Vancouver’s master storytellers Giant Ant take on the challenge to “communicate an environmentalist message to a right-leaning audience” in this warm and welcoming clip for Costa Sunglasses and their #Kickplastic campaign.

“Costa makes the clearest sunglasses on the planet for the sport fishing industry. Because healthy fish rely on healthy oceans, Costa is working hard to raise awareness about our overuse, and poor disposal, of plastics. We landed on a treatment absent of any emotionally manipulative voice over, and used a series of facts on screen to communicate the story.”
