It’s spring time, but we are excited to show off a couple of our winter 2014 ads we shot for Cramer Krasselt and their client Ski-Doo. Big thanks to everyone involved with this project from start to finish. A lot of hard work and fun went into this campaign for Ski-Doo this winter. Stay tuned for more great imagery on the website.
Wanted to share one of the 4 ads for the towers….. check out all the campaign ads on my project page…..You wouldn’t know the wind was honking, it was grey, raining, and our talent was freezing! Ahhhhh… post magic!
One of the perks of being in this business is establishing great connections and friendships all over the globe.
As a result, I have stayed in touch with The Weeks, a young southern rock-n-roll band from Mississippi, a motley crew that I hired to play at my 40th b-day bash two years ago. Although they were just laying tracks then, they have since exploded and have been invited to open for the Kings of Leon throughout their European tour this summer.
They recently stayed with me for a few days while they were touring the US. We had a blast catching up, goofed around, had an impromptu late night jam session at a friend’s house, and hosted a pre-funk rib-off before they played a local sold-out show.
I hit the ground running when I landed at the Moontown airport on assignment for Garden & Gun. Huge thanks to Randy Burns, owner of the planes, for letting me spend two full days with him. Being a cardiologist he is in high demand and the stars were aligned to make this shoot happen last minute. Appreciate his time as well as all the effort his wife (and great photographer might I add) Dolores put into organizing schedules, planes and locations. Also a shout out to my DP Jac for shooting great footage to go along with the article.
Always stoked when I get a call from my friends at G&G, they always push my creative boundaries, which I love. I ended up on this shoot with great imagery, met amazing people along way, and got to fly around in a few WW II planes, pretty cool.
Stay tuned for the spread.
I always love seeing the copy and layout officially come together. Thought I’d share one of the 5 ads we shot for e-Swisher in December. To see all ads check out my project page…
While we were shooting, because of time constraints our retoucher on set created mock ups of the ads with the layout/copy/and color. The client and agency were stoked to see their ads on set and it made for a quick seamless turnaround! SWEET!
Always fun to shoot in your backyard, especially when you get the first turns on Baldy at sunrise, a real treat. SKI Magazine called to do a shoot for their Go.(WHERE TO GO. WHY GO. WHAT TO DO) section on Sun Valley, which will appear in the magazine this winter. Great models, good snow, fun couple of days on the hill.
We had a fantastic 3 day shoot in Bellevue, Washington with the agency Green Rubino and their client Bellevue Towers. Our cast of crew, client, agency and talent made for a seamless production. The weather caused us to dance a bit but as always my producer and retoucher worked their magic!
My music video of The London Souls has been selected to be in The Sun Valley Film Festival this year! Stay tune this spring when the London Souls launch the video, we’ll officially get it on the site.
Here are a couple fantastic ads from our friends at Wyoming Whiskey… Apparently the launch was successful- they sold out completely in only 4 minutes! Congratulations to the WW crew! (To see the rest of the ad campaign, check out my project page)
Looking forward to their participation in the Sun Valley Film Festival!
We are mourning the loss of a great man.
Working closely with Tabasco and the McIlhenny family over the last couple of years, we have been fortunate enough to get to know the visionary and virtuous leader, Paul McIlhenny. He was generous, wickedly sharp, had a playful sense of humor and fierce dedication to not only his family heritage but to New Orleans and the state of Louisiana.
Our condolences to the family. We will remember him fondly.
Team Kiel
