Truth be told, the world doesn't really need another agency. But it could always use a great place to work, collaborate, and make a positive impact. As strategists and creatives we see the value of our skillset going much further than the next campaign or piece of content. Our commitment to creating a diverse, equitable, and progressive world starts with ourselves, the organizations we support, the people we collaborate with and the ultimately the work we do. Check back here often to see what we've been up to and the friends/partnerships we've made along the way!

Emerging Radiance: Honoring the Nikkei Farmers of Bellevue, WA has won the Tribeca X Award for best Immersive project! The Tribeca X Awards celebrate the achievement of best-in-class creators and companies who share a love of creativity and a mission to connect with consumers through the power of storytelling.
In the award announcement Emerging Radiance was celebrated for how it combines art and AR, the physical and the digital, to bring history to the present and connect generations. Emerging Radiance animates the stories of Rae Matsuoka Takekawa, Mitsuko Hashiguchi and Toshio Ito, three Japanese American farmers who were part of a thriving community of Japanese Americans that were forcibly removed from their land in Bellevue, WA during the second World War. This award honors their legacy and is a testament to over a year of collective work by artist Michelle Kumata (@michellekumata) and filmmaker Tani Ikeda (@taniikeda) with Meta Open Arts and the support of local community members. Milli's role was to build an immersive web experience that best reflected the AR/physical experience of the exhibit. We're honored to have been a part of this amazing team.

We won an ADDY!
But not just any ADDY. It's our first one. And it's also our first time entering.
The win is for a project very near and dear to our hearts: A film series as a love letter to the Seattle creative community and to the next generation of creators. With everything going on - including violence towards Asian Americans and Black/Brown folx - we recognize that it's more important than ever to tell their stories - our stories.
Thank you AAF Seattle and the ADDY's for recognizing them!
