Every once and a while a client or project comes along that makes you realize why you chose your profession in the first place. It happened recently to us when we worked with MSCO, a New York based marketing firm. Together, we developed a quirky, fun jingle to fit their animated TV campaign. Let’s face it, we can all go through periods when we approach our creative in a “factory-like” manner. Sometimes, after writing and producing hundreds of jingles, spots, and voice overs, the left side of the brain wants to just. . . chill. . . and our professional chops take over. And that’s okay. But this project was different. The product was STRUTZ™, “The Human Shock Absorber”, and we got to collaborate with a Creative Director and an Animator (Animotion) who set the bar high and wanted a special end-product. We were allowed to stretch out a bit, and have FUN with it. What a concept! The ideas ended up being fairly simple, but VERY effective. Very cool. Now, back to the F#$!@&! grind. Here’s to many more “STRUTZ™- like,” jingle projects!
