Turning 50 years into a moment.
A milestone hero film, built on precision, reflection, and growth.
OCC is the biggest name in its category that almost nobody outside it knows. For their 50th, they didn't need a recap. They needed a room full of people to feel the weight of the achievement. The legacy got a look, a movement, and a mood you could feel.
Fifty years, made to shimmer.
The client
OCC is the world's largest equity derivatives clearing organization. Quiet, essential, and turning 50, a milestone worth marking in style.
the ask
Another collaboration with 50,000feet. Craft a mesmerizing hero video that celebrates OCC's achievements and points at its future, through motion design, narration, music, and sound.
The answer
The film was built around a kaleidoscope, a fitting metaphor for a company defined by precision, reflection, and growth. Drawing from 50,000feet's intricate illustrations and OCC's own archive, a mosaic of shifting visual prisms lifted the script off the screen. The past and the future, held in the same frame.
Behind the build
A kaleidoscope as metaphor
Precision, reflection, growth. The kaleidoscope wasn't just a visual, it was the idea, a way to hold 50 years of history and turn it toward what's next.
Archive, reimagined
We pulled from OCC's own photo archive and wove it into the prisms, so the celebration felt personal and earned, not generic.
Small videos, big impact
Three cut-downs for social teased the 50th ahead of the moment. Short, striking, and built to build anticipation.
Here's to 50.
