With the charity: water team, we created 3 ways in - combating trolling comments with truth, a playful approach that leverages fun experiments, and a humorous approach listing all the items you do not pay for - and we had 1-day to get it all.

We partnered with our friends at charity: water on a campaign focused on their 100% donation model. It was eye opening! Did you know that with many charities, a portion of your donation goes to overhead?

With the charity: water team, we created 3 ways in - combatting trolling comments with truth, a playful approach that leverages fun experiments, and a humorous approach listing all the items you do not pay for - and we had 1-day to get it all.

Our approach kept the creative simple - using a white sound stage with minimal props. This approach allowed us o move quickly between video concepts. Thankfully, our talent nailed their lines which made all our jobs a little easier.

Stay in the loop.
