OOO

Out of Office (OOO) was born as an idea by a couple of creatives at uppercase, in partnership with JCDecaux. We have a deep appreciation for the incredible power of motion graphics and visuals to tell stories, evoke emotions, and transport audiences to new realms of possibility.

The enchantment of motion in design has always captivated us and brightened our lives. With the approach of the darker times of the year, we had a vision of collecting a diverse range of motion and animation from creatives worldwide to showcase for everyone's enjoyment. We wanted to share the inspiration and light we find with others. In 2023, this vision became reality with the first-ever OOO exhibition - a 24-hour display across multiple JCDecaux screens.

This year, we’re bringing it back.

But OOO is not solely about admiring the work of others; it is about empowering the creative community to contribute their own unique voice to this extraordinary tapestry. We strongly believe that art thrives when it becomes a collective endeavor, and we warmly invite you to join us in shaping the narrative of this exhibition. Whether you're an established professional or an emerging talent, your ideas and creativity hold immeasurable value to us.

We invite you to embark on a journey that will spark your imagination, fuel your creativity, and inspire you to contribute to our remarkable exhibition.
