Mastercard "Priceless Surprises"

With less than a month left in the year, Mastercard and McCann decided they wanted to do something big in Times Square for New Year’s Eve. Buck jumped right in to the deep end with them, pulling together a huge team across both our offices to create over 10 minutes of original animation. To celebrate a year of Priceless Surprises, Buck crafted 12 unique stories, one for each month of the year.

Below is an excerpt that I helped composite, animate, and design to air specifically during Valentines Day weekend in Times Square.
