Partnering with Two Eighteen, we spent a week in San Jose capturing every angle of Coreweave’s GTC 2026 activation — from the first install panel to the wave structure that crowned it.
Two Eighteen partnered with us to document a Coreweave activation that pushed the limits of what an exhibit can be. The build was scaled and engineered to be one of the most complex structures at GTC 2026 — a multi-story footprint topped with an enormous wave sculpture that bent the eye every time you looked up.
Coreweave is a multi-billion-dollar company, and the activation needed to read that way: ambitious, technical, intentional. The brief covered hero stills, brand moments, and a full timelapse of the install — every deliverable shaped to give equal weight to Coreweave’s presence and Two Eighteen’s craft.
Pre-production with Two Eighteen and the Coreweave team: shot list, install timeline, timelapse rigging plan, and the camera positions that would actually capture the wave at scale.
A full week on-site in San Jose. Two-person crew shooting install through reveal, plus a fixed timelapse rig running the entire build.
Hero stills graded for both brands. Timelapse cut and color-matched to the show’s lighting. Video shaped to land Coreweave’s scale and Two Eighteen’s craft in the same frame.
Full library staged for Coreweave’s launch push and Two Eighteen’s portfolio. Organized for both partners to ship without a follow-up.
