DUCK - The Team Behind the Team - (2012) :60 (US)

DUCK, long known for its robust and versatile directorial roster, brought together 10 of its best artists for a monster 12-spot campaign for the United States Olympic Committee via Y&R. In a continuation of the "Team Behind the Team" campaign, each of the animated spots tells the story of one US Olympic athlete and the special relationships that helped him or her rise to the pinnacle of his or her sport, and features a unique aesthetic and animated style.

"Y&R came to DUCK because they knew we were one of the few studios out there that could fulfill their request to make 12 thematically similar spots that each had a very different look and feel," noted DUCK EP Mark Medernach. "This is a massively important project that really shows off the incredible depth of talent that we've amassed at DUCK. The variety and quality of the work is breathtaking."
