Mode Project is a finalist in the 2012 PromaxBDA North America Design Competition for “CASA: One Boy’s Story,” in the Art Direction & Design, PSA category. The spot combines live-action production with CG animation to create an imaginary world of paper cutouts that show a CASA volunteer helping a boy navigate the court system, foster homes, and his eventual adoption.nn”The challenge of this PSA was to tell the story from the child’s perspective in an unexpected way,” says Colin Carter, Mode’s executive creative director. Mode Project‘s CG director Stefan Draht envisioned creating animated visuals that took cues from materials easily accessible in a child’s environment. “The use of 3D allowed us to visually and conceptually bridge the gap between live action shots of the boy and the fantasy world of his imagination,” Draht said. The result is a playful look at an unpredictable world.nnnView work online here. nnMode Project received the assignment from Rick Valicenti, founder of design studio Thirst/Chicago, on behalf of EPIC (Engaging Philanthropy Inspiring Creatives), an organization which helps nonprofit clients work with top-tier creative talent. nnThe PromaxBDA Awards is the only competition dedicated to recognizing excellence in Marketing, Design and Creative content in the entertainment industry. Winners will be announced at the 57th Annual PromaxBDA Conference taking place June 12-14, at the Marriott LA live in Los Angeles.nnCreditsnAgency: EPICnAgency Liaison: Thirst/Chicago, Rick ValicentinWriter: Kelly ButlernnProduction Company: Mode ProjectnCG Modeling and Animation: Mode ProjectnnDirector of Photography: Derick SmithnStylist: Pamela DawnnnMusic: The Mayfair WorkshopnSound Design: Vagabond AudionnAbout Mode ProjectnMode Project is an award-winning production company that creates distinctive digital media content for the advertising, marketing and entertainment industries. www.modeproject.com
