— About The Project

In observance of September’s Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, Camp Sunshine — which provides recreation, education, and support programs for children with cancer and their families — needed a social media campaign to support the release of their new book, It’s Like Heaven. Each social video was to feature camp-related illustrations as a backdrop for quotes and experiences from campers, family, and volunteers shared via voice-over.

— Considerations

Keeping in mind that the series would be promoted on TikTok and Instagram stories, we had to figure out how to grab the viewers’ attention from the start. Part of that would include making beautiful illustrations, but we also needed to create visual metaphors representing each individual’s story.

— Our Approach

With 14 playful and colorful animations in total, we provided Fitzco and Camp Sunshine with an inspiring series of animations that would be posted on their social platforms every other day throughout September. These animations were used to invite viewers with warmth and familiarity into the vibrant world of Georgia’s Camp Sunshine.
