With the Qt Design Studio video series, we established a clear hierarchy, with four types of design elements to keep the visual language sharp. The Design Studio windows, simple shapes with bright circles that represent designs, magenta outlines to highlight current tasks and icons from the Design Studio app to indicate key functionalities. The colors also have clearly defined purpose: blue for design, yellow for code, and grey for inactivity. We used dark windows and light designs to create contrast, living bold gradients represent dynamism and active elements emit light in the dark.

Creating the videos for Qt Design Studio with their bold design, separate from the traditional Qt-brand look & feel was a very cool challenge. We feel result is awesome, and most importantly: so does our client.

The look of the Qt Design Studio videos had to be striking and distinctive, while still reflecting the user experience. Through experimentation, we found ways to stylize and simplify the visuals while still maintaining the unique feel of the software. We wanted to make viewers feel as though they were stepping into the app, experiencing the space between design and code. To achieve this, we designed windows and elements that float freely in a three dimensional space.

The videos were originally created for website use, to introduce key features of the app, but led us onwards to produce a key visual and many advertising assets.

Qt Group is a globally recognized software company known for its innovative solutions. With over 1.5 million developers worldwide trusting the company, they help increase productivity in all stages of the software development lifecycle, from UI design and software development to quality management and deployment.

Qt Group presented MacWell with a wonderful challenge – to create a series of videos with a distinct visual identity that reflected the unique features of their Qt Design Studio software. First, we learned everything about Qt Design Studio, which helps turn your designs into functional code that works on any platform or device. It bridges the gap between designers and coders. Together with the client we defined six key functionalities to showcase as six different videos.

To complement the product videos, we created three technical videos. Here the floor is given to Wirepas employees, who expand on Mom’s radical simplifications in technical detail. No matter how skilled the narrator is, IoT remains a complex topic. To make the technical videos more understandable we created beautiful infographic animations and sound design that illustrate the technological concepts.

“Straight outta summer cottage” continued the story of Wirepas and Mom. The challenge was explaining IoT to ordinary people, without losing the humor and style established in previous videos. The challenge was accepted, and successfully met. We’re super proud of what we’ve created, and can’t wait to see more of Mom!

IoT products can be complex, and explanations are often drowned in jargon and abstraction. That’s why crystallising and defining the actual benefits was our first task. The mission was to create videos where the benefits of the technology is also clear to regular people.

In true MacWell style, we dove deep into fully understanding the product. The story is told through the point of view of a visitor, whom Mom welcomes by explaining the “world’s best IoT”. Using metaphors like blueberries and fishing nets she explains the functionality of Wirepas 5G Mesh in a very, very down to earth way.

Wirepas approached MacWell to help launch their new product, Wirepas 5G Mesh. Our brief was to explain the product and its benefits through their iconic character, “Mom”.

Mom has previously spent her harsh winters in Tampere Finland with her boys. But come summer, Mom heads out to her traditional “Mökki”, or Summer cabin to relish in the simplicity of Finnish Nature. We created a series of 6 videos, all Straight Outta Summer Cabin.

True to our process, we dove deep into the technology and workflow of the SureTect™ system. This learning helped us develop and fine-tune every deliverable perfectly.

The product video was at the heart of our deliverables for the project. Conceptualizing and scripting it with the client was a journey of discovery, and the final product is a testament to that.

Shot in a gorgeous location and expertly crafted together with our friends at Cocoa and Boutique Animation, it showcases and celebrates Thermo Scientific’s passion for their product.

We also documented the updated workflow of the SureTect™ system through photography. The images showcase the new tools and processes in action, highlighting that the improvements made were focus on the everyday experience of the person working in the lab.

Nordeep is the Nordic Deeptech Business Summit by Arctic Startup, a first-of-a-kind event that brings together Nordic science and business. MacWell had the honour and pleasure to play an integral part in bringing the event to life; from a brand refresh to digital and physical assets as well as a keynote speech, a facilitated panel discussion and a workshop.

Nordeep needed a strong but minimal visuality to match its nordic philosophy. MacWell created the event logo, typography and visual themes that aligned with the client’s vision. We produced an array of different physical assets for the event spatial branding and after the event we combined our work into a visual guide.

Modern features on a classic flip phone.

For this device, the fun and light tone of the creative makes the Nokia 2760 Flip phone the star. The product is elevated by simple visual images that fit with the feeling of the music. For this ex*****on, there was no need to utilize lifestyle imagery. MacWell was able to tell the story with a ‘less is more’ approach that mirrors the phone’s design philosophy.
