NEW WORK 🎬: Director Syd Ostrander brought a graceful touch to tell the story of Beautybird, focusing on the quiet, human moments that make this place feel personal. It’s about more than just beauty; it’s about confidence, care, and the way that inner strength can shine through.

Big thanks to the whole team for making something that feels as elegant as it is honest.

New films for the 2025 Corvette Academy, directed by Kurt Andrew Schneider.
Two wild builds. Two dialed-in teams.

First up: an interactive POV deep dive into the new modes and tech, shot on a massive high-pixel LED wall—designed to flex everything the new Vette is capable of.

Then we hit a custom elemental room, all angles and attitude, where our experts broke it all down—from performance to precision.

Big thanks to our wonderful agency and client partners and to our Detroit-based crew, who continue to prove nobody lights a car better.

We’re excited to welcome Syd Ostrander to the Tibbs, Inc. director roster. Syd’s work captures the quiet beauty of everyday life—the kind of moments most people miss if they’re not looking for them. With a sharp visual style shaped by years of on-set experience (starting at just 15), she’s crafted standout work for Atlantic Records, The Late Night Show, and Ford, to name a few.

She’s a thoughtful creative with a grounded perspective and a knack for finding meaning in the subtle details. We’re lucky to have her and excited for what’s ahead. Check out some of Syd’s favorite pieces—links in stories.

Everything is Better Together.

In a world full of reasons to go it alone, we believe in the power of collaboration. Creativity, energy, and impact that come from working together drive us forward.

Film, whether narrative or commercial, thrives on collaboration. It’s how we overcome challenges, create meaningful work, and amplify each other’s strengths. We love our teams and our friends; together, we are better.

Happy holidays from all of us here at Tibbs. As 2024 winds down, we hope you enjoy a safe, joyful break filled with family, friends and a bit of well-deserved relaxation.

This year has certainly had its ups and downs, but we’re taking a moment to reflect on the highlights, learn from the challenges, and look forward to an exciting 2025. To celebrate the season, here are some of our favorite shots from our latest Ford EV Benefits spot, starring the wonderful Jaz Zapp.

Here’s to a restful holiday and a bright year ahead!

Hey there!

This is a special one—call it, our Halloween edition social blast.

I usually keep these posts focused on Tibbs’ commercial production updates. But, this time, I wanted to share something a bit more personal. This project is close to my heart, not only because of the music, but also because so many talented folks from the Detroit and LA communities helped bring it to life.

I’m thrilled to announce the release of Shorthand, a 5-song EP with five accompanying films, crafted over the past three years. As both the songwriter and director of these tracks, I’ve blended music and visuals to explore themes of love, resilience, and happy accidents. Each film uniquely extends the story of its song, making this a true passion project.

Shorthand is now streaming everywhere, and you can watch the films on RonnyTibbsVevo (link in stories). If you find a moment to check them out, I’d love to hear what you think.

Thanks so much for all your support, commercially and otherwise. 

Kindly,
Ryan ‘Tibbs’ Wiese
