Image campaign designed for one of the nation's most celebrated and popular film fesitivals. The campaign focused on how movies can take you out of your environment and give you a new perspective on the world. 

Winner of AIGA CLE Best of Show:

“This project leaped off the judging tables. I loved the playful and youthful approach w/ the floating heavyweight animals; it was like they were escaping from the zoo to go see a flick. I am sure this campaign made films fun for the entire family - not just the film critics at large. Well done and very magical.“
