The Bureau Of Small Projects

Find Your Place In Space. The Planetary Society worked with The Bureau of Small Projects to update their logo and brand strategy. The original logo was drawn on the back of a napkin by Bill Nye and they were looking for a more legible and modern logo – keeping the P that is formed by the rings of Saturn – and clear strategy to grow membership and increase engagement as the world reaches out to the stars like never before. The Planetary Society was co-founded by Carl Sagan and are led today by Bill Nye. The Planetary Society exists to empower and connect the world’s citizens to advance space science and exploration and some of the brightest stars in history are part of their legacy. There’s space for you! The Planetary Society is the largest space interest group in the world, and anyone can join. Their members are an international network of advocates with enthusiasm for space and interest in asking the existential questions that unite us. Where did we come from? Are we alone? The Planetary Society is independently funded and powered by members like you. So, you can take an active role in supporting space exploration, the search for life on other worlds, and protecting our planet from asteroid impact. Ask the big questions, seek answers through science & exploration, and join now. Read More

Home for all things comedy. The Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre was founded by Matt Besser, Amy Poehler, Ian Roberts, and Matt Walsh in 1999 in New York City and has since expanded to Los Angeles. And one of the truly cool things is when people who you love and admire become clients. As such we were absolutely delighted when they reached out to The Bureau of Small Projects to help expand their already significant online presence. Many agencies make their case studies to be about themselves, but the reality is: you cannot do great work without great clients and we are very blessed to have such wonderful ones. Because when you work with such delightful and magical people the results come organically. Read More

Nice Guys Finish First The Dodgers have won six World Series titles and 21 National League pennants. Eight Cy Young Award winners have pitched for the Dodgers, winning a total of twelve Cy Young Awards. The team has also produced 12 Rookie of the Year Award winners, including four consecutive from 1979 to 1982 and five consecutive from 1992 to 1996. But in 2011 a beating at Dodger Stadium left San Francisco Giants fan Bryan Stow brain damaged and disabled. The Bureau Of Small Projects was engaged to bolster the damaged image of the LA Dodgers and show people what the team was all about. Exploring the long standing rivalry between the Giants and the Dodgers, we decided to create a spot all about sportsmanship. Leo Durocher, the irascible former coach for the Dodgers coach coined the phrase “Nice Guys Finish Last” we decided to riff off of that and get to the heart of what it means to be a top competitor, what the Dodgers are really like and why “Nice Guys” actually finish first. The spot was so well received that we decided to include it in the feature film Kindness Is Contagious. A film all about being nice and the benefits of being nice. The documentary format, is much more cost effective than the traditional 30-second television spot and defies audiences’ short attention spans with content they’ll keep watching. With competition for consumer attention at an all-time high, story is what makes ads that people feel compelled to share. According to research, 92 per cent of consumers trust “earned” media – such as word-of-mouth messages or recommendations from friends and family – more than all other types of advertising. Read More

Being a loving, respectful human being is the most important thing we can be – but unfortunately it’s not prioritized in today’s social interactions, media discourses or school curriculum. In our accelerating, desensitized, digitally-driven, winning-is-all world, there’s an epidemic of casual disrespect, bullying, incivility, and rudeness. We are trying to change that with year-round school programs, community engagements, a global online community – and our annual flagship “Everyone Matters Day” which celebrates EVERYONE’S uniqueness as contributing to what makes their city or community vibrant.
