PROJECT

London Thames Panorama – Ultra‑Wide DOOH Animation for Dufry

Project overview

A Sweeping Visual Journey Across the Thames

This 60‑second ultra‑wide panoramic animation captures London’s iconic skyline in a calm, photorealistic sweep along the River Thames. Designed specifically for large‑format DOOH displays, the piece presents a continuous, atmospheric view of the city—featuring landmarks such as Big Ben, the London Eye, The Shard, and Tower Bridge. Subtle water ripples and drifting clouds add life to the scene, creating a refined, ambient visual experience ideal for high‑traffic public environments.

THE BRIEF

Showcasing London Through Elegant Panoramic Motion

The brief called for a clean, expansive animation that celebrates London’s architectural identity without overwhelming viewers. The piece needed to feel premium, calm, and timeless—perfect for digital billboards, transit hubs, and architectural LED installations. The ultra‑wide format required a composition that maintained clarity, balance, and visual depth across an unusually wide canvas.

THE PRODUCTION

Photorealism, Atmosphere & Ultra‑Wide Composition

Production focused on crafting a panoramic environment with natural lighting, subtle motion, and precise landmark placement. Key elements included:

A sweeping skyline composition featuring London’s most recognisable structures
Gentle water animation with soft ripples reflecting the cityscape
Drifting cloud layers adding atmospheric depth and realism
Natural daylight grading for a clean, photorealistic aesthetic
Seamless looping to support continuous DOOH playback
Ultra‑wide 5.4:1 layout optimised for large digital billboards and transit displays

The result is a balanced, immersive visual that feels both expansive and serene.

THE OUTCOME

A Calm, Iconic Panorama Built for Large‑Format Impact

The final animation delivers a polished, atmospheric representation of London that stands out in busy public spaces. Its subtle motion, photorealistic rendering, and panoramic composition create a premium visual moment that captures attention without distraction. This project demonstrates strong capabilities in large‑format DOOH design, environmental motion graphics, and ultra‑wide cinematic composition.
