Press Release from DUCK

DUCK once again shows off its depth as a full-service production studio with an impressive spot for University Hospital's Rainbow Babies & Children's Hospital in Cleveland, Ohio. Led by the unique illustrated stylings of director and animator Hsinping Pan, with additional animation support from Yoriko Murakami, the studio handled all production and post on this colorful adventure.

UH RBC Awareness stars a happy couple, their young child, and the rainbow they use to protect him - first from a rainstorm that blackens a green-treed, blue-skied hilltop picnic, then as a boat keeping him safe from ocean waves, as a shield protecting him from the flames of a marauding dragon, and as the roof over the family home. A narrator reinforces the onscreen heroics by explaining that Rainbow Babies & Children's Hospital has spent more than a century designing an institution that cares as much about children as their parents do.
