We love the stories (like yours) that we get to tell. And it shows.

This is BQ Green We cut a short teaser for what we think is a feature-length story about an historically poor immigrant community confronting Robert Moses’ destructive legacy with a visionary plan for a new park.

This is DEM Sometimes being a filmmaker means getting access to really cool places. For this story about how NYC’s Department of Energy Management is radically reducing energy usage and greenhouse gas emissions, some of the places were literally cool – like the air conditioning towers on the roof of the rococo Municipal Building downtown.

eBay: Phishing Kids embody eBay’s mantra for communication; Open, Honest and Direct. The idea for using Go Fish as a vehicle for explaining “phishing” came as a note scratched in the middle of the night but that dream vision did not foresee what card sharps 10 years olds can be.

A Brief History of Child Welfare Astonishing fact: it was the ASPCA that had to step in to provide the first legal protection for an abused child in 1873. This short doc was eye-opening in many ways, including the realization that Dewey’s godfather James Wagenvoord was one of the most eloquent and dynamic photographic chroniclers of children’s urban street life in the late 1960’s and 70’s.

Discovered: The Virgins Pickerel Pie produced 13 episodes of DISCOVERED, a sponsored (DELL) interstitial series for Sundance Channel. Each episode in the series features a new, and to some degree “undiscovered” performer or band. The series can be seen on air as part of Elvis Costello’s SPECTACLE.

Denny’s Comedy Knockout Drop In Damien Lemon is hilarious. Fill him with coffee and pancakes and the man is DANGEROUS. Best time we’ve had at Denny’s since we introduced the Red White and Blueberry Pancake Special. Seriously, we did. And it is.

Lights Out: truTV To promote a new horror film, the mad geniuses at truTV asked us to film an elaborate (and terrifying) prank: film fans were lured to a creepy industrial loft to get a special sneak peek at the film’s trailer about an evil spirit who shuts out the lights before attacking. During the post-screening interview with the fans, the lights in the loft suddenly go out and -- Super fun to devise the mechanics and deliver the payoff of this shoot.

Bud Light: Real Reaction We worked with two Hollywood legends, the fabulous Hollywood Palladium, an art deco jewel box, where Betty Grable took requests from servicemen during WW2 and Jimi Hendrix played and, of course, Dan Cortese.

Get in the StarBox We invented the world’s first reality content machine. Open the door, (hidden) camera rolls. It’s that simple. But the video clips that the StarBox - with its’ combination of soundproofed, padded isolation and high-production values - generates are pure gold. Something very different happens when people express themselves when they’re alone.

Great Givers For almost a full year, we worked with The Bridgespan Group on a project for the Gates Foundation, interviewing more than fifty of the most effective and innovative philanthropists around the country. Amazing insight into the particularly American alchemy that can turn private wealth into public good.The crew were transfixed by the interviews.

Burlington for WEtv When you have long creative relationships with clients, periods of influence can be seen in the overall work. Picasso had his Blue Period, our recent work with AMC Networks definitely has a Busby Berkeley thing going on. Among the countless brave and unsung sacrifices Americans make for fashion was our models jumping on a trampoline in high heels.

Tutera Hershey's Kisses Over several projects, we’ve had a lot of fun working with master party planner and WEtv show star David Tutera. Combine Tutera’s bigger-than-life personality with a lifesize reindeer covered with Hershey’s Kisses and whomever was fighting that so-called War on Christmas just surrendered.
