DisneyWe were given a presentation of the work at Disney (formerly Kapoof )

Crispin Porter + BoguskyWe were taken to the city in a warehouse that is Crispin Porter + Bogusky. An amazing spaceand fun vibe. Big thanks to Matt Walsh and the CPB guys for sorting out the coach to Vail. N.B. The images that follow do not do their space justice as we couldn’t photograph all areas
