Agency websites: the ultimate canvases.
We were pretty impressed by Modernista’s attempt to embrace the stripped-down future of client relations, but BooneOakley’s new website made us grin wryly and raise a glass.
Yeah, that’s a YouTube video. The buttons in the video are clickable, and a timeline across the X axis lets you leap to whatever section you want to see first: “Featured work,” “About Us” and “Billy” — the story of a mild-mannered marketing director, who dies.
The work is joyful, the animation crappy and the humour shameless. We were like, here’s an agency that’s not concerned abut being the future; it’s the present, and it’s not afraid of embracing all its possibilities.
It’s also not afraid to put a bullet in somebody’s head shortly after he’s been axed.
