Currently Working On

...lots of different projects! Like SNV's brandstory, which will be an animated infographic about their unique way of empowering those in need.

 

Besides that, Calango is working together with Fabrique to produce another annual report for SNS Reaal, just like we did last year. But with a different approach, off course.

 

To top it off, Calango is joining forces with whensevenbecomesfourteen to embark on a unique animation/t-shirt/stop-motion adventure! Keep an eye out on the twitter/facebookfeed to stay in the loop!

 

And some other things that will be revealed as they get rolling.
