Sport Chek “Determination”
Here’s a spot I worked on earlier this year- A Sport Chek commercial starring NHL player Sidney Crosby. The premise is very straightforward- many slow motion shots of Sidney training hard in the gym, with the speed ramping up and building in intensity, and abruptly ending with tagline and logo lockup. I like working on…

Qatar Foundation – Pitch
Behold, another set of pitch boards for a commercial that wasn’t awarded. You might be thinking, “Wow, you had a bit of a losing streak, huh?” Actually I pull these samples arbitrarily from past work as it “ripens” for posting, so there really was no streak per se, but I think it’s also a learning…

Hotwire!
So, I’ve had to hold this one back for a while, but now I’m able to talk a little bit about the artwork I’ve been doing for the past few years on this Hotwire campaign. I’m not going to go into too much detail- other than to say this a rare scenario where I worked…

Whiskey Commercial
Earlier this year I had the pleasure of working with the talented director Emil Khar on a whiskey commercial. Emil has a real flair for cinematic storytelling without relying on dialogue, which, as a storyboard artist, I really appreciate. It’s always so much more interesting to tell a story in pictures without words, because it…

DSW & The Fox House
Last year, on Halloween, I boarded the DSW commercial that is airing right now (early March, 2013): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rwY5c7qOnKE&list=UUy9YrUdKJxzx6FPQrD_PytA&index=3 This commercial was a lot of fun to work on, and also very different, because I was up close and personal with the production, and in this case, it was a real treat. I received the scripts…

Old Navy Funnovations Inc!
[singlepic id=594 w=320 h=240 float=] Well well well, Its been almost a year since I worked on these Old Navy spots and so it’s probably ok to talk about them now. For those of you who don’t watch TV (the only excuse you might have for not seeing these ubiquitous commercials), these Old Navy…

Caveman!
So here’s a commercial I worked on back in April. I usually like to wait a while before I consider it “safe” to discuss a project on this blog, because, well, it’s not a good thing to release production artwork before the commercial airs! And even though I didn’t see this one air, I know…

Hockey meets Honda
Earlier this year I worked on a Honda commercial that featured hockey stars Nicklas Lidstrom and Corey Perry. In the spot, the athletes leave the sports arena and head to their Honda Pilot. Once inside, they are shocked to find hundreds of hats falling (as happens when an athlete scores a hat trick; 3 goals)…

Saw one of my commercials on TV… DSW “Where’d you get those shoes?”
[slideshow id=13] A couple of months ago I met with a new client and worked on their DSW commercial for a couple of days. It was rainy then, as it is now… good day to write about it. So anyway I worked on this shoe commercial and it was actually pretty hard! I did…

“Monopoly” Lottery
Here’s a fun series of boards. Kinda wacky. A “Monopoly”-obsessed man comes home and plays the lottery. His whole life revolves around monopoly… Some pretty funny visuals in here. I think I did a pretty good job of drawing the oversize monopoly pieces. [slideshow id=8]
