An innovative new media campaign created for “Eran”, Israel’s emotional first aid service, by McCann Erickson Digital Israel

Kevin Ward of bi-coastal Original has directed a new, action-driven campaign for CASIO in which extreme athletes test the ultimate toughness of the company’s new G’zOne Commando™ wireless phone. Conceived by The Richards Group, the campaign comprises six spots and features elite athletes from surfing, BMX racing, adventure running and other sports.
In one spot, a boxer pounds a phone strapped to a heavy bag. It survives. In another, three phones are strapped to the hood and undercarriage of a rally car that then proceeds to roar through a rugged, dirt course. The phones continue to work flawlessly. The spots end with the tagline, “Shock resistant…water resistant…life resistant.”

New York, New York – ShootersNYC, the creative multi-dimensional production and postproduction company, partnered with the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) and the Ad Council to contribute editorial, visual effects and postproduction for a television spot in multiple lengths for their national multimedia public service advertising campaign, Feed the Pig. This financial literacy campaign helps 25- to 34-year olds take control of their finances and add saving to their daily lives. The humorous new commercial features an epic chase scene between a man and Benjamin Bankes, the campaign’s iconic “spokespig.”

For ShootersNYC Editor Anthony Marinelli, the creative process on the “Chase” spot began early in the pre-production stage with the agency and Director Matt Pittroff of Twist. The Director and Editor had collaborated together earlier last year on an extensive Pepsi Max project, which broke over the summer.

“Stylistically, we thought that it should feel like a ‘Bourne’ film or ‘Salt, movie’” explains Marinelli. “I scoured through YouTube clips to find different chase scenes in these movies and even found the Peter Bogdonavich film, ‘What’s up, Doc?’ as a reference, which has a hilarious climactic chase that relied heavily on sound design.”

According to Marinelli, it was the combination of music and sound design, which became the template to set the tone for ‘Chase.’ “There’s a moment where our hero does a leap-frog over a yoga class in the park, and I just kept hearing the ‘Six Million Dollar Man’ in my head,” he adds. “We grabbed that sound effect and it became one of the funniest moments in the spot.”

In addition to the successful editorial process for the Ad Council campaign, the ShootersNYC team also provided extensive visual effects and postproduction. Although the spot appears completely live-action, almost every scene incorporates a visual effect.

“One of the challenges for Flame Artist Mark Farkas was to give ‘Benjamin, the spokespig’ a personality,” Marinelli explains. “Because this is an actor in a pig mask, that meant animating eye and mouth movements as well as creating facial expressions. A fair amount of clean-up and touch-up work on the mask needed to be done. For the store scene at the opening of the spot when the lead actor receives his initial message, we also composited the different layers, adding reflections to the window and to the phone’s screen.”

For ShootersNYC Managing Director Jeff Beckerman, this project is representative of the way Shooters works with clients.

“Ideally, a collaboration begins as this one did at the very start,” Beckerman says. “We approach each project in a big-picture way and provide the talent needed to achieve the clients’ goals. When we have everyone on the same page from the get-go, then our team can make creative decisions throughout the process, as they did on this new spot for AICPA and the Ad Council. Anthony, Mark and the entire ShootersNYC team here were so excited to work with the clients and Director Matt Pittroff. It was a real creative group effort, and the spot reflects that.”

Today’s global economic realities reveal deep fissures within mainstream economic theory. Could this be the swansong of global capitalism or the beginning of an even more aggressive phase of neo-classical economics?
