Description:
We had the incredible pleasure of working with Grammy Album of the Year winner Kacey Musgraves to create a cover of Coldplay’s “Fix You” for this gorgeous animated film about sustainable farming.
Kacey and her production team recorded a beautiful cover of Coldplay’s “Fix You”, then brought us on to provide additional production for the film version.
Together, we worked with the agency and director to craft an arrangement that perfectly complements the film, and creates a stirring build as the story unfolds.
The project was led by the agency, and is a follow up to their heralded 2011 film, ‘Back to the Start’, which featured Willie Nelson’s cover of Coldplay’s “The Scientist”.
Both films were created to raise awareness and affinity for Chipotle's commitment to high-quality ingredients, family farms, and sustainable agriculture.
