The “Beaches” video was viewed in full more than 100,000 times on Facebook and Instagram alone.

CONTEXT

Running as a progressive Democratic in California’s 45th Congressional District, a longtime Republican stronghold, Porter faced an uphill battle.

“The animation by Kilter allowed for a visceral connection to the question being posed by Katie: who do you trust to protect our Orange County jewel—our beaches and ocean front? In a race that was won by under 10,000 votes, this work mattered.”

THE ASSIGNMENT

Working on a tight timeline we partnered with the team at OPRO to develop illustrations and motion graphics for a series of pivotal digital campaign ads.

OUR SOLUTION

By visualizing a clear and authentic narrative about the issues that mattered to Porter we helped her to break through to a wider audience.

After a neck-and-neck race that lasted more than a week after the polls closed, Katie Porter won the 45th congressional district in Orange County, becoming the first Democrat to hold the seat.
