Positioning a series for the Lifetime audience would be a challenge with a show half as dark as Nip/Tuck. We were only able to achieve the right tone by keeping things light and funny. Fortunately, we found a sardonic soundbite by guest star Joan Rivers to kick off the :60 spot nicely.

Spring was hired by Warner Bros. to produce the station promo package for the original Ace Ventura: Pet Detective. We provided :30, :20, :15, and :10 second spots.

This is one of those promos we wish could have been a two-minute trailer, there was so much funny. A great start by Jim Carrey to a spectacular career.

Spring was contracted by Mirage Productions to do the finishing and color correction of the behind-the-scenes materials for Sony’s long-anticipated release of the season 1 DVD of The Larry Sanders Show.

Guest interviews included Jerry Seinfeld, Tom Petty, Alec Baldwin, David Duchovny, and Sharon Stone, among others.

Each member of the cast was interviewed, and the DVD also contains an hour-plus documentary containing anecdotes, outtakes, and audition tapes of the original cast members. It was great fun, and Garry Shandling even poked his head into the edit bay for a few minutes. The folks at Mirage are fantastic to work with, and it was a privilege to help them finish this project.

Spring and Editropolis helped ID Public Relations launch the Starbucks Book Break with Mitch Albom. We put together clips from the Ellen DeGeneres show, along with an intro by Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz.

Drew Barrymore and Luke Wilson starred in this wacky dark comedy about finding love in a dysfunctional family. Spring produced the station promo package for Warner Bros. with a :30, :20, :15, and :10

Nip/Tuck Sales Presentations

Packing 3 seasons of one of the most spectacular shows to appear on television into 4 minutes wasn’t easy. It took us about 6 weeks altogether. But we did it, producing two versions, a male and female sell. There was so much great material, it was really tough to whittle it down to 4 minutes. Talk about an editor’s dilemma, every shot that was used had at least 5 other great shots backing it up. A real embarassment of eye candy. We especially loved the spectacular aerials of Miami.

Leigh Gregory of Bright Tomorrow wrote and produced, Sean Prophet and Joseph Conarkov cut, Gordon Hookailo of GDH Digital mixed the Female Sell, and Patrick Flynn mixed the Male Sell. Albert Romero of ART provided graphics.

Client was Warner Bros. Worldwide Television Distribution.
