Uni of Leeds – Two factor authentication
As the corporate world moves slowly towards offering more online security, the University of Leeds has introduced a new two factor authentication system to be rolled out across all staff and student user accounts across the entire university. Adapting to new technology isn’t always easy for everyone and so the University asked us to create an eye catching animation that explained the process in simple detail. Inspired by the work of famous animator Noma Bar. Bar’s illustration & Animation style is built around the use of layers and shapes to obscure the image until you are supposed to see it. The idea of the real image (or in this case, threat) hiding behind layers of obscurity was fascinating to us, and we were thrilled when the University of Leeds team selected our approach to deliver this important message.
We are around that the entire project was delivered by our in-house team. A delicate use of sound design combined with a friendly, youthful VO helped ensure this very serious message still felt approachable and friendly to new students starting with the university.
