Here’s “somethin’ funnn” we loved: the animatic-to-final comparison on this holiday spot for Nebraska Lottery! It's amazing to see how our 2D team creates a clear vision to hand off to the 3D team who magically bring it all to life. #Animation #Animatic #2Dto3D #CreativeProcess #Holidayspot

Saw our fun promo work for Scholastic's Book Fair out in the wild the other day—spotted a truck with our poster! Thought we'd share the action and a bit of the making. 🤓 It's awesome work like this that makes us feel lucky to do what we do. One moment, we're working on an animated series; the next, we're creating for a huge publishing house. Gotta love it. #CharacterDesign #Publishing #PrintAdvertising #CreationStudio

BIG round of applause for our MAKE Thesis Grant Winners AND Honorable Mentions!!! 👏👏👏 🌟 1st Place: Alienated! by Andrew Erbskorn - Savannah College of Art and Design 🌟 2nd Place: Ümit by Amina Umirzhanova - Savannah College of Art and Design 🌟 3rd Place: Praying For Love by Sofia Tonin - Ringling College of Art and Design Honorable Mentions: Floraspira: The Last Fox by Zeming Sun - University of Southern California, The Town Without Laws: Errand Run by Kiarra Moore - Minneapolis College of Art and Design, and Second Spring by Jennifer Sun & Ailla Crossman - School of Visual Arts. To ALL the artists who submitted—thank you x3!! This grant was a fun experimental way for us to directly give back to the young artistic community and support the amazing stories coming to life through senior thesis projects. We’re SO happy to say it was a massive success!! The talent was unreal, making it super tough to choose winners (hence the additional honorable mentions). Each of them got a donation toward their amazing projects. Knowing we helped bring these incredible pieces to life makes it all so worth it. So, on that note, if you want to keep following along on these artists' journeys... We got you! We’ll be sharing more as their projects develop! #MAKEThesisGrant #AnimationFunding #AnimationStudents #Animation #ArtCommunity #AnimationCommunity

Hess Toy Truck season is back and better than ever; here to lengthen your kiddo’s wish list. 🎁 A lil' history for you—our creative partnership with Hess Corporation dates back to 2017 and is truly something we look forward to making every year. Time's flown by... and with that, a lot of amazing work has been created (and continues to be made!!), so it’s about time we shared the fun in one holiday-esque post. #Creative #Holiday #Advertising #ProductMarketing #DesignStudio

Last night we celebrated our 20th bday, Worksgiving, and having a group event actually #MAKE it out of the studio chat. ✨ #20years #Team #Thankful
