To celebrate the 33rd birthday of The Warehouse, we created an online video that celebrated the lengths a little boy went to for his mothers birthday.
We then extended the campaign to an online app that let Kiwis post a personalised online card with a voice message to their friends and family on their birthday via Facebook. Twilio was used for the recording, and we created a set of dynamic share templates for people to choose from.

I wanted the app to have a handmade feel, so it connected to the online video. Each element was hand drawn and made to look like it was made of a marker pen.
