Case study newbie Hattie here… Back in May I production managed my first job for The Sweet Shop, for producer Justin Edmund White. On beginning the production I was given the signed agreement from Ogilvy, requesting a sustainable production. So great to have the agency on board from the word go! On this particular job, I […]

CASE STUDY: TANTRUM / LEO BURNETT / P&G’S FAIRY
Blog number two – I’m on a roll! After AdGreen success on Rice Krispies, I continued on at Tantrum for another month to PA a three day shoot on location for P&G’s “Heads, Shoulders, Knees & Toes” spot for Fairy. First off, I spoke to our location manager Sarah Butler. She was really happy to use Quantum Waste […]
CASE STUDY: ACNE PRODUCTION / FCB INFERNO / TUC CRISPS
In January, I worked on a TUC commercial for Acne Production. As well as one day at Park Royal Studio, we filmed at the same house location for two of the days, so there were plenty of opportunities to employ the Five Easy Things! On our studio day, it was good to get the measure […]
CASE STUDY: INDEPENDENT FILMS / LEO BURNETT / ARIEL
Back in November I worked on an Ariel’s new ‘Clean Like New’ spot at Independent Films, shooting 1 day at Dukes Island Studios and then 2 days on location. First things first, I taught my producer, Adam Saward, how to sign the PIBS electronically – life changing stuff! All you need to do is convert the document to […]
CASE STUDY: GREAT GUNS / GREY / HERBAL ESSENCES
So you might’ve read a few of these now, and there are some recurring themes you may have noticed. As with my other location jobs last year, we did the usuals working through the checklist – y’know: recycling, Ram Board to protect the floor, water coolers, barely printing anything; but we also did a few other bits […]
CAN A 1ST AD WORK PAPER FREE? YOU BETCHA!
Hi Readers, my name’s Patrick James Stephens, and I’m a 1st Assistant Director working paperlessly across film and TV projects. Jo approached me in the summer after hearing about some of my paperless exploits on Twitter, and asked me to share how I’ve moved to electronic working in what is one of the most paper-based […]
CASE STUDY: PASSION PICTURES / VCCP / COMPARE THE MARKET
Ah Christmas. Already seems like a distant memory! Even longer ago was the shoot I did for Compare the Market’s Christmas campaign, ‘Oleg’s Magical Dream’. Back in September I worked at Passion Pictures, and I was happy to see that green production began early: they created a Squarespace website which was shared with the agency and contained everything you would […]
CASE STUDY: RATTLING STICK / BBH / TESCO CHRISTMAS
So fresh off my Tesco experience, there was a nice familiarity to being back at Rattling Stick a few weeks later to work on the Christmas campaign (in 30 degree heat). This was a 6 day shoot on location so it was never going to be a walk in the park, but I did have a good […]
CASE STUDY: RATTLING STICK / BBH / TESCO SUMMER
Daisy Roberts here! Back at the beginning of the summer I got to road test a few AdGreen ideas on a Tesco shoot for Rattling Stick. Four days on location was a challenge, but we managed to do some great things, including donating our ‘Monkeys’ sign that construction had built, to our location, Dudley Zoo, along with some […]
CASE STUDY: B-REEL FILMS / BROOKLYN BROTHERS / OVO ENERGY
This one’s a location job – finally! This time for Ovo Energy’s campaign (33% renewable as standard don’t ya know), with Jesper Hiro at B-Reel Films. Thankfully we had just one location for our 2 day shoot – unit moves are a pain in the proverbial when it comes to getting everything set up again, including any green measures. Working […]
