Radke Signs Common Good
The directing collective that's backed by a full-up animation and VFX studio, they've produced otherworldly work for MTV Canada.
Radke to Represent MTV Darlings Common Good as a Directing Collective
Radke, based in Toronto, has signed directing collective Common Good for Canadian representation. Simultaneously, the company has released Common Good's new campaign for MTV Canada.
With a focus on visually-driven stories, Common Good is a directing collective backed by a full service design, animation and VFX studio. Comprised of award-winning directors Anthony Burns, Jamie Webster and Eric Makila, Common Good was launched in the autumn of 2010 with the mandate of telling stories driven by the kind of unorthodox and visually compelling imagery that has been the hallmark of their work.
Burns has been directing since childhood, but it was only when he joined MTV Canada that his work hit the mainstream. During his time at MTV his work has been featured in Stash and Motionographer, and has won countless BDA Awards. Webster is a graduate of the York University Sheridan College of Design program, and has also studied visual communication at The Bauhaus in Germany. He was recruited out of school by MTV Canada, where he was able to further indulge his obsession with telling stories that feature his surreal, design driven aesthetic. Makila brings a background in both film production and post production to Common Good. His first collaboration with Burns and Webster was "Different," a film for Girl Guides of Canada.
Common Good has created over 100 spots for MTV Canada. Here's "Campfire," "Memory Bank," "Beyond Death" and "Creation."
