SQUARE FOR RESTAURANTS 2021 CAMPAIGN
Produced 4 x 60s commercials for Square for Restaurants for 4 x of their markets. We filmed through the worst of the pandemic in Sydney, Los Angeles, Portland, & London. Despite all of the hurdles in our way we were able to pull off something really clean highlighting some restaurants that pivoted during the crisis to stay in business.

Slingshot 2019 New model commercial and catalog campaign
Directed by: Dean Bradshaw
Agency: Solve
We really pulled off the impossible here in terms of car commercials and catalog campaigns. The budget was so ridiculously small that even in hindsight writing this a year later I can’t believe we did it $123 under-budget. On budget, I know.. but it was less than the underwear commercial I did in 2017. I was only involved in prep and physical production for this one.
2 shoot days, 7 locations between Malibu and DTLA, 3 units, 7 vehicles, 8 models and stunt drivers, plus perfect weather and shit ton of coffee.
In my humble opinion I think there was better footage that what made it into the final spot but here it is:

MeUndies 2017 Holiday Commercial
Director: Nick Martini from Stept Studios - https://steptstudios.com/
Agency: Vol. 4
Director of Photography: Amado Stachenfeld - http://www.amadostachenfeld.com/
Really fun and playful commercial for the softest undies in town. Seriously though... you should try them. Done w/ the agency Vol. 4 & Stept Studios, director Nick Martini and I really pulled off the impossible. Many times when a production gets a job that has a tiny little budget like this one, normal commercial producers say it can't be done, but honing from the world of docs... I have a different mentality. When I got hired for the job I told them, that it will certainly be difficult, but that I've never gone over budget before and that we could make it work if we got creative. Their response, "you will on this one.
Challenge accepted.
Anyhow, what we did for just shy of 43k is insane. Props to all the folks we had on board the project. The lens work of the DP, the amazing PAs, and especially the hard work and great attitude of the production designer... seriously a team effort.
