Dano Johnson and I recently completed two ads for Democratic Texas Gubernatorial candidate Bill White and I’m currently finishing the first episode of the American Widow Project web-series. I’ve  just started work on a PSA for Voices of a Grateful Nation, a music video for Michael Des Barres (above), and editing on Charles Wiedman’s The Sinner.

I’ll be posting more information about all of these projects soon…

Collection Agency Films’ The Bright Knight just took home a Gold Pollie Award for Best Web Video. The spot was written by Dano Johnson and myself from a concept by Bill Hillsman, it was produced by Collection Agency Films and Northwoods Advertising. For more information on Collection Agency check out their recently re-vamped website. Also a list of all this year’s Pollie winners can be found here.

A screen grab from Collection Agency Film’s ad for Charles Wheelan (which was written by Dano Johnson and myself, from an idea by Bill Hillsman) was recently used as the photo for the Huffington Post’s story on “The Craziest Political Campaign Ads from Across America,” which we take as a compliment. You can watch the ad, along with some others (which I would argue might be crazier) at Collection Agency’s website.

That article also talks about Year at Danger (calling it “immensely powerful”), Collection Agency Films, and the music video for Zombie a Go Go.

The issue is on stands now or you can read the article at The Austin Chronicle’s website.

Collection Agency Films was commissioned by the Secular Student Alliance to write and produce a funny and informative video about their organization… So here it is.

I just found out The Insur-Animals: Episode 1 won two Pollie Awards (which recognize “the best in political and public affairs communications”). The video took home a silver for “Best Use of Web Video” and a bronze for “Best Use of Humor.”

The final three episodes of Insur-Animals were finished in 2008 but only appeared online last week. Fortunately (sort of) the health care debate continues and these cartoon are still relevant. Insur-Animals were produced by Collection Agency Films. Check out Episode 4 above or follow these links to see Episodes 1, 2, 3, and 4.

The first episode of The Insur-Animals is featured on this week’s Channel Frederator Podcast. You can read more about their latest podcast on the Channel Frederator blog, and check out their interview with Dano Johnson about the “worst animal-headed superheroes.”

The Bright Knight is the new ad from Collection Agency Films and Northwoods Advertising. Watch the ad in high quality here.The ad premiered on Sunday and has already been featured on Politco.
