Colormatics

Never in the 152 years of the MLB’s existence have the umpires sported a branded sponsor patch…until now! That’s a whole lot of content waiting to be deployed online, broadcasted on TV, and posted to social media; all created by Colormatics! Your Friendly Neighborhood FTX was now a major player within the baseball scene; the only thing missing was a recognizable brand presence in the stands. Our solution was to create a memorable character that MLB fans would come to love; Introducing: Moon Man. The geeky, yet, endearing mascot would soon be rushing the fields of MLB stadiums. Moon Man plushie, anyone? Trouble in Suburbia Ever since MLB started referring to long homeruns as “moon blasts,” Moon's daily routine has taken a turn for the worst. This was the basis for a comedic television spot that would appeal to both families and baseball fans. Going about his day at a variety of locations, only to be constantly targeted by flying baseballs. The grocery store, local diner, movie theatre; No matter where he goes, people always shoot for the moon. Telling a Story From sketches to storyboards to artistic renderings, our team of artists came together to tell the story of Moon Man from start to finish.   It’s the (not so) Little Things Our production consisted of three film days in some of LA’s most iconic set locations, including the famous Pink Motel. Carefully curated set design was key to bringing the character to life, with Production Designer, Jason Hamilton, honing in on every detail. Look closely! Are you able to find all the easter eggs hidden throughout Moon's world? Read More

Its mission as a nonprofit is to provide unbiased information to help people make smart insurance choices to protect their loved ones. Puerto Rico’s Sweetheart As a model, actress, dancer, and producer, Roselyn Sanchez made her debut on the big screen in the Rush Hour franchise.

The only thing that exceeds the Puerto Rican Star’s love for entertainment, is that for her family. Family First Every choice Roselyn makes, she makes for her family. So, partnering with Life Happens for Life Insurance Awareness month was a worthy cause for the mother of two. Acting as an extension of the In-house Life Happens team, Colormatics developed a wholesome video script that was relatable to parents while staying true to the non-profit’s messaging. Speaking of Language  Joined by our trusted, local crew, Colormatics filmed the PSA in a beautiful South Miami estate. With Roselyn’s time limited to 5 hours, the team worked fast to capture the commercial, Q&A, Instagram Reels, and photoshoot. The voiceover was recorded in both English and Spanish, requiring precise translation and seamless delivery. The Editor’s Eye Back in the editing room, our editors worked their magic with color, graphics and sound design.

Hello Heart is taking on the #1 cause of death - heart disease. With its easy-to-use monitor and app, the company's mission is to empower people to understand and improve their heart health using technology and behavioral science. Spreading the Word Having done largely B2B marketing efforts, the Hello Heart team was ready to make their first consumer facing video. And not just any product explainer. Hello Heart wanted something fun, colorful, and eye catching. Each character/scene would be associated with a different customer persona as they navigate their own unique journey to heart health. Putting the Cardio in Cardiovascular The Colormatics team designed three colored sets to represent each persona. Furniture and props were sourced and spray painted for that extra stylized look. We'll admit it; our thrifted exercise bike from the 90s was the ultimate gem Read More

Colormatics, a creative agency specializing in Pharmaceutical and Healthcare marketing, partnered with Jubilant Pharma, a global integrated pharmaceutical company. The focus was to bring awareness to Venom Immunotherapy (VIT), an effective treatment reducing the risk of systemic reaction for patients allergic to stinging insects. By launching a strategic commercial campaign and a series of digital ads, the project aimed to reach a broader audience and inspire patients to seek treatment, subsequently increasing VIT sales. The Challenge Hymenoptera venom allergy, one of the leading causes of anaphylaxis in adults, poses a significant risk to roughly 7% of the US population. Without proper treatment, an estimated 220,000 people would visit the ER following a bee or wasp sting in the subsequent year. Jubilant Pharma needed a compelling strategy to bring awareness to VIT and its associated educational platform, "BeeAware," driving patients to seek allergists for this life-saving treatment. The Solution Colormatics devised an innovative marketing campaign centered around a commercial designed to resonate with a broad audience. They wrote the script, cast the actors, and integrated impressive visual effects—including VFX bee—to engage and inspire viewers. The commercial was aimed to not only educate about VIT but also to ensure the "BeeAware" name would remain memorable to viewers, encouraging them to seek more information on Jubilant Pharma's platform. The Implementation Beyond the commercial production, Colormatics also created a series of photographs for use in digital advertisements. This comprehensive approach ensured the campaign reached potential patients across different platforms, maximizing its impact. The Results The final commercial and the accompanying digital advertisements were well-received, successfully bringing the desired awareness to VIT and BeeAware.com website. While the immediate response was positive, the ultimate success of this initiative will be measured by an increase in VIT sales and a decline in ER visits due to untreated Hymenoptera venom allergies.

But eight years later, Squatty Potty's messaging and brand are still based around the same viral spot. Squatty came to Colormatics to create a new campaign focused on rebranding to a new audience and converting sales for the holiday season. Approach Colormatics began this project with market research and surveys to pinpoint the best target audience and messaging strategy within that market. The study also increased understanding of the product's place in the market and the category's position overall. Informed from this research, the creative team developed an approach that was…unconventional. Execution Understanding that there was no way to recreate the magic of the Unicorn, Colormatics created a new campaign based on the same frenetic and off-the-wall energy of the original Unicorn video.

Colormatics intended to capture all walks of life that make up Miami’s vibrant community. Miami State of Mind Filming 8 locations in 3 days required two different teams on the ground.
