The brief

Not a client job, and nobody asked for it. OpenAI ran their GPT-4o launch event, I watched the intro animation go past on the livestream and set myself a challenge: rebuild the whole thing from nothing but the recording. Two days, start to finish.

The outcome

A two day rebuild of an event intro nobody hired me to make. It is on the site because copying something you admire, properly, is the fastest way to find out what you cannot do yet.

The long version

The reference.

OpenAI's own Spring Update stream, which is all I had to work from. Their footage, not mine, and the only reason it is here is so you can judge the rebuild against it. It runs silent.

The collection

The part nobody posts.

Everyone shows the finished video. Each one is here twice: once while it was being built, and once finished.
