Freecreditreport gets facelift

Mondial — Wed, 21 Jul 2010 20:20:27 +0000

Freecreditscore.com rebranded themselves as Freecreditscore.com and in the process ditched the old band mascots and searched across the country for the new band to sing those catchy songs. They held a American Idol style audition in New York, Chicago, and LA. 80 bands were filmed documentary style and online submissions were reviewed through the website. 12 semifinalists were chosen and then voted for online to narrow down to just 4 finalists. Each band got their own 30 second spot. The four finalist bands all get national media exposure during the MLB All-Star game, plus prize packages from Gibson® and Live Nation®. The three runners up will receive a $7,500 check to be divided among band members. The winning band will receive a $10,000 check, a full line of Gibson instruments including Pearl drum kit merchandise valued at $12,000, plus a studio session with music industry veterans and a chance to walk the red carpet at the 2010 MTV Video Music Awards..not to mention three 30 second spots. You can read more about all the specs and watch the videos at http://freecreditscoreband.com

Walmart Rollbacks

Mondial — Mon, 26 Apr 2010 22:44:22 +0000

Mondial recently wrapped up the end tag graphics for Walmart’s “Rollbacks” campaign. Andrew, who unfortunately rarely watches television and has yet to see it air, styled and animated the dropping arrow which are making their way into many of the retail giant’s newest commercials.

“Outliers” official selection Cannes Festival

Mondial — Tue, 23 Mar 2010 18:04:58 +0000

Last December, Mondial welcomed the sacrifice of sleep and well-being to work round two of the 48 Hour Film Competition. After winning the RVA round last August, the team was invited to compete at the international level. The genre this time was “End of the World”, and unlike 48s of the past, we weren’t required to include a prop, character or line of dialogue. Per usual – the full Mondial crew was involved. Nick was editor, Chris & Andrew were graphics artists, and Keeley worked on print elements.

Mondial hosted not just the post-production, but also the shoot with one scene done about 20 feet left of the skateboard ramp. The gaffer actually dropped into the shot. You can’t even tell.

Pizzza!

Mondial — Tue, 23 Mar 2010 17:57:59 +0000

Pizza Hut, a new client of The Martin Agency, needed a brand video and Mondial Creative Labs was pleased to help with its creation. After a week of diligent postproduction, takeout for every meal, and a nearly broken bike (evidence); the three-minute salute to America’s staple pizza place was completed. The collaboration between the talented Martin creative team and Mondial delivered a stellar product.

Hey Martin – Lets do this again sometime soon. We both seemed to enjoy ourselves, we get along really well, and lord knows you’re totally hot.

Groundhogs day

Mondial — Tue, 09 Feb 2010 18:41:45 +0000

The always creative Black Iris decided to throw a happy hour in celebration of Groundhog Day. Mondial was responsible for the poster/evite design (seen here) which then was translated into a full painted backdrop (seen here) by Andrew Carnwath. The groundhog was honored, everyone got their mugs taken in front of the backdrop, and props were in full swing. The groundhog made an appearance and he sure enjoyed the free arcade games, food, drinks, and good company. Thanks Black Iris.

CarlsCountryClub.com goes live

Mondial — Mon, 28 Dec 2009 16:50:27 +0000

The Country Music Culture site, CarlsCountryClub.com, is up and running. It was a fun design and build since the concept played off of the idea that this was a Country Club in the most rural sense. The back end utilizes wordpress and was customized to make ever aspect of the site editable since the client is a talented writer and updates daily. Make sure to try out the custom name generator, Countr-Fy Yourself, that changes your god given name into a country star stage name. For those of you over 18 make sure you find the hidden cookie…..what letter would you think a name would have to start with to get naughty. By the way this was the clients idea. We are all family men.
