Jim Beam and the Bold Choice Movement
Willem Dafoe. Whiskey. Advertising. And damn good story-telling. ALL things I love.
A well-executed branded entertainment piece, and a good reminder that we should all make bold choices… and drink Jim Beam. Cheers to that!
Grateful.
I love where I work. I love making beautiful things. And I love telling stories. Mad love for emota.
My latest production: The Fanny Bladers - Pacific Beach’s most legit rollerblading gang! We shred the boardwalk, rollerrave with music blasting out of our Fanny Packs, and live by the motto, “Blade or Die.” We give out free high-fives and smiles, and bring happiness to the locals and tourists on the Pacific Beach Boardwalk.
The Fanny Bladers are:
Annie - green
Samantha - pink
Kaylin - blue
Sara - yellow
We are looking to expand our rollerblading gang and become the next boardwalk/internet sensation. Inquire within.
