The Collective Project gained massive momentum by working with Robert Downey Junior to produce an authentic (unpaid) account of his experience delivering a newly designed Iron Man style bionic limb to seven-year-old Alex. RDJ’s witty and sincere presentation of the bionic limb included a side-by-side comparison of Iron Man’s arm and the arm Albert Manero made for Alex. His star-struck reaction to the surprise was heartwarming and inspiring for tens of millions of people.

Making a connection with the college student target required the direction and production of an original documentary that struck the elusive balance of disarming authenticity and goose-bump-inducing inspiration, all in service of a free software app, Microsoft OneNote. The account of Robert Downey Junior’s experience delivering a newly designed, Iron Man style bionic limb to a star-struck child is hard not to love.
