The name "smlXL" sparked exciting visual concepts, allowing DIA to depict scale, exponential growth, and momentum playfully, using only the five characters – smlXL. Starting with a motion behaviour, the studio crafted a custom tool to ensure efficiency, consistency, and control. The tool empowers capabilities such as importing images, video, and live cameras, providing flexibility in exporting a variety of formats suitable for both digital and print applications.
