We Don’t Just Tell Stories.. We Make Them Move

From bringing HiFest: The Future of Digital Storytelling to life—featuring brilliant minds from across industries and powered by our amazing sponsor Vev, we also had the thrill of creating three bold, scroll-loving web experiences for none other than Red Bull, all built on (you guessed it) Vev.
Dive into the triple threat project lineup below. They’re part showpiece, part story, and part dance party for your screen—full of visual punch, smooth transitions, and interactive magic.
Breaking 101: A Crash Course in the Culture That Never Stopped Moving
Before TikTok trends, there was breaking—raw, rhythmic, and born in the Bronx. Breaking 101, breaks down the culture, creativity, and athleticism behind one of the world’s most iconic street dance styles.
We brought it to life with a dynamic, scroll-loving layout:
✅20 interactive videos across 4 clickable modules
✅A custom sticky bottom nav that plays nice with Red Bull’s global site
✅A slick horizontal timeline, interactive sections, and even 3D animated dancers sculpted by illustrator Alex Solis
The interactive layout of this piece lets the story move just like the dancers do with dynamic sections, smooth transitions, and energy you can feel through the screen.
The Crown: The Freestyle Legend Turning Pain into Power
David “The Crown” Stalter Jr. doesn’t just dance, he tells stories with every step. His breakout performance at Red Bull Dance Your Style’s National Final wasn’t just viral, it was visceral. Vulnerability turned into power, movement into message.
We brought that same energy to his custom Vev site—pixel-perfect, emotionally charged, and built to move. Using GIF-like animations, sticky scroll effects, and seamless video integration, the result is bold, dynamic, and true to his voice.
Marlee Hightower: From YouTube Prodigy to Movement Powerhouse
Freestyle phenom Marlee Hightower has been going viral since she was 10—and she’s still moving with purpose. From online dance battles to Red Bull Dance Your Style’s main stage, her style stays raw, emotional, and unapologetically her own.
In her own words: “Train as much as you can, but never forget to create from within.” We felt that—and designed a custom Vev site to match. With GIF-like flashes, sticky scrolls, and a seamless mix of video and illustration, every frame mirrors her expressive energy.
What’s a Rich Text element?
The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
Static and dynamic content editing
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
How to customize formatting for each rich text
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
