The magic of camp

Got to film a special interview for The Brighter Days Foundation. David McCreary was thrilled…at first.

What are you doing this Friday? Want to update your headshot, mingle a bit and see our new studio? Well then, I guess you now have Friday plans. Email [email protected] and tell us you want in! Stopping the registration at 35 people. See you on Friday!

When you need to trim some of the trees in the shot, use the drone's propellers. Perfect for w**d eatings, w**d whacking, w**d whipping, or trimming. However you say it, you will need to replace your drone after you are finished.

Groovy Plants Ranch is one of the coolest places to go visit. Capturing some lifestyle for their brand was easy because anyone that has been there RAVES about their customer service, selection of plants, and all around cool environment to be in. Have you been?

These kitchen remodels that we got to capture are absolutely insane! Custom cabinetry, under lighting, solid marble backsplash, flooring, and much more! What are the things you need to show off and show off well! Put in a little more effort than "I'll just snap a pic with my phone to show my friends later". Make em 🤤

We were composing a shot for interviews at the mock courtroom at Capital University. Our OG content creator Josh Snead was our test model as we lit the scene. Tell us this doesn't look like he is a suspect in a netflix documentary!? What do you think the documentary would be about? Murder? Rock climbing? The things you find in beards?

This year we did our first short film. "Penance" was a ten minute narrative that followed a thief who went too far. We made it for Winterfilm, LLC and got 11 nominations and 3 awards! Maybe we should do this short film thing more.

Cheers to the whole team and everybody who helped make it real.

Crimson Cup Coffee strives to establish meaningful and impactful relationships with the farmers they work with. We got to capture one of those relationships in Honduras.

Well, it's been awhile! While you haven't heard from us in awhile, we've been busy creating some of the coolest projects to date. We are a small team based out of Columbus, Ohio. We create content. That can be a video, a website, a magazine, or even an immersive-experience based off data! The whole point is to steal attention! Make yourself irresistible! (Main Character Energy is what the kids are saying)

So hang around. We are going to be talking about some of our projects, cool things that inspire us, and ultimately what sticks in our brains.

What have you been trying to create, but haven't taken that next step?

Make epoxy sexy again.

Nobody transforms sustainably salvaged trees into live edge wood slabs & solid hardwood furniture like the crew at Urbn Timber.

What a blast to see a true craftsman at work! Cheers, Tyler Hillyard! And shoutout to Newton the dog for his brilliant cameo.

Had an absolute blast working with the uber-talented Emily Syring on her BRAND NEW MUSIC VIDEO for "All This Time," streaming now!

☀️ With themes of light, Heaven, revelation and realization running thoughout the song, our goal was to really nail the lighting and atmosphere to do the lyrics justice.

As in life, it's all about balance. Video color correction breathes life into footage and that's what we tweaked until we got there.

How'd we do?

There’s a light coming
It’s been inside you
All this time

Way to go, Emily 🌻

Really proud of this one!

Our talented graphic designer, Karin, is simply the best. Better than all the rest. Better than anyone. Anyone I've ever met.

She wears all the hats and makes everything the light touches just a little brighter than when she found it.

Thanks, Karin, for just being you!

In a world where there is no shortage of information and literally anything is just one Google search, YouTube video or white paper away, the scarcity exists in the form of people that can package it neatly, explain it simply and tell people *why* it’s important.

Tune in to the Gravity Bandit Podcast, Episode 3, where we sit down with International Center for Creativity President, Jim Stevenson, where we dig into how to turn a “no” into a “yes” and what to do when enough people suggest to you, “Well, why don’t you just build that thing, then?”

We were so pleased to get the time with Jim and think you will enjoy our chat.

What do you VALUE?

This video is from a shoot for one of our favorite outdoor brands we’ve ever had the pleasure to work with, Hammock Gear.

The video is four years old and is *still* in use as the primary explainer video on their online shop’s product page. Woohoo!

Reflecting on the longevity of this vid, it got us thinking about some things from this shoot. Here’s 3 nugs we’ve learned since this puppy went live.

1️⃣ - This vid should have cost 10x more than it did. We ate the cost and busted our ass because we needed the work. That was us.
2️⃣ - At the time of shooting, the 10x too small budget felt, for the client, like it was 10x more than they could stretch and spend! That was them.
3️⃣ - The video worked, the product sold, and the client has made back their initial investment more than 20x.

So what’d we learn? Figuring out what we VALUE and working from that place on every project is essential. Do we value the experience more than the budget? The relationship more than the bottom line? Or is it valuing ourselves enough to charge what we’re worth and backing it up with a world class end product?

It’s a balance, to be sure, and one we’re working through constantly as a scrappy agile team of creators.

Cheers to the process ⚖️🍻

Have a break. Have a Kit Kat.

It’s so ubiquitous to culture, that you don’t even need to say the words for people to finish the thought for you.

And that’s precisely what Sam Hennig picked up on in creating this not-an-actual-Kit-Kat-ad-but-probably-the-best-Kit-Kat-ad ever.

It’s timeless Kit Kat and its message is so…now.

And that part’s great, but what really captured our hearts and minds was just *how* this ad came to be.

The story behind how Sam’s post came to be shared over 70,000 times (and then tens of thousands of other times on appreciation posts just like this one) involves teamwork, collaboration and how a group of creatives has weaponized the spec ad for the good of all mankind.

🚨 RIDICULOUS QUESTIONS NEEDED 🚨

Handling client requests that come from left field comes with the territory, no matter your industry.

It's important to know how to field difficult questions respectfully and constructively.

A lot of getting comfortable with this process just comes with time.

But when you're an intern, ya gotta learn a ton REAL QUICK.

So, dear reader, would you do our new favorite intern, Ian The Intern, a solid by helping with his professional development?

In the comments below 👇 we'd love you to share a WILD client question or request you've received (leave out all important identifiers as needed) that we're going to have Ian The Intern try to answer as if he was responding to a client.

Share your worst and we promise Ian The Intern will do his best.

(Ian, we believe in you, buddy. Now let's manage some expectations 😉)

If you know, you know.

Sometimes your message doesn't have to have the bells and whistles.

Sometimes it just takes one clear message, delivered with conviction, standing in the middle of a cornfield to become the stuff of local legend.

Just one message. One time. To get embedded into the cultural fabric of a place for all time.

The thing we love about this billboard is that it's seemingly been around foooooreeeeverrrrr (*Sandlot voice*)

It's inspired t-shirts, tattoos, cross-stiches, and intra-state soccer rivalries.

People know about this sign.

I think it speaks to doing just one thing well, over and over and over again, and not getting too caught up in the fluff.

What do YOU see when you see this sign?

I don't know about you, but we miss going places.

Where are YOU dreaming about for when it's safe to venture out into the wild again? Share below 👇 and add your own photo comment if you're so inclined.

This is the content we need after the year we all had. Have you blown through "History of Swear Words" on Netflix yet?

The trailer may be the single greatest teaser trailer we've ever seen. It uses the extraordinary talents and weirdness of a true national treasure, Nicolas Cage, paired with an ominous swelling drum beat to usher in a barbaric yawp of a swear so foul we couldn't help but look away.

We went all in on binging the six episodes because we couldn't not with that introduction.

Trailer is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XByiHpUvrj0

"People don't have to get good at something they're bad at. Why put them through that?"

Mark Foertmeyer, owner of Foertmeyer and Sons Greenhouse, had an idea that eventually became a giant success. It did not happen immediately. In our wide-ranging conversation, he shares with us his thoughts on leadership, management, playing to your people's strengths, not weaknesses and the importance of timing in order to be successful.

We Steal Attention

It goes a little something like this: we create marketing solutions that blow our customers’ minds, and then they blows their clients’ minds. Pretty soon it’s like amaze-ception over here, a vortex of awesomeness where everyone’s happy to get sucked right in. Forget everything you’ve heard about playing it safe—we’re crossing the streams. Think of us as those math answers in the back of your textbook. Working with us is so smooth, it can almost feel like cheating.
