Robert Mondavi Private Selection

Agency: Bensimon & Byrne Toronto

One of DuckDuck's unique strengths is the ability to do video and photo at the same shoot — real photos, not just screen grabs from our video cameras. When Bensimon & Byrne needed a TV commercial and photos, they called us. We spent two days shooting at beautiful Fallen Leaf Lake in South Lake Tahoe. The TV commercial was broadcast nationally for 13 weeks and is still being used as pre-roll on Hulu. The photos were used for print and web campaigns in the US and Canada.

Aramark

Our good friends at FCB Chicago asked us to shoot a commercial to coincide with their rebranding of Aramark. We did that, which is the commercial above, then wound up creating six other videos for them over the span of three months. We couldn't have asked for a better crew to spend 1/4 our year with. From Philly to Knoxville, we hustled all over to deliver this campaign and are proud of what we made.

Blue Cross Blue Shield

Agency: mcgarrybowen

We had already heard about YouTube sensation Sam Gordon before mcgarrybowen approached us to film this project. We had worked with Blue Cross Blue Shield before and were excited to kickoff their new Faces of Fearless campaign with this story. We flew to Salt Lake City and filmed Sam in her natural habitat: her home and the football field next to it.
