Hypersonix is a green aerospace engineering, design and build company.

When the Hypersonix Launch Systems technology reached technology readiness level 5 (TRL-5), the company entered a crucial phase for securing investment. To communicate the immense potential of this system to investors, we collaborated to develop an engaging educational video.

Our priorities were sustainability, reusability and feasibility.

After outlining key points of difference during a collaborative meeting with Hypersonix team members, we identified core themes to detail in the script, including the possibilities for new space, global demand for environmentally friendly technologies, the ability to fly to space, and demonstrated experience with scramjets.

As the video required inclusion of 2D and 3D animation to illustrate the operation of the launch system, we delivered the script alongside an accompanying storyboard — enabling Hypersonix to visualise and comment on the video’s overall look and feel, ahead of extensive production and editing.

While animation and display statistics are sleek and understated, they are also striking and impactful in execution. The refined visual style elevates the Hypersonix brand colours, bringing a sophisticated, futuristic element to content.

Combining archival launch footage, 3D rocket animation and 2D flight path animation, editing incorporates a subtle glitch treatment to symbolise the intersection of old and new space.
