The deets.

United Airlines approached Miller Creative to build a series of :30 second safety reminders that would play in their ramp breakrooms to help improve the safety of employees working around the aircraft.

The challenge.

To find a creative way to present a large number of safety reminders to an audience that is on break and has very limited time to watch a safety reminder. We also had to figure out a way to create animations that were understandable within environments that did not have audio support.

The solution.

Miller Creative developed a 2D animated character named DAX. DAX is a likable yet unsafe ramp worker. Whether it is safe driving, hydration, dangerous goods or jetblast, DAX seems to enthusiastically find his way into dangerous situations.

No audio? No problem.

This :30 second narrated animation also was created to work in environments that did not have audio support. For viewers with audio, the series was offered as a multilingual program that graphically demonstrated the results of unsafe behavior on the ramp.
