ESPN
“Hey ESPN team! It’s been a minute since we teamed up, and honestly—we’ve been itching to get the crew back together. In the meantime, here’s a mix of fresh updates and some classics we made side by side. Let’s make some noise again. 😎”
Your friends @ State
The Latest
Ground up
We love the magic that happens when animation and live-action come together. It takes storytelling to a whole new level—full of energy, movement, and straight-up highlight-reel creativity.
And when sports enter the mix? That’s when we really start heating up. Think NBA Jam—raw streetball energy meets illustrated flair, unlocking moments that are straight-up boomshakalaka!
“Working with a Purpose + Renovating Public Basketball Courts ”
Yay!Graphika Manila
We went bananas for this one! Bringing our love for cel animation, seamless transitions, and handcrafted effects to the forefront, we crafted a pure celebration of motion—bold, dynamic, and unapologetically fun. Inspired by all the colors that make Graphika the best conference in Asia, with a touch of whimsy from pigs, owls, astronauts, beetles, and bunnies, this one moves!
“Bad Dreams turn into something fun! Also, we hung out with Murakami! ”
Apple
For our friends at Apple, we crafted 30 heart-shaped idents to build a modular animation library. The result? A toolkit of weekly spots for the Games section of the App Store—each one fresh, fun, and ready to play.

Yay!ESPN x STATE = ❤️
ESPN Idents
What do you do when given carte blanche to do whatever you want? Such fun times making some cool-as-hell idents for our compadres at ESPN International. And then we all won a shiny Gold Award. True story.
“2D or 3D? Character or typography? No need to pic, we did it all. ”
State crewESPN The App
Super-sweet commercials retelling the classic story of “boy-meets-app, app-meets-boy”. We got real friendly with our design, animation, and audio teams and coerced them into creating these hyper-amigo gems.
Google Pixel 9
We busted out all our top-tier hand gestures (think: finger guns and dramatic pointing) for the Google Pixel 9 After Party. Oh, and yeah, we threw in a phone—because apparently, that’s important. Big love to the creative geniuses at Ogilvy NY for making sure we didn’t just stop at jazz hands!
“Three Weeks? What?”
Every ProducerNetflix . Gladiators
On this one we learned all about crushed knees, broken ribs and torn muscles. And spandex. Oh, and nipple surgery. Traumatizing? Not as much as the real American Gladiators experience back in the ’90s. We were thrilled to re-unite with Campfire and directors Jared Hess (Napoleon Dynamite, Nacho Libre) and Tony Vainuku (Untold, In Football We Trust) to create in-story animations and archival recreations for the new Netflix doc series #MusclesandMayhem.
“Over 45 minutes of animation. We made it happen.”
UsGoogle - Life Unfolds
We tried to fold every single object in this project with our pals at WTBR and Google to portray the brilliant mind of Nobuyuki Yamaga, a traditional Japanese origami artist. His unique approach to making beautiful origami while dealing with blindness is a real inspiration to all of us.
Riot . Masters Madrid
Four styles, four regions, four different artists—one vibe. This was a true Global collab with artists and talent around the globe that went far beyond just sharing files on Dropbox. We poured our hearts into this 360 campaign, collaborating with the talented team at Riot. When we say 360, we mean it. Everything from the Hero spot, key art, visualizers, and full design package to the sign that indicates the restrooms, each aspect was designed to immerse you in the world of Valorant. (Big shout out to Google Translate!)
Star Trek
Beam aboard our creative cosmos for Paramount+’s Strange New Worlds! Our team boldly ventured where no designer has gone before, conjuring up an array of diverse worlds that would make even Kliggons jealous. Turning our sci-fi dreams into warp-speed reality.
Unspeakable World
