WATSON // Celebrating 5 Years

5 YEARS IN …

While we were established in 2008, Matt’s only been doing this full time since 2013. It’s hard to believe that we’ve strategized, designed, coded, illustrated and filmed for clients big and small for half a decade now. A big thanks to everyone for all your support over these last five years; I still can’t believe how lucky we are to have such wonderful clients (see a sample of recent work below). All of us here at Watson are looking forward to another five years and can’t wait to see where we end up at the grand-old-age of ten!

THE NEW YORK YANKEES

Yes, those New York Yankees. It may have taken us five years, but we’ve finally made it to the Big Leagues. No matter your baseball allegiances, it’s impossible not to be impressed by Yankee Stadium, and our visit was certainly inspirational. The result? A powerful, multi-tiered club experience for season ticket holders and loyal fans.

STRENGTH MEETS GRACE

Working with the Oregon Ballet Theatre was as fascinating as it was rewarding, and we’re so proud to have them as a partner. This from Artistic Director Kevin Irving: “We are so thrilled with the work that we did with Watson, I cannot give them enough credit for having run the process so thoughtfully and with so much creativity and with so much investment in our world. And, you know, at the end of the day, could you ask for more?”

MEET CIRCLE (With Disney)

We’re pretty certain Naomi – star of the latest promotional video Watson created for CIRCLE – has a big career ahead of her. Watson worked with CIRCLE to conduct national qualitative research for new markets, building a comprehensive strategy for retail and online growth. The results have led to CIRCLE’s revised messaging and packaging, as well as the above video written, directed and produced by Watson.

MOCCAMASTER

From precise temperature through its copper boiling element to the perfect bloom from its custom outlet arm and basket, Moccamaster obsessively makes a perfect cup of coffee every time. Handmade in the Netherlands, Watson brought a similar obsessiveness to their North American launch with hand-drawn illustrations, original photography and video, Magento website and packaging.
