Oregon Coast Aquarium

Wow, That's Different

An artfully animated commercial created to help build tourist awareness of the Oregon Coast Aquarium. Happy Trails created unique animation featuring a kaleidoscope of aquatic life befitting the campaign’s message of “Wow, That’s Different.” This unusual ad highlights an assortment of sea creatures that you might see on any given day while at the Oregon Coast Aquarium. The team at Happy Trails Animation rushed storyboards, assisted with creative, shot all reference footage (seagull, sea life, people), collaged, inked and digitally painted images as well as scouted, staged and filmed the people in the commercial.

This award-winning spot was a terrific success, produced from start to finish within a strict two-week timeline for local broadcast.
