A 15-second version of our new Ciroc Ultra Premium Vodka commercial is airing on Taxi TV, so don’t turn that thing off next time you jump in a cab.  We’ve had reports of dozens of sightings around NYC, but the sniper award goes to producer Justin Lundstrom for snapping this picture on his blackberry.

Lost in the Bermuda Triangle

We dispatched Andrew and Nev to Bermuda on Sunday to shoot a commercial for luxury resort Tucker’s Point, in Bermuda.  Poor guys.  These stills below are their first contact, along with the simple message “Everything’s Great.”

Harvard Business School : Days 2 - 7

Sunday, May 3rd, 2009

I recently spent a week at Harvard Business School, directing a new recruitment video for their admissions office.  The agency was Mono, the producers were Melody Roscher and Justin Lundstrom, the cinematographer was Ed David, the hotel was DoubleTree, and the time was fun.

All of these photos were shot on 35mm film (except the last one) by the inestimable Kelly Munson, Design Director at Mono.

I spent most of the time yelling into this box.

This was one of our more “high-concept” shots.  The guy in the yellow pants drove a boat when they were shooting the opening sequence of “The River Wild“!  Why is Jack Nicholson standing on the back of the boat?

Our last day was back in New York, shooting an HBS alum and one of the founders of Green Irene, PJ Stafford.   As you can see, Ed was shamed into both a haircut and a beardcut.
