Army Reserve Success Stories Videos
Role: Concept, Scriptwriting & Direction
Many snicker when I claim the Army as a fun account. Sure, being the CD for all the digital work on a $200 million account has its daunting moments. Yet, if you pitched a novel way to make the Army shine as a strong career choice, they were a willing and enthusiastic partner.

Army Cadence Remixer
Role: Concept, Copy, Direction & Sound Editing
Since the Revolutionary War, the Army has employed cadences to motivate and inspire Soldiers, as well as keep their steps in time when marching. We took this cherished tradition and made a Facebook app that featured mash-up capabilities so users can create their own cadences with their keyboard then share with friends.

Website
Role: Concept, Copy & Direction
For more than five years the Army didn’t change their website. We pitched them four main changes: update the design, put social media capabilities on every page and code in HTML so it could be viewed via mobile or tablet. The response was so great, GoArmy.com was mentioned in the NY Times.
