The Bee Line
Don’t spiral, just dial. We developed and produced The Bee Line, a YouTube series where callers receive candid dating advice from their favorite stars. Each episode steps inside the Bee Line offices as our hosts answer calls and share hot takes in special segments with surprise guests.

Calls were sourced via a custom landline number and pop-up phone booth events hosted by the Bumble team. Production design for each episode included details and props specific to each talent as easter eggs for their core fanbases. In addition to the hero long-form, we also produced short-form cut downs and unique, separately-shot segments such as “Make Your Move.”
