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.

Inspiring Action with Whiteboard: The AECOM Story

Image
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
