Rob Groenwold lends Chrysler a little magic


So, why is Chrysler shooting a multi-million dollar package at a time like this? We're not sure, and we don't really care. All we know is that they chose Rob Groenwold and Boxer to do it, and that it makes us happy.

These expansive cinematic spots intend to show that what Chrysler builds are more than just cars...and also serve to remind why Rob was chosen best new director of 2007 by Boards.

Check some of the new work, and Rob's reel here.

Best in show!!!


We're happy to share that Washington Lottery "Birds", one of our favorite spots EVER, has graduated from the regional awards circuit (where it won gold in two different shows) to take best in show at the National Addy's!


Congrats to Jerry Brown and everyone at Sticks + Stones!!!

Saarinen Gets Humble, Humble Gets Bitsack


Saarinen (that's us!) is proud to announce our rather-newly-formed relationship with NYC production company Humble. This is a an exciting, nimble company, with a special flair for interactive and viral work, as well as offering turn-key solutions for traditional live action. With a brilliant team of producers and a roster including star creative directors, animation and multi-disciplinary directors, they're in a unique position to do pretty much anything, and make it awesome. But please, don't take my word for it.

Saarinen is announcing Humble, and Humble is in turn announcing the addition of Jeff Bitsack to their roster. Jeff comes from JWT NY where he served as an award-winning Creative Director on accounts such as Dominoes, Swedish Fish and Stride gum.
