Fahrenheit Photography - Charlottesville, Richmond, Harrisonburg Hampton Roads Photography: advertising

Something I don't blog about that often is my day job, and honestly, I don't know why because it's a pretty amazing day job if I do say so myself.

I work for an advertising agency located in the heart of the Virginia Beach Oceanfront and we're producing some top-notch work. The project I've specifically been involved with is the Liberty Tax Service - America's Next Lady Liberty campaign. We just released our first batch of videos this week, and there are more to come in the future, so check in later this month for updates.

A special shout out goes out to all the actors who came out for these shoots, as well as the Salon at 31st and YNOT Pizza for graciously allowing us to use their locations.

Here are the spots, written and produced by yours truly:

Last Saturday, my friend Sandy and I had the opportunity to shoot the Hampton Roads ADDY Awards at the Westin Hotel in Town Center. This year's award ceremony was put together by the creative minds of Jon and Jenny, who've spent the past several months preparing for this event. The theme was "Advertising Epidemic," with the premise that a virus was spreading and stripping the advertising community of its creativity. The solution? Getting the creative minds of Hampton Roads together and showcasing this year's ADDY Award entries to fight the virus and get creativity back. Some highlights of the night included a security screening, waiters dressed in scrubs, the containment of an infected, a playdough sculpture contest, and of course... the reception of awards. I hope these photos give you all a taste of all the hard work that was put into this event... kudos to the entire 2009 ADDY Awards volunteer committee! You all put on an amazing event that definitely had people talking.
