Meet The Award Winning Videos

Das Boot

[hdplay id=3]

This commercial was produced for Work Out World in February 2010. With an aggressive broadcast media buy and a fun animated creative execution, the spot aimed to take a bite out of WOW’s competitor, Planet Fitness. And, in having fun with the script, it was Creative Director Charlie Rasak who came up with the idea to say “das boot!” instead of “the boot.” (“Das boot” actually means “the boat” in German, but in this case, it was more of an attention grabber then a German shout-out.) Editor Jessica Banis punctuated the ad with plenty of 2D animation and sound effects. “Just listen to the spot,” she says. “The spaceship flies in – Jetson’s Car sound effect, slurps up the text, swishes at camera… The Boot falls out of the sky with a cartoon falling sound, lands with a splat, the gear makes a squish sound, the boot thud-kicks the gear, and it goes flying with another swish off screen…. And all within about four seconds!” The offer, $10 down and $10 per month with no commitment for 10 days only, was highly successful for Work Out World. They continued in this style throughout winter and spring of 2010.

 

CRG Montage 2010

Ironically, this video was also created in February 2010 for Creative Resources Group’s own website redesign. CRG wanted a video for their www.meetcrg.com homepage to showcase core services and video production capabilities, in house resources, staff, clients, and of course, videos of all types. Commercials, corporate videos, live events, webcasts, web videos, promotional videos, documentary and educational videos, and more. Based on one very hip piece of music and no voice over, the CRG Montage strung together all of these things, using new and old footage, photos, and a just little text here and there to accent. Since being implemented on the all-new meetcrg.com, Creative Resources Group has received numerous compliments on the Montage. It’s fun, it’s hip, it moves quickly, and it showcases much of what CRG has to offer. The video is a great introduction… And now it’s an Award-Winning introduction.
