BUCK is a global creative company that brings brands, stories, and experiences to life through art, design, and technology.

Blur approached BUCK with this seed of an idea for the third season of Netflix’s “Love, Death + Robots” —  “a zombie apocalypse in tilt shift” — and asked if we could make it funny.

We said hold our tiny beer.

When our frequent collaborators at Microsoft needed a campaign for their new Surface laptops, we conjured up some visual metaphors and packaged them into a smooth, ASMR-style film. Hit that like and subscribe button.

To accompany the release of Transportation Alternative’s new Spatial Equity NYC tool, we created a short film that highlights how data can reveal the inequities across NYC streets and city planning—and provide positive solutions for the people of New York.

A Day in the Life: Prita Gopiram

Airbnb’s new “Aircover” insurance has your backside (and money) covered while you enjoy your stay.

We stepped in to help visualize memorable moments through a miniature, architectural dreamland built entirely by hand while a cast of composited CG characters revel in the joys of a stress-free vacation. 

Ahhh, the thought alone gives us itchy feet.

With an acquisition afoot and the pandemic soaring
Mailchimp called on BUCK to help tell a story.

One about love and loyalty and strength in teams.
About commitment and friendship—dedicated to their faithful employees.

The great tale grew with the help of our drawings
Down windy paths and open doors that were calling

To a joyful conclusion filled with arty celebration
A book bound tight with thanks and appreciation.

Coda brings all your words, data, and teamwork into one powerful document. Familiar and simple, but evolved for modern workflows. 

Together with Coda, we dreamed up arresting combinations of animals, plants, and tools that represent the powerful mash-ups of productivity possible within a Coda doc. We then rendered these fictions of biology as whimsical naturalist drawings complete with faux Latin names.

Maybe nature can’t keep up with our imaginations. But Coda can.

Taxes stink. What if doing your taxes were chill instead? For the launch of Cash App Taxes we manifested our best selves to dream up a low-stress campaign full of calm, gentle, ASMR inspired vignettes to ease viewers through the process.

In the fall of 2021, a golden ticket fell into our laps — an open brief from Cartoon Network for the launch of their new pre-school platform, Cartoonito.

For this amazing opportunity we conjured up our greatest act yet: a lovable, quirky group of instrumental sound-makers known as “The Beepers.” Together, they form a fun, ever-evolving, jam band that rocks out with their crocs out while learning valuable life lessons.

Almost a third of food grown in the U.S. never gets harvested because it doesn’t meet the superficial standards of a traditional grocery store. 

That’s nuts. (And also tomatoes. And zucchini.) 

This brand film celebrates how Misfits Market has worked out a better food system that gets high-quality, responsibly sourced goods to your door for less.

Vivo's ask was a designer's dream: they needed beautiful, high-end content to adorn the in-store displays at their flagship store in Bangkok. Without a dither, we joined them to imagine a series of visual environments to help elevate the shopper's experience.

Vivo Flagship

A comprehensive rebrand for our fintech friends, bringing their entrepreneurial spirit and focus on small business to life via an entirely new brand language.

In celebration of Nike’s 50th anniversary, BUCK partnered with the Nike Global Brand Experience team to bring the brand’s past, present, and future to life in stores globally through a WebAR experience that captures the spirit of DNA (Department of Nike Archives) and supports the future of storytelling within the retail space.

The AR experience is a portal into the DNA archives for visitors to Nike stores. Through the virtual display of culturally-significant artifacts from 11 stories, the experience encourages consumers to engage with Nike’s legacy.

Tinder is down for some casual fun and so are we! The result of our steamy hookup is a humorous spot which shifts the focus from the tech-driven app to our Darwinian need for human connection. 

For maximum tactility we use 3-D characters and practical sets. The result is a world you want to roll around in, in the buff.
