ESPN's 2016 US Open coverage for international markets features a broadcast animation package developed by 9iFX Studios. The work leans into a cinematic aesthetic, centering on a stylized 3D rendered New York City skyline that rises from the water.
Throughout the sequence, the animation navigates architectural structures and iconic monuments, including the Statue of Liberty. These motion graphics elements integrate player portraits and tournament highlights, utilizing dramatic lighting effects to establish a sense of scale for the broadcast event.
