Broadcast Experience

From local radio to national TV, I've created a wide range of broadcast materials.

Below you will find a few of the TV spots I have written, storyboarded, cast, produced and post-produced. From fine home furnishings to fun kids haircuts, no client is outside of my abilities.

In addition to TV, I have written and produced everything from full length radio spots to short sponsorship billboards.

Century Tile is a Chicago-based 12 location retail flooring chain.

For this TV spot, we wanted to let the audience know that Century Tile offers more than just the low prices they are known for, they also have helpful experts that will aid in selecting the best flooring for the customer's needs. We also left a 10 second hole at the end to be updated regularly with special messaging.

I wrote, cast, produced and post-produced this spot.

Plunkett Home Furnishings was a high-end home furnishings retailer with six showrooms in Chicagoland and St. Louis.

While most of the spots I created for Plunkett's were sales-oriented, the spot linked to the right was made to help build the brand and and highlight our talented interior designers. A small mention of savings was added to the end as a call to action.

I wrote, provided art, produced and post-produced this spot.

 

 

Metro Self Storage

With over 90 locations nationwide, Metro Self Storage is a big player in the self storage game.

Because the self storage market is very homogenous, with little differentiation between providers beyond location, we made this spot to help give people a reason to choose Metro over other providers.

I wrote, cast, produced and post-produced the spot.
