About a year ago, we wrote and produced the spot below with our guy Trevor for our guys Coastal Contacts.

Curiously, Mister Spex, a German online glasses retailer just launched this ad:

We were pleasantly surprised, and thoroughly tickled, by a recent telephone interview with Marketing Magazine.

The issue landed at HQ this morning, where we’re featured in two articles: Rising In The West, a profile of 10 agencies in Western Canada, and The 2011 Agency Tree.

Thanks to Eve at Marketing Mag, and Laura at Rethink for the nice words!

Posters and Billboards and Buses, Oh My!

November 16th, 2011

Vancouver Opera approached us to produce a series of spots to promote 3 of their new productions this season, the first being West Side Story.

We wanted to make the spot unique to VOP, so we set it in Vancouver. At first we had trouble narrowing down our favorite scenes, but we solved that by retro-fitting the whole story into 15 seconds! We used a Saul Bass inspired style to pay homage to the original time period, and finished the spot using Vancouver’s iconic Woodward’s ‘W’ as the first letter in the title.

VOP liked the concept so much, they had us re-design their print campaign on bus wraps, posters, billboards, newspaper ads, flyers, programs, and more.

We couldn’t feel more pretty. [ahem, WSS reference]
