Activision Blizzard

TRYING TO STUMP CHESS GRANDMASTER GARRY KASPAROV

We offered Chess Grandmaster and former World Champion Garry Kasparov a chance for redemption against the machine…only this time, he’d be playing strategy card game Hearthstone instead of chess. We taught Garry the game, got him hooked, and then put him against the ultimate challenge. Our mini-documentary, The Brain’s Last Stand, captures every step of Garry’s journey playing Hearthstone. With nearly 20 million views globally, this documentary has captured the imagination of viewers around the world.

COMBATING SYSTEMIC GENDER BIAS IN HEALTHCARE

One in two women’s health concerns go unheard. Pain ignored. Concerns disregarded.

Amazon Web Services – NFL Integration

USING MACHINE LEARNING TO STAT THAT

HOPE MOVES US FORWARD

As the COVID-19 virus spread across the world, Blue Shield of California used its platform to help flatten the curve. From encouraging residents to wear a mask to underlining why vaccine distribution is essential, we helped Californians create a healthier, safer society throughout the ups and downs. Our film, Together We Rise, uses dance as a visual metaphor to express the resilience, hope and positivity Californians held within them as they learned how to navigate uncertain times and chose to keep moving forward.

Mill Valley Film Festival

DRAMATIZING THE FEELINGS THAT FILM EVOKES

Our relationship with the Mill Valley Film Festival goes back as far as the mid-’90s. Recently we’ve been designing the festival identity, along with the One Sheet poster and templates for social, including motion graphics. 

Be it joy, sadness, surprise, fear, or anger, good film makes us feel something. It takes us on a journey, provoking empathy, laughter, and tears we never expected to shed. In a world constantly focusing on each other’s differences, emotions create similarities. Thankfully, we all have the capacity to feel and share unifying experiences through a screen. That’s what this design portrays.

Birch Benders

BENDING THE ORDINARY

Pancakes are fun. So are waffles and pretty much anything baked. But when it comes to healthy eating, those things aren’t usually part of the conversation. Well, what about those who don’t deny themselves certain indulgences, but do it in a healthy way? Birch Benders is speaking directly to these consumers in its first national and social advertising campaign spotlighting three of the brand’s flagship Just-Add-Water Pancake & Waffle Mix flavors.
