No such thing as a free lunch…

No such thing as a free lunch...

At least where Chicago Public Radio is concerned! CPR hired us to write/direct/shoot/produce/art direct/cast/envision/market/edit/set build and deliver these shorts showing people the failures of getting something for free…

WBEZ 20: Steve Edwards jumps in the lake for us

This is another video in a series of public radio commercials. It features Kate and WBEZ host Steve Edwards. He’s funny.


From the WBEZ News Desk.

You could give $20.

PBR Tour: Even in Blackouts

Saturday night will mark the first time since 2003 that we were able to actually book Even in Blackouts.
