With the opening ceremony just days away, we’re thrilled to share the trailer for BBC’s coverage of the 2024 Summer Olympic Games, directed by Fx Goby and brought to life by the Nexus Studios dream team. A massive thank you to BBC Creative and BBC Sport! Embracing Paris' reputation as the City of Love, Fx artfully explores the romance between athletes and their sports. The exquisite 2D animation foregoes traditional outlines, instead using light and shadow to suggest volume, effectively recreating each illustration 25 frames per second.

Paris has never seen a love like this. Nexus Studios’ Director Fx Goby kicks off the BBC’s Paris 2024 Olympic Games coverage with a timeless 2D animated film, transporting the audience to the City of Love. Fx created a warm, illustrative feel drawing a close parallel between romantic love and the passion athletes feel for their sports. With 58 shots and 36 athletes packed into 60 seconds, the expertly crafted film is as dynamic as it is moving. Using expert transitions and tight pacing, the film ramps up to its climactic finale - a kiss - because no love story is complete without one. Thank you to the BBC and BBC Creative for inviting us onto the team.
