For the third season in a row, the Northern Lights Family has partnered with Paramount+ to launch the most prestigious soccer tournament in the world: The UEFA Champions League. Combining attitude-driven, rapid-fire voice over with a multi-panel split screen editorial approach and kinetic type accents, we crafted a campaign that spoke to both the casual sports fan as well as the die-hard football fanatic. Our visuals scream exhilaration and excitement to draw in new viewers, while our copy was visceral and just “inside the sport” enough to pique the interest of longtime fans. Our campaign included launch spots, matchup topicals, a World Cup media buy, and player-specific vignettes. After launching, during the tournament’s group stage, Paramount+ reported double-digit year-over-year growth in average audience, streaming minutes, and total households, including two of the most streamed Champions League group stage match days in the service’s history.

Our creative partners at Discovery came to us for the key art for their final season of their legacy reality show- Diesel Brothers- because they new we loved a good illustration project. They really wanted some thing that portrayed the season’s “rallying cry for diesel”. They wanted something BIG! IN YOUR FACE! LARGER THAN LIFE! that would help solidify the cast as the “top dogs” in the competitive diesel world.

We have successfully created the key art for each season of Name That Tune since it the show was rebooted in 2020 as well as several of their other music gameshows.

With the direction that “Murphy (main character) is her own worst enemy” we set off on creative exploration for In The Dark’s Final Season Key Art for our client CW. We wanted it to be focused on Murphy, a little dark and simple. For the comp that went to finish- we focused directly on Murphy; directly getting into her head; her thoughts; what would this season focus on? SAVE ME. Murphy is blind and that plays a major part in the series narrative. Setting the type in braille was a creative choice that fit.

Criminally ruthless meets mindfully tricky on a new brand spot for ID. With hours of original network footage to play with we found all the moments that make crime uncomfortable to watch. But can you get people to admit they like watching murder? Not because it's salacious, but because knowing how it went down before, helps you avoid it yourself. So thank you to murder, for making us crave justice, action, and truth. Where do you get that fix? Witness it on ID.
