She comes to directing from a varied and eclectic background, starting her career as a choreographer where she worked in film, television and commercials. She is most widely known for having choreographed the celebrated music video, Baby Got Back, by Sir Mix A Lot. Her initial foray into directing earned her a trip to Cannes for a commercial entitled, A Boy & His Tire. This spot for Bridgestone Tires which is known for it’s beautiful visuals and subtle yet, emotional performance, received several prestigious nominations including the Young Director Award, as well as a spot in SHOOT Magazine’s New Director’s Showcase.

She also spent many years as a stylist, working in all aspects of the film industry. Some of her celebrity clients included, Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen, Rosario Dawson, Serena Williams, Dwayne Wade and more.

    Barton Landsman

    Noted comedy director Barton Landsman has done spot work for ESPN, Sony, Anheuser Busch, McDonalds, Taco Bell, AT&T, and FedEx, among others, runs the gamut from observational to larger-than-life humor. Regardless of stylistic considerations, Landsman clearly has a knack for shining a light on human eccentricities: a current Avocados From Mexico campaign (Arnold/Boston), for example, depicts a soccer mom whose loyalty to her child comes up against an insatiable passion for avocado wraps. Recent work also includes a Gorilla Glue campaign (Possible/Cincinnati). Landsman has won multiple Cannes Lions and other honors for his accomplishments both as a director and agency creative. He served as Creative Director/Copywriter at BBDO New York and ACD/Copywriter at Kirshenbaum and Bond before stepping behind the camera.

    Landsman began as an agency copywriter in Chicago. Writing and creative-directing jobs eventually took him to San Francisco and New York City. His work was recognized by several national and international award shows and he won multiple Cannes Lions and One Show pencils for his work on Pepsi, Dreyer’s Ice Cream, Frito Lay and more. Landsman next tried his hand at directing. Again, his work garnered national and international awards, including a Gold Lion at Cannes for Nestle “Zoo” (Lowe Strateus/Paris). Indulging his interest in darker comedy, Landsman wrote and directed Banana Bread, a short film about a man whose neurotic mother has no idea how dangerous his job really is. The film screened at more than 50 festivals throughout the country, winning numerous awards.

    “I appreciate comedy built on an element of truth, but sometimes flat-out freaky or strange works nicely too,” said Landsman, who considers Portman Group “Drunken Monkey” (M&C Saatchi/London) an all-time favorite among the spots he’s directed. “I try not to impose one specific sensibility on the work, and let the script guide me.” Of longer-form branded work, such as a client-direct Web film he recently directed for the Reluctant Trading Experiment, Landsman said, “It’s fun to tell stories in 30 or 60 seconds. But if some company wants to do longer pieces like the classic BMW Film stuff, I’ll probably start weeping with joy.”

       

      Jordan Brady

      Jordan Brady began as a stand-up comedian, touring nightclubs and colleges in 49 states across America at age 18. Soon he found his way to California and appeared on every cable stand up comedy show with a brick wall. His first big break came when MTV tapped him to host a game show. Next, he hosted the NBC Saturday Morning series, “Name Your Adventure”, where Jordan found his way behind the camera, adding director and producer to his credits. This led to helming NBC promo shoots and short films for Comedy Central and MTV.

      His latest feature film is “‘I Am Battle Comic” - a powerful documentary that features an inspiring comedy tour for our troops - that will make you laugh and make you think about freedom. Jordan is touring to select Landmark Theaters screening the movie to raise money for MilitaryFamily.org.

      Jordan Brady wrote and directed the cult feature mockumentary, “Dill Scallion”, which critic Roger Ebert anointed the “‘Spinal Tap’ of country music.” Brady followed up with the independent film “The Third Wheel” starring Ben Affleck and a young Melissa McCarthy, and the Miramax redneck rom-com “Waking Up In Reno” with Billy Bob Thornton, Patrick Swayze and an undiscovered Charlize Theron.

      Mr. Brady’s first documentary is “I AM COMIC” (Netflix, Showtime, iTunes) The film explores the art & occupational hazards of being a stand-up comic. It stars Sarah Silverman, Louis C.K., Tim Allen, Jeff Foxworthy, Chris Harwick, Jim Gaffigan and 72 other professional comics.

      The 2014 sequel “I Am Road Comic” (Netflix,Hulu, iTunes) follows Brady to a “hell gig” to chronicles his first time back on stage doing stand-up in 20 years. Interviews include Marc Maron, T.J. Miller, Maria Bamford, Doug Benson, Pete Holmes and Nikki Glaser and more.

      Jordan’s alternate passion is directing commercials. He has directed over 819 national TV spots to date. See http://superlounge.tv/director/jordan-brady/ for his comedy advertisements.

      He also hosts a weekly filmmaking podcast called “Respect The Process” on iTunes and at jordanbrady.com. It has been called the “Rosetta Stone of filmmaking.”

      Fun fact: Brady coined the sexual innuendo “Bow-chicka-bow-WOW!” to refer to porno-film music in his signature comedy bit, which he did on many cable tv comedy shows. Brady used a 1991 Comedy Central clip of himself doing the famed routine in “I Am Road Comic”.

      Jordan lives in Los Angeles with his wife and four kids.
