Not Handmade - Trickle Up

We climbed the mountains of Tamahú, Guatemala to meet Trickle Up participants and inspiring weavers Juana, Olivia, and Gregoria, and learned how bright colors, sisterhood, and innovation leads to profit and an inspiring path ahead.

This is the launch spot for the organization’s 40th anniversary “We Go Further” campaign, developed and produced by BODEGA, and currently airing in the NYC region.

Support them! Let’s Go Further!

This scarf is not made by hand. It's made by ambition, on a machine, bought with savings, that was earned with profit. It's made by going further.

Trading WAV Sound System

Senior Engineer, Ted Gannon, recently collaborated on an album alongside producer Max Tannone, and other musicians/producers. The album was released at midnight last night, and all proceeds will be donated to the Food Bank For New York City. Listen to it here: https://tradingwav.surf

Ted says “My job title in the Sound System (as it says on my official uniform) is “Official Selecter Ted”, and it’s an honor to hold that position. There is probably no other period or genre of music that has inspired me like 80s Reggae, especially as it was experienced in New York City. The diverse group of artists on this project all feel the same way, and I was more than honored to be a part of it. I’m really proud to have helped create sort of a contemporary mutation of the music I love, not a retro, oldies re-hash.” #nmbs

Coffee is Contraband in This Cop Dramedy Parody for 1850 | LBBOnline

Very proud to have been a part of this creative campaign for The J.M. Smucker Company's 1850Coffee, sound designed and mixed by Jody Nazzaro for our friends at Publicis Worldwide, North America PSOne. “Since its launch in 2018, 1850 Coffee’s loyal fans have been praising its bold and balanced flavour, saying it’s so delicious 'you don’t even need to add milk'. Creatively, that translated into a wonderfully outrageous story arc: the best brew on the Black Market, coffee quality so high, so pure, it’s questionable if a coffee this good is even legal."
