The studio has created launch campaigns for products such as the Gillette Fusion ProShield razors, the OnePlus 3T smartphone, and several Google devices. Interactive and out-of-home work includes a display for Oreo in New York's Times Square[7] and a touchscreen display in the lobby of GE headquarters in Fairfield, CT.[8] The studio headed up the re-branding for Cartoon Network in 2010.[9]
