Elvis


Happy Friday!

Before “King James…” there was The King. Elvis Presley endured rapid fame in the mid-1950s—on the radio, TV and the silver screen (That’s the movies for all you young’uns). He’s known as the King for a reason, and his confidence and charisma led the way to a whole new era of rock and roll. We jumped at the opportunity to draw up Elvis in a whiteboard animation, and love the quote we drew him with.
When things go wrong… Don’t go with them!

Storytelling Throughout the Ages: Hieroglyphics to Emojis

-

Have you ever sat down to text your friend an emoji and thought about how one simple thing like the smiley face ever got started? When people think of storytelling, they seem to forget how far back it began to connect people across the globe. As early civilizations evolved, their visual languages expanded and became more communicable. And we thank the ancient Egyptians for creating a clear, efficient way of telling stories through their use of hieroglyphics. The term “hieroglyphic” originates from the Greek words hiero (‘holy’) and glypho (‘writing’). The Ancient Egyptians began using hieroglyphics (also referred to medu netjer, or ‘the gods’ words’) as a way to communicate. By using symbols strung together, the first visual stories were born. This culture believed stories were divine in nature and something that would be carried on far ahead into the future. Turns out they were right!

Inspiring Action with Whiteboard: The AECOM Story

AECOM had a dilemma. Their health insurance premiums were skyrocketing and employees, faced with exorbitant out-of-pocket costs, were skipping simple health maintenance checks that would ensure their good health. So, AECOM launched a comprehensive health maintenance program, "Wellness at AECOM," not only to promote good health, but to also save the company and its employees money. However, despite a massive print and email marketing campaign, only 24% of their nearly 100,000 employees signed up. That's it. Only 1 in 4 people were aware of this new corporate initiative.  So, AECOM challenged us to find a way to reach and engage ALL of their target audience. And we did!  We worked with AECOM to produce a short whiteboard explainer video that was produced in English, French and French Canadian so everyone in AECOM's target audience could easily understand. Within 48 hours of the release of the whiteboard video, employee sign-up was up to 78% . The $8,000 inve

Rich in Color: Animated Life Inside NBA's "Bubble" Basketball Camp

-
Sources are reporting an astounding $150 million dollar price tag to complete and operate a new facility in Orlando, FL to house NBA players during their preseason practices. It's called "The Bubble." Since there wasn't any footage of life inside "The Bubble" just yet - our crew was hired to produce a full color animation featuring the NBA players decked out in their uniforms and masks (no exceptions!) Narrated by Maria Taylor, this animated video depicts what the NBA's Bubble might look like in Orlando during the 2020 preseason, where 22 teams plus their staff will live and practice during quarantine. Watch the full clip here: After the creation of the English video, ESPN wanted to translate this piece into Spanish for ESPN Deportes . We provided our client with new on-screen translations to the artwork and the final product came out beautifully. The full Spanish version is embedded below.
