2D Animated Commercials

In collaboration with Deep Sky and the Oregon Department of Transportation, we brought safety and well-being to life through a series of 2D animated Public Service Announcement (PSA) videos designed to resonate with all Oregonians.

Zipper Merge

In partnership with Deep Sky and ODOT, we created a 2D animation to highlight the benefits of the zipper merge, a smarter and safer way to navigate lane closures. Featuring key messages like "Tips for Safer Trips," "Wait Until the Merging Point," and "There Is a Better Way," the animation educates viewers on how this technique reduces traffic by up to 40% and improves road safety for everyone.

With clear visuals, concise tips, and an engaging design, the 30-second spot encourages drivers to "Merge Late and Take Turns," making every trip smoother and more efficient.

Bike Box

To make intersections safer for everyone, we teamed up with ODOT and Deep Sky to create a 2D animation about bike boxes. This short video highlights tips like "Stop Behind the Box" and "Share the Road," showing how bike boxes give cyclists visibility and reduce conflicts with drivers.

With clear visuals and an approachable style, the 30-second animation promotes safer, more respectful road use.

PSA Commercials - 3D Character Animation

We've been teaming with Gard Communications and the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) for years to create impactful and informative public service announcements. All spots focus on the importance of keeping Oregonians safe, ranging from topics like drunk driving prevention, wearing seatbelts, and focusing on the road. In these live action spots, we work closely with our clients to provide an end-to-end production solution, including scriptwriting, location scouting, casting, filming, audio, editing, and color correction.

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
