DO YOU HAVE BRACKETBRAIN?
Bracketbrain is a real condition that affects millions of people experience every March. And the only way to treat it is with Tournament Challenge. To spread awareness about this serious affliction, we made a pharma spot for ESPN. Just in time before the madness starts all over again.

TINY BILLBOARDS
Every year, like clockwork, our resolutions fail. So we had a better idea. Make them smaller, like Wild Planet Sardines. Introducing Small Fish Resolutions. We built hand-crafted custom tiny billboards 1/64 the scale of regular-sized ones. Then we installed them in San Francisco.
I served as both writer and director of this campaign.
And like all of your favorite campaigns, we released a BTS Film showing the making of the billboards.
On Wild Planet social in peak resolution season we offered up easy to do, hard to fail resolutions. Those who did the thing and shared proof, earned free sardines.

SODA POWERED CAR WASH
Evolution Fresh makes 100% real, clean organic fruit soda. Other sodas use chemicals that strip rust off metal. So we found a better use than sipping on them, cleaning cars. Introducing, the Soda Powered Car Wash. For one day only in West Hollywood, hundreds of people pulled up for a special “De-Rust My Ride” deep clean, and got their $100K+ BMWs and Mercedez Benz’s cleaned with the chemicals found in Coke and Pepsi.
