Armis × OTORIO

M&A Announcement – NASDAQ Tower

I created the motion design for Armis’ acquisition announcement of OTORIO, displayed on the NASDAQ Tower in Times Square, one of the world’s most iconic and high – visibility digital media locations. The project communicated a major M&A milestone, announcing the unification of two cybersecurity leaders under a single platform and vision, in an environment with constant movement and hundreds of thousands of daily viewers.

The Challenge

-Communicate a high-stakes acquisition to a global audience and ensure maximum legibility at large scale and long viewing distances
-Design for a vertical, ultra-wide LED format in a visually saturated environment
-Maintain a premium, enterprise-grade tone aligned with strict brand guidelines

The Solution

I designed a clean, typography driven motion system focused on strong visual hierarchy and contrast, controlled pacing for instant comprehension and
smooth transitions that visually express integration and continuity.

Impact

Public announcement of a strategic acquisition in one of the most recognizable advertising locations in the world and reinforced Armis’ positioning as a global leader in cyber exposure management.

This live recording captures the Armis × OTORIO acquisition animation displayed on the NASDAQ Tower in Times Square, showcasing the final motion design in its real-world, large-scale context. The video demonstrates how the animation performs in a high traffic, visually saturated environment where clarity, contrast, and pacing are critical for instant comprehension at a distance.

Animation Approach

-The globe and connection nodes are revealed through synchronized line-draw animation
-Animated glow travels along the same strokes that form the globe and nodes, suggesting active visibility and data flow

Conceptual Purpose

-Communicate a single, unified platform activating across all environments simultaneously
-Use shared stroke and glow behavior to reinforce integration rather than layered effects
-Resolve motion into a calm, stable state, signaling system completeness and control

Design System Considerations

-Built entirely within Armis’ enterprise brand system
-Typography-led messaging with high contrast for long-distance legibility
