6G — video production of the future
Rarely does a Keksi project last a full year. This one did. From day one, we knew the University of Oulu's 6G video series would be challenging and compelling — requiring a multidisciplinary team and serious commitment.
Goals and concept
The video series aims to illustrate the possibilities of 6G technology and its impact across different areas of life. The videos were set in a time when these solutions are everyday reality — from 2030 onwards. The client wanted an innovative, forward-looking audiovisual package where the movement and utilization of 6G data is made concrete for viewers through practical examples. The purpose of the videos is to give viewers a clear picture of Finnish 6G research and expertise as a global leader.
Production
The project's scale and visual requirements demanded extensive planning and precise execution. We delivered the project as a turnkey solution, which included the following phases:
- Concept development and scriptwriting (based on multiple facilitated workshops with 6G experts)
- Production planning
- Production arrangements: location scouting, talent casting, styling, makeup, lighting and props
- Two-day shoot (photography and drone filming)
- Animation, VFX and CGI effects
- Music composition, sound design and audio production
The Keksi team worked — naturally — in close collaboration with the University of Oulu from start to finish. This ensured that messages and visual elements supported the whole and aligned with the client's strategic objectives.
Results
The project's outcome exceeded expectations both visually and in terms of content. The University of Oulu received a high-quality, credible and timeless brand video series that strengthens their position as a 6G research pioneer. Through the videos, the university can communicate the technology's possibilities and attract international partners, researchers and funders. The visual and narrative solutions make future technologies easily understandable and inspiring for a broad, international audience.
