STATE FARM: Various Projects

Currently over at the wonderful Agency Translation. Producing a bunch of Digital Stuff for State Farm. More updates in the world of Translation coming soon…

GALBANI “Italy’s Favorite”

Wrapped producing the post end of things for Galbani Mozzarella’s American premiere commercial. My producer partner Vera Kacurova (Vera did the production in Rome, not bitter, not bitter at all) while I handled the post at Red Car NY with editor JP Cadaveira. Grading was handled by Victor Mullholland from Company 3. Record and Mix was done at Audio Engine. Spot was produced with Bullet for Partners+Napier. Directed by David Gaddie from The Colony and produced by B-Reel.

PRIMAL ROOTS “Muse”

Just wrapped production on a one-day shoot on a beautiful spot for Constellation Wines US. We shot on location in Van Cortlandt Park in the Bronx.
The shoot was for a brand new wine, yet to be released, called Primal Roots.
The spot was directed by Indrani, shot by Pergrin Jung and is being cut by Deirdre Bell at Red Car. The agency is Partners+Napier.

NEW WORLD PASTA “Pasta Evangelista”

Just wrapped 3 days of production on New World Pasta’s 7 spot campaign for a hilarious new spokesperson and conceptual way to get America excited by pasta!
The shoot took place in Williamsburg, Brooklyn and was directed by Nick&Ben, produced by Greencard New York and I was the Agency Producer for Millennium Communications.

HYATT “Trailers” with HUMBLE TV for BBDO

Just wrapped producing a series of fake movie trailers for Hyatt promoting their involvement with Morgan Spurlock’s new movie “The Greatest Movie Ever Sold.” I produced the spots for Humble TV with director Nick Regalbuto. We shot 3 spots over two days in The Palisades, NJ and Manhattan. Great Production Company, great agency team and great client… couldn’t ask for more.

SKITTLES “Rat Race”

Produced spot one of a mini web campaign for Skittles through TBWA/Chiat/Day. Directed by Jordan Bloch, shot by Benji Bakshi, the spot captures the ever so alluring oddness that is Skittles. Skittles is definitely a fun brand to work with. Conference calls consists of “how can we make this more uncomfortably weird?” Nice.
Check out the spot here on facebook.

JOINING BULLET…

I’ve made the transition to join a wonderful producing collaborative called BULLET. If you don’t know of them, check them out here BULLET. Co-owned by Award Winning Agency Producer Oscar Thomas and Award Winning Music Supervisor/Producer Patrick Oliver with a wonderful Managing Director Amy Hull and Business Manager Judy Brazong on board, I’m super excited to be joining this team!

Here is some recent press on Creativity.

Check back to Bullet constantly for updates on work and my current producing reel.

FILM ORANGE SITE AS BLOG

If you’ve been to the web-site… you’ve noticed that there hasn’t been an update since mid-September. I can assure you that things aren’t slow. Quite the opposite. I’ve been really busy producing a lot of projects and have a new venture to announce that I have joined. Over the last few months, I’ve produced a great CG/Live Action spot for Kodak and Partners+Napier, with directors Nick&Ben and Animation house Nathan Love. I also traveled all through the state of Ohio, literally (exciting right?!), producing a series of doc’s for Newscorp’s new application The Daily, through Fake Love. After Thanksgiving I produced a spot for Nokia that should be live any day now. Starting off the New Year, I produced a live event/promotional spot for British Airways with director Jordan Bloch and I am now producing a web campaign for Skittles, with TBWA/Chiat/Day again with director Jordan Bloch. In the next week I’ll be agency producing for Millennium Communications for their Ronzoni Pasta web spots, with Greencard Pictures and Nick&Ben.

So from now on, I’ll be using FilmOrange.com to blog about projects and will direct all work related questions and postings to www.Bullet.tv.

2011 is starting off great… and just looking for more to come!
