Wild Waves asked SINTR + FORTRESS FILMS to create a year-long advertising campaign concept that would communicate through broadcast, radio, environmental, and the web.
 
With the challenge of spreading awareness that Wild Waves is two parks in one (water and theme park) we created a campaign that would feature all the highpoints targeted year round attractions.
 
We developed the "Go___" campaign concepts from scripts, storyboards to animatics.
