NEW WORK. We were so thrilled to work again with the marketing folks over at Synovus - this time to tell the story of their wealth management arm, The Family Office at Synovus. Shooting some of their clients and on site in Columbus, Georgia was especially gratifying.

NEW WORK. Blown away by stories and messages from Marine veterans who have spent years - and in some cases, decades - serving our country. We were honored to be a part of this project and hope that those watching this video (one of several in the series) can find encouragement in its universal themes!

Our Junior Editor @andrew_mcbride_atl is giving Eileen a run for her money in the monitor department at his home office. He’s enjoying listening to his podcasts and salsa music as loudly as he wants and keeping good company with Nikko the cat.
Our client services rep @pwualaa has been enjoying her work al fresco with plenty of cuddles from @peachessaxon the pug. Does anyone feel like their new co-workers don’t know the meaning of personal space? #MHCWFH
Anyone else starting to feel like this work from home thing isn’t half bad? Our Copywriter and Production Coordinator @phyllisgjackson can be found every day nestled up in her cozy corner office with all the French press coffee she can drink (which is a lot). #MHCWFH
Who needs one laptop when you could have three?! Our VP @emcfish is really getting into the groove of working from home. She’s loving her new co-workers (Her 13-year old daughter is the perfect desk clump mate) and two outside work spaces that allow her to follow the sun throughout the day. What do you love about working from home? #MHCWFH
Our snuggly new team member has us all cheesin’ on this dreary Monday. Welcome Cozette ( aka Cozie)!

"I totally was torturing him, I just hadn't found the right song."
Peaches was called in for backup at the front desk this morning. Nothing brightens up a gloomy day quite like being greeted by a face like this.

Not only is @pce_atlanta our first call for equipment and stage rentals, they also throw a killer party!
Owner/Director/Editor Jonathan Hayes has always had a knack for finding just the right song for each spot. We love that he unearthed a new talent by choosing high school senior Ibrahima Bano Bah's version of "Pure Imagination" for the CNN Apollo 11 promos he cut earlier this year! https://www.orangeville.com/community-story/9445922-cnn-selects-orangeville-student-s-musical-score-for-apollo-11-moon-landing-documentary-trailer/
We're pretty excited about fall, but not nearly as excited as these people... What says "fall has arrived" to you? Football, foliage, or falling temperatures?
We’re still reeling from a productive week in the studio.

We're all gushing over our owner and DP's latest Narrative and Commercial reel! http://www.mishamazordp.com/
Atlanta-based director of photography specializing in commercial, corporate and narrative cinematography. Turnkey production and post infrastructure.
We love bringing concepts to life with our friends at BrightHouse, A BCG Company, and this purpose film for Kimball International was no exception. It's even got us inspired! https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=1&v=tP_SmAOvB-g
Happy birthday to the man behind the camera! We had a great time celebrating owner and DP Misha Mazor today!
It’s our first year celebrating Paula’s birthday, and nothing says “Happy Birthday” quite like @revolutiondoughnuts
A good working relationship between Director and DP is key to a smoothly running set. Luckily we’ve got the dream team.
Adorable talent ✅ World’s best crew ✅
Nothing cures the post-holiday Monday funk like a visit from @mosbypanda
Happy birthday to the glue that holds Mad Hat Creative together, Eileen! And thanks to our friends at @soundbyteinc for sending her these beautiful birthday flowers!
Our fearless leader Jonathan suiting up for a serious location scout!
When the boss-man goes to @harrypotteruniversalstudios and remembers to bring treats back for everyone. #happymonday

“Cinematography is infinite in its possibilities... much more so than music or language.” - Conrad Hall 📷: Andrew McBride
Earlier this year Delta Air Lines and Coca-Cola teamed up to reward middle seat passengers with an exclusive lounge experience at Boston Logan International Airport. We were tasked with documenting the fun by Fitzgerald & Co, so we flew up to Boston, and with an action-packed shoot, strategic crew and equipment, a couple of social media influencers, and precise editing and sound design, this video came together and proved that the middle seat might actually be the best seat in the house. #madatl Director: Sean Brown; DP: Misha Mazor
We were thrilled to learn that this video J. Walter Thompson Atlanta selected us to produce for Georgia Commute Options received a Platinum MarCom Award in the Government Video category. MarCom is the leader in recognizing excellence in the distillation of ideas, messages, and media by marketing and communication professionals. When asked about the cinematography and editing style of this video, Director/Editor Jonathan Hayes said, "The stylistic challenge was to make slow and mundane morning traffic look visually interesting and fast-paced. We really liked the messaging. We wanted viewers to consider their own routines and search for ways they can change them for the better." #madatl
It’s go time! #madatl 📽
It's never too late to start again. And this hardcore athlete shows it. Check out this docu-style piece we did with Foot Locker of Matt's journey to overcome alcoholism using running. Last year he ran the New York City Marathon to raise money for addiction treatment. “I run because I can just push myself... I can just keep going. If I can keep going out there, I can keep going in my life.” #madatl Director: Sean Brown // DP: Misha Maxor
