Vols Football x Pilot Co.
Great work has always been a team sport. When Pilot asked me to bring this story to life across both stills and motion, it meant building a crew with the right people in every seat. I brought together my most trusted collaborators across directing, cinematography, lighting, sound and post—people who are exceptional at what they do and who I know can deliver at this level. The result was a fully integrated production that gave Pilot a high-end commercial alongside a complete stills campaign, all built from the same creative vision.
My role isn't to pretend I can do every job on set. It's knowing the people who can, bringing them together, and making sure the whole thing feels like one piece of work.
social sting for hype going into the Tennessee vs Texas college football game. used existing footage from our broadcast spot. concept came together in a day via text messaging. loved how this turned out.
