@ PPL Sea, partnering with Slanted Studios
For Google Android
S CD, concept development, design, animation, compositing.
50+ multidisciplinary pieces for an interactive platform that helps personalize your Android.
PPL Sea partnered with Slanted Studios to direct and help produce this irreverent, sprawling, multi disciplinary series of 50 videos for Google's #myAndroid campaign with Droga 5.
Our videos editorialized and compared options for the ultimate taste test quiz on steroids. Based on the user’s choices, the platform generates a list of Andoid widgets, launchers, wallpapers, icons, and keyboards to suit their tastes.
Always fun, a little witty and sometimes silly, the visuals were designed to keep the users engaged and surprised. Users are urged to “Tap first, think later.”
Fast Company called it the “quiz to make your Android phone more palatable“ which we think sums it up nicely.

A fun production, great team, a very happy Google, and an amazing splash launch at SxSW to round it out! g
