Southwest Ag has been the premier source for agricultural tractors and equipment for the four corners region and beyond for over thirty years. I had the pleasure of working with their marketing man Trever Gearhart of Gray Gear Graphics to put together a new thirty second television spot. Everyone knows about the Orange Kubota tractors and other heavy equipment that people see as they pass by their huge lot along Highway 160 in Bayfield, so the purpose of this spot was to give a little love to the inside of the shop as well, including the wide selection of outdoor power tools, the parts and service departments, as well as a large heavy equipment rental inventory. In addition, the company recently purchased a trailer company, which means you can now buy both the tractor, and the trailer you need to haul it, all at the same place.
Piñon Hills Church has endeavored to offer extensive children’s education services from daycare through preschool at its Promiseland Child Development Center, and kindergarten through 3rd grade at it’s Piñon Hills Academy. The church has ambitions to grow the program and provide education through higher grade levels, and so I collaborated with the marketing team to produce testimonial videos that will help build enrollment. Parents had no shortage of amazing comments about the program, and plenty of positive observations about how their children have been impacted by the dedicated staff of teachers and their special attention to individual students and their specific needs and learning styles.
I’ve been working with the marketing department at Durango Motor Company to think outside the box when it comes to producing this year’s television commercials. The most recent spot features a 2016 Kia Sorento during a girls “glamping” and SUP Boarding trip to Haviland Lake, north of Durango, Colorado. This commercial involved a few more logistics than normal, including applying for a Forest Service permit in the Columbine Ranger District, rigging a homemade canopy and procuring all the props necessary for a successful glamping trip, and finally snagging a camping spot for filming at the highly popular Haviland Lake campground.
I worked with Por Vida Tattoo in New Mexico, to take existing footage of a previous event to create a regional television campaign promoting their sixth annual New Mexico Tattoo Fiesta in Albuquerque. With a goal of greatly increasing attendance of this year’s event, they have undertaken an ambitious advertising strategy on cable televisions, Direct TV and DISH, with spots on the largest networks in the country A&E, Discovery, ESPN, FX, History, MTV, TNT, USA. Our goal was to create a high energy commercial, using a professional voice over artist, and attention grabbing motion graphics. Footage credit goes to Michael Harrison of www.whoisharrison.com.
