The Great Good

We recently finished work on a promotional film for 23red. They needed a short film to communicate their beliefs ‘that businesses need to be 'Good' to have a competitive advantage in today's competitive landscape'.

The creatives at 23red had a focused idea, a strong script and rough storyboards which we quickly fleshed out into an animatic, working out the timing and rhythm of the story. Directors garth+ginny designed the characters and the railroad driven landscapes taking the the story from storyboards to final film.

We hope you like it.

Pictoplasma Yeti

The (very) good folks from Pictoplasma recently asked people for contributions to their missing link research project.

More than 5000 entries were submitted, with sightings occurring in South Africa, Iran, Bogota, Korea, Russia, North Carolina, New Zealand, and everywhere in between!

After an initial installation at the Volksbuhne in Berlin, we were lucky enough to have our entry exhibited in the Pictoplasma Paris conference at La Gaîté Lyrique in December 2011.

A massive wall in the central exhibition hall presented 500 of the very best entries as unique digital prints, we were delighted to find ‘Yeti’ in and amongst them.
