New Orbit
We partnered with Manual Creative to craft two films for New Orbit, a UK-based space tech company. New Orbit is developing satellite technology designed to operate in ultra-low Earth orbit, just 180 km above the planet, opening a new layer of space closer to Earth than ever before.
Manual defined the creative direction and brand positioning, framing New Orbit as a new kind of aerospace pioneer, focused on real-world impact rather than technical abstraction. Our role was to bring that vision to life through a cohesive visual language, spanning 3D, motion, and cinematic storytelling.

Introducing NEO-1
Shown above is a film highlighting the benefits of the NEO-1 satellite operating in ultra-low Earth orbit. Designed as a cinematic experience, the film uses scale, movement, and detail to express how a satellite flying closer to Earth enables greater precision — and a future where ultra-low orbit becomes the new normal.
In detail
Core film
The film begins in higher Earth orbit, where satellites traditionally operate, and gradually descends toward Earth — revealing ultra-low orbit as a new and closer layer around the planet. The journey reframes distance and scale, showing how proximity enables greater precision and brings space closer to life on Earth.
