UNITED THERAPEUTICS – Game On Opener

United Therapeutics enlisted Kindle Communications to create an electrifying opening video for their annual sales summit. However, there was a catch – only stock footage and music could be used. That's where Electric Gum came in, contracting us to art direct a graphic treatment that would complement the sports imagery and amplify the inspirational "Game On" messaging. Our approach? Integrating titles and graphics over the stock footage, giving it a gritty sports film treatment. Meticulous rotoscoping allowed figures to break through the titles for added interest. Embracing the varied quality of the source footage, we strategically degraded certain shots and added a touch of grunge. With each edit, the energy soared, resulting in an exhilarating hype video that left a lasting impact. The client was thrilled, leading to an immediate follow-up project. Game on!
