Claritin rolled out this animated music video for its The Outsideologist Project, an online program designed to get kids to spend one more hour per week outside. Produced by ATKPLN for Energy BBDO, the video sprung from an original composition, “Unboring Starts with U,” written and performed by Mophonics composer and creative director Casey Gibson. The tune teaches kids weird facts about neighborhood creatures, fun ideas for outdoor activities, and how “unboring” kids’ own backyards or local parks can be. The song was the result of a synergistic and natural collaboration between the Mophonics and Energy BBDO teams.
The music video takes the form of a 2-D animation/miniatures live-action mash-up created by ATKPLN. Daniel DelPurgatorio served as director/executive creative director for ATKPLN, with Sofie Edvardsson as animation director.
In addition to Gibson, the team at Mophonics included creative director Stephan Altman and executive producer Colette Huemer.
