The Jack LaLanne show reached far and wide

Jack Lalanne had a show in the ’50s on KGO called… “The Jack LaLanne Show” touting fitness, exercise, and nutrition.  Little George Lang, then 9 years old, wrote a fan letter to Jack, and got one back.  He’s preserved it all these years and it really is a treasure to behold:

Years later as George Lang himself worked at KGO, he was able to meet Jack LaLanne in person for the shot below.  Jack LaLanne was a good man with a strong and healthy message, and he will be missed.

Marketing video with local flavor and creative character

Check out our spin on creating a marketing video for our client that not only explains the product and the process, but shows how a small business would actually use it, with a dose of humor and entertainment! There are many ways to explain the 1, 2, 3 of what a product does and we enjoy the opportunity to get creative and present that in an engaging and different way.  We created, “Frank the Entrepreneur” to tell us how he markets his scrumptious dogs.

We shot this at the Rosamunde sausage grill in San Francisco – yum!
