BET was looking for a new, hip approach to award shows. They wanted a more urban, street culture style. We went with 3d environments for the whole show.


Nominee packages were placed inside the 3d subway world on those mosaic tile walls. Each award was a different color scheme.


The subway map has every award in the show. The B, E, and T train lines. Train transitions were used to make the audience feel like the stage itself was at a subway station.

The Star Billboard section had animation which was strategically designed to stop at urban signage which would transition to live video. Exterior city animation by Colin Cheer.
For Cossette Productions. Video clips from this show can be viewed in the show reel archive. Work was performed at Kober Post Production.
