Chantal Caduff - Fashion Collage Animation & GIF-Artist

120 guests, 3 Nights, 3 Gifs &
One group portrait

Together with Haus of Birkhof, I created these elaborate pieces of art for the guests of the Engage23! Summit in Siciliy.

Engage! Is the ultimate networking and creative event for the global wedding and event industry. Over the course of three days, its guests came together to connect, learn and grow. The task of Haus of Birkhof, a creative agency that is all about blurring the lines between art and photography, was to create unique mementos of this unforgettable experience.

The summit had three evening events, each with a very specific theme and dress code. I created a gif for each theme/evening. Every night, the on-location-team of Haus of Birkhof photographed the guests and I incorporated them into the gifs
within 24 hours. This way, the guests had their own custom gif of the night to share on social media.

Simultaneously to the gifs, every night the Haus of Birkhof team also photographed the guests for the group portrait.
Since the dress code and location was different each night, the lighting and positioning of each guest was carefully planned and curated. The result is a beautiful piece of art and group image that will be remembered forever.
