Featured Projects

AIGA Design Conference

AIGA

For AIGA’s 2017 design conference we showed the many instances of "connection" we all experience every day. We made more than 25 branding elements, with all animation, design, music and sound performed in-house.

The Purge History

USA

To announce the new series The Purge, USA tapped Primal Screen to create a crash course in the show’s deadly alternative history. Hand-drawn illustrations and a stern, lecture-hall voiceover reinforce the academics, while the sound design betrays a more sinister truth at the heart of the lesson. All illustration, design and sound were by Primal Screen staff.

Preacher

AMC

To celebrate and announce Preacher’s second season, we collaborated with AMC to make this whiplash-fast promo that sets a gaudy salvo of flames, gunshots and tire squeals to the joyful beat of a Go-Go’s tune.

Portal Chase: Save the Baby

Nickelodeon

At first the plan was to make an animated short linking favorite Nick characters, using classic video games. But as the spot took shape, it became clear that the game should be playable. So while we worked on the animated piece for broadcast, Nick made the games using some of the same art. Primal Screen did character design, animation, graphic design and edit.

Hero My Way

Cartoon Network Latin America

Cool new animation and eye-popping colors and graphics come together to extol all the heroic qualities of Cartoon Network Latin America's stars. All animation and design is by Primal Screen.

Mad Men Psychedelic Journey

AMC

It was a dream come true — working with one of our favorite designers on one of our favorite shows. To mark Mad Men's passage into the 70s, we brought a new illustration by super-designer Milton Glaser to groovy life. Dig!

Deep Pondering

TBS

For this ongoing series of co-branded spots for TBS, we explore how different brands impact the life of one quiet man. This one is for Glad Bags.

Pencil Case

Nickelodeon

Draw draw draw draw! For Back-to-School, the Bubble Guppies go gaga over their new pencil cases in this interstitial music video for Nickelodeon. We did all the design and animation.

PBS Kids Montage

PBS

To supplement our 2014 relaunch package, comprises some 135 distinct pieces, all serving to reinforce the idea that PBS Kids is a fun, educational partner whom parents of young kids can trust. Of course we had a load of fun working on this project, but that wasn't our only reward: PBS Kids was recognized for Best Channel Design and Channel of the Year in 2016.
