Just this year, the studio's XBox Glitch campaign was the first of its kind to integrate TV commercials and web content, utilising a knack for innovative storytelling and high-concept design. 'We merge high-end design and polish with the ability to solve very complex and seemingly impossible creative propositions,' says B-Reel's Lins Karnes.
