VEGA Digital Awards 2022 - Canopus Award

Heerema Marine Contractors - Engines Off, Shore Power On


Protecting our planet has never been more important. As filmmakers, we can inspire positive change by telling the stories of those who are leading the way with innovative, transformative practices. Our film ‘Engines Off, Shore Power On’ takes us to Rotterdam where Heerema Marine Contractors have built the world’s largest shore power connection.
This project was both trailblazing and complex, but the results speak for themselves: a reduction of 15,000 tons in CO2 emissions, less noise pollution and an exemplary environmental case study for the global marine industry to follow.

Jaggaer - Autonomous Commerce


We're thrilled to announce our recent win at the MUSE Creative Awards celebrating our project with Jaggaer. We used 3D rendering to craft a world from scratch – one which creatively describes how Jaggaer’s cloud-based platform can help ease the process of buying, supplying and selling for their network of manufacturers, partners and customers.

Understanding Anxiety


Using digital cel animation we aimed to provide a new outlook on the causes of anxiety and its origins in our early lives. Whilst not claiming to be a treatment for anxiety, this film aims to help those affected and use the knowledge gained as a useful foundation for change.
We're so proud to have won this award and we hope this animation continues to act as a helpful resource for those struggling with the pernicious effects of anxiety.

Blank Shores, a short film Written and Directed by Alex Kyrou, won the B'Oscar for Best Science Fiction at the Beeston Film Festival! Having Co-produced the film, it was an honour to see Alex's vision come to life and we couldn't be prouder of this recent accolade.

VEGA Digital Awards 2021

Understand Your Anger


‘Anger' was produced as part of a child mental health initiative. The animation provides a way for healthcare professionals to introduce the idea of some underlying roots of anger, rather than simply acting them out. And then to explore those in a safe setting.

FDI


The FDI approached us to create this fun and vibrant stop motion animation to promote World Oral Health Day. They were looking for creative and dynamic approach to promote the multiple messages that were key to the campaign.

Animation was ultimately selected as the right medium, as it allowed us to bring together a disparate group of concepts and showcase them in a consistent way. It also allows for ease of translation so the end result could be shared internationally.

MUSE Creative Awards 2020 – Gold

European Commission – CoVE Animation


Produced on behalf of the European Commission, this challenging animation was tasked to provide an overview of the Centres of Vocational Excellence (CoVE) philosophy and demonstrate how it works. We selected an isometric style to allow the buildings to rise vertically and create space for the onscreen text. The video was used to promote an online event and has already clocked up thousands of views.

Honeywell VR500


This video won twice at the VEGA Digital Awards 2020, achieving recognition in both the Information and Technology categories.

Produced for the launch of Honeywell's new product, the VR500, it was a cinematic production which saw the assembly process captured in slow motion, allowing for close ups of some of its more intricate details.

NYX Video Awards 2020

European Commission Undeclared Work Animation


Created for the European Commission, this animation won silver at the NYX awards - for both it's beautiful design and it's clever concept. We decided upon a concept that linked the two audiences (employers and workers) – ‘a lack of sleep’. And through this restlessness tackled the various challenges of undeclared work to subtly encourage both audiences to change their behaviours.

MUSE Creative Awards 2020 - Platinum & Gold

HPE Ransomware


A double win for this explosive film for HPE (Hewlett Packard Enterprise)! We came up with a dramatic visual metaphor to highlight the devastating effects of ransomware: filming ink permeating a tank of water, culminating in a massive explosion. One of our favourite shoot days in the studio, complete with an explosives expert and a Phantom Flex, shooting 1000 fps.

MUSE Creative Gold Award 2020

Willis Towers Watson


Using the analogy of a healthy meal, we created an understandable explanation of how Willis Towers form rewarding investment portfolios for their clients. We used a mixture of 2D and 3D animation to bring the story to life with a clear and approachable voice over and music track. The client was thrilled and looks like the judges liked it too.

Honeywell - Connected logistics journey


2019 was a year of many successful Honeywell animation and film projects, so it was great news when this project won an award in early 2020. In order to bring to life Honeywell's end-to-end supply chain capability, we integrated animation with filmed footage, shot in range of international locations. Combining these two mediums allowed us to show off the real-world scale of Honeywell’s operations as well as explaining in detail the journey from A to Z and all points inbetween.

AVA Film Awards 2020 - Platinum

HPE animation - 100 million


Celebrations all round! First HPE gave us an award for helping them in marketing as they hit 100 million LTO data cartridges sold worldwide. Then we were asked to create an animation to promote this milestone and in the process picked up this AVA Films Platinum award. The company’s 20-year journey is represented by two young boys, as they venture through different landscapes, making discoveries and overcoming obstacles along the way. As the stars light up in the sky, their quest for greatness becomes closer, until they witness the aurora borealis, the ultimate dream. It was a joy to create and we were thrilled to win this AVA award.
