Represented by Tonic DNA in the US, Airplan Studios title sequence for Playing to Survive: von Cramm vs Hitler, a feature documentary streaming on PBS, tells the story of legendary German tennis player Gottfried von Cramm, whose athletic grace and defiance stood in contrast to the Nazi regime’s power in the 1930s. Airplan Studio brought this project to life, blending historical narrative with a personal story of resilience. The brief was to create a sequence that captured von Cramm’s on-court brilliance and the oppression he faced off it — particularly his quiet defiance of Hitler. Balancing historical accuracy with emotion, they used archival footage, tennis choreography, and abstract visuals to evoke the duality of von Cramm’s public heroism and private turmoil. With period-specific imagery and hand-crafted transitions, they mirrored the rising stakes of his personal and professional struggles, creating a dynamic yet restrained visual experience.

We are excited to welcome FERN to the LLR family.  Fern an Atlanta-based animation and motion design studio that is equal parts craft and collaboration.
