Designed to feel grounded yet stylized, we traded bright pop for rich shadows and warm sunlit offices, creating a real-world canvas that lets our CG agent and luminous portals glow with intent. The result is a visual metaphor for trust, control, and just how much Okta keeps in check behind the scenes.

Interactive lighting was key to grounding Buddy and the portals in the space, casting a cool glow onto Jenny through a mix of practical lighting cues and post FX relighting.
PROCESS
Built from floating, modular shapes with an undulating gradient core, Buddy radiates curiosity and charm. An expressive digital companion that feels tactile and alive within the physical world.
Capturing precise on-set data allowed the environment to be reconstructed in CG for animators, providing accurate spatial reference to anchor effects and cast dynamic light onto surfaces.
