For a company that only officially launched in June, we’ve had a remarkably exciting winter. Let’s take a look at what we’ve done so far, beginning with our shiny new reel!
Now that’s what I call exciting! Did you see all those cuts?! There were like 128 of them! I wonder how I know that…
You may have missed some of that with all the excitement, so let’s break down some of our recent projects in a fancy bulleted list!
- Chicago Innovation Awards – We were shocked when our friends at the CIA agreed to our pitch to shoot them jumping out of an airplane for their 2010 program introduction video… but maybe we shouldn’t have been. The CIA has been one of our most trusting and creatively open partners over the years. Apart from our annual participation with the CIA, we conceived and produced a :30 spot that aired hundreds of times in the midwest. The spot brought in a record number of nominations to the constantly-growing award program. We’ve been working with the CIA for over 3 years now and it’s truly been a joy and a pleasure seeing (and helping!) them grow into the highly respected program they are today. View the spot and, better yet, visit their site to learn more!
- The Baker House in Lake Geneva, WI brought us on board to promote their beautiful bed and breakfast. The new owners put a ton of love, personality and renovation work into their 19th century marvel of a home and we had an absolute blast getting to be a part of their launch. We shot this video for them in the midst of a midwestern summer but launched the video in late fall to continue the momentum through winter. Our video brought in a 2000% increase in web traffic to their site in short order. That sounds like a number we just made up, but I promise we did the math right.
- Brain Injury Association of Illinois - Another longtime partner of ours commissioned more educational videos and we happily pitched in. The BIA is a fantastic organization with whom we are proud to be partnered. We also put together their Toolbox Website to promote the videos and other public services they offer to people dealing with brain injuries.
But wait, there’s more! We’ve got a handful of very exciting projects on the horizon as well! Let’s take a look at what we’ve got on the cold, Chicago-skyline-filled horizon!
- MJSI – We’re developing a national campaign for an environmentally-friendly toilet conversion unit designed by the brilliant folks at MJSI, an award-winning Chicago company. Our campaign will coincide with Earth Da, so keep an eye out on your favorite home improvement shows!
- Artists & Brands tapped Fresh Giants on a huge project for a soon-to-be Latin pop star! We can’t discuss the details yet, but keep an eye on their website to get an idea of what we’re working on!
- Capron Enterprise asked us to redesign their website from square one. Keep an eye on this space for the new design when it’s launched!
