A+E BRAND PARTNERSHIPS SELECT WRITING & PRODUCING WORKI sourced the show footage from many seasons of American Pickers and wrote the script. Along with my editor, I compiled all the pieces – show footage, VO, and Servpro’s footage/tagline into what you see above.
When I pulled this piece to use for a Holiday ID, my boss said, “it’s too boring. there’s so much empty space.” So, I wrote the poem you hear in VO over the first :15 seconds of the spot.
I pitched this concept to be a part of the Brand Partnerships franchise – CRTL ALT H which highlights little-known futuristic science facts. I sourced the footage from the A+E library and animated this spot using an existing After Effects template.
This piece has a sister which is the same concept but for Tide. Both spots won Promax Gold. This project had a quick turn-around and was all hands on deck. I was involved from concept to delivery and assisted on-set in Long Island.
I was not flown to this shoot in Hawaii for 4 x 2 min mini documentaries in partnership with Lionsgate’s Midway. I did, however, coordinate post-production and posted assets to Youtube, Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.
This was a bare-bones, tiny-budget shoot for Holiday IDs to be sold to sponsors. I befriended the art department and enjoyed learning from the crew while doing my actual job. Oh, and I took one for the team and babysat the puppies.
