Along with co-founder Amy Capen, Robinson has been hard at work on the Flash-animated Esurance campaign, which has been all over the ol’ telly these days. Here’s the most recent spot, titled Hidden Camera, which was produced in conjunction with Ghostbot.

Erin 3surance Boards Star Trek

posted by aaron, 7.15 AM

Auto insurer Esurance got on board the Star Trek movie promotion mission, and in doing so they’ve redesigned pink-haired Erin Esurance. She’s been taken into the 3rd dimension… or 3D. She originally found popularity in her Flash-animated 2D form, and we can only wonder if she’s been beamed out of our universe forever. Go to the Star Trek website to vote for your favorite design.

Thanks to Rob Fendler for the story tip.

In this :30, Flash-animated PSA below, Erin Esurance reminds us all to go “lights out” at 8:30pm tomorrow for Earth Hour. The worldwide event was initiated by the WWF, with the concept that leaving your lights on is a vote for global warming.

While the Esurance team may be distracted by their recent coupling with the upcoming Star Trek movie, they haven’t stopped pumping out adventures for pink-haired Erin Esurance. This latest ad, titled Mission Savings, takes Erin to the slopes – on skis. We were pretty certain she favored snow boarding, but she’s apparently fond of both. The animation is overseen by Wildbrain, and produced by Ghostbot.
