Cooper Tire / My Everyday Road Trip

Cooper tires are the tires for life’s every day road trips. But not everyone’s every day road trips are necessarily average, everyday road trips. This set of short documentaries features people who swear by Cooper tires to accomplish their unique, every day road trips. And if Cooper tires can handle their every day, they can handle yours too.

Rite Aid

RA Wellness Plus

The Wellness Plus campaign was a way to differentiate Rite Aid from the competitors by helping our consumers focus on achieving wellness. This was designed to appeal to consumers in the front of the store with beauty offerings and a strong rewards program as well as highlighting services and elevating the patient experience in the pharmacy.

RA KidCents

Rite Aid saw an opportunity to give back and we were excited to help. KidCents is a round-up program designed to support organizations who champion the wellness of kids. And what a difference it made on all of us. I’ll never forget working on this project. And yes, the butterfly in the video was a very happy accident.

Face The Music

The Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs, in cooperation with our Lottery client, were looking for a new campaign. This music-driven idea focuses on the denial people with gambling addictions are often in. The client went in a different direction, but I thought it was worth sharing.

Idea Written Into Song: People with gambling addictions often fuel the “lose-play-lose more”downward spiral by denying reality and ignoring the reality around them. They talk themselves into believing they are on the verge of a big win and that their losing streak is not permanent. The song “Rough Patch” underscores this common rationalization.

Just a little rough patch” – Demo Visual – Guy sings song as his house burns behind him
The guy sinks into quicksand as he sings the song
As the guy sings the song, his dog runs away and his home .

Campaign extends to real performers donating their performance. Even a dramatic read by CW.

La Tourangelle

Based in Saumur, France, the 150 year-old family-owned oil mill needed a 10th anniversary campaign to celebrate their location in the United States. They still sell the posters to this day and I still use their delicious oils.

PA Lottery

i-Lottery

The Lottery client was rolling out their mobile games, so using the iconic sandwich board used at retailers made a lot of sense for these minimalistic posters.

Winner Awareness

I love a campaign with serial spots. Along with tiaras and sashes. I only wish we did it in the social age.

Holiday

Over the last two decades, I have had the pleasure of doing many of the Holiday POS, OOH and Social posts. As they say, nothing says the holidays like Scratch-Offs. Here are a few.

ALCOSAN

ALCOSAN Booth Concept

The client needed a new convention booth design.

I built in a kinetic flow for their giveaways while outlining their programs.

Summer Sweeps Design

A design for their Summer Sweepstakes designed to increase engagement for a six-week period.

Sample Social

The thought was to break out each of the characters for each of the weekly promotions. This is a quick rough I put together to give an idea of how it could work.

Campaign Concept – Let’s Look Up-River

Let’s give people a glimpse into the future of a clean three rivers.

Covestro

Covestro, formerly Bayer Material Science, wanted us to create compelling and differentiated creative for the Pittsburgh Airport venue. We wanted to communicate who they are and what they do in a way that was unexpected, relevant to the venue and a departure from the usual corporate sponsor dryness. So we exploited the greatest fear of air travelers – misbehaving kids.

We were excited to be informed …

The Problem Polymer

This concept based on a character who’s a bad little polymer, and Covestro is working to make him behave the way he should. Out of the category tone for sure, but that could be a good thing. This idea would sing in social.

South Carolina Tourism

Tourism Campaign

The client needed to put a little twist into their “Discover” campaign. This idea turns the possibility of a negative into a surprising, fun and uplifting positive. Just like what you might find, right when you’re not looking, in South Carolina.
