Ori specializes in looping images – more specifically he changes the images, takes them apart, and puts them back together again, or as he calls it: “playing with moving Lego blocks that I make.” His signature, captivating style is versatile for music videos and commercials alike.

Ori comes to Brink after working as an animator and illustrator for an isometric Facebook social app. He also has experience working freelance for music videos and odd bits for commercials. Ori also continues to explore other avenues of art, including illustration and graphic design.  He has a more unconventional approach to his art and animation, using tools like broken lava lamps in his drawings.

While he’s mainly made a name in music videos, George has also worked in advertising, documentary filmmaking, and concert visuals. He was also commissioned to develop and produce visuals for the recent The Rolling Stones tours. His work in music documentary has also landed him two Gemini Award nominations.

His commercial work includes campaigns for clients like iSkin, Toronto Life, Chelsea Hotel, and The Colorado Department of Health. Recently he directed the show opener for CBC’s “Cracked.”

Although the camera is mostly static, the change in scale in the animated elements give the viewer the sensation that we are constantly distancing ourselves from the small planet. A subtle nod to Charles and Ray Eames’ film “Powers of Ten” from 1977.
