Working thru California agency Butler Shine Stern & Partners, director Diego Berakha and the crew at 1stAveMachine in Buenos Aires mash together live-action and a slew of animation and design styles for this phase two promo of the ESPN app.
Diego Berakha at 1stAveMachine Buenos Aires: “Something I did with this and the previous campaign, was think about the project more as a music video rather than a commercial spot, and to create something that was vibrant and fun to watch – almost like a sports music video.
“In this new edition, we tried to push the graphics and fun even further, focusing less on the app interface and more on the sports.”
