It’s a bold move shooting a comedy short film to launch a wine brand. (Who does that?)
We feel extremely lucky to collaborate with clients who are into taking a risk, trying new things and thinking out of the, er, wine barrel.
Like blending 53% Syrah, 37% Mourvedre and 10% Grenache…oh, and multiple vintages. Then calling it “Troublemaker.” (Who does that?)
We worked with Joel Peterson and Whitney Hrdlicka from Hope Family Wines on the script and our actors are the fearless staff who actually spend their time making and selling wine. Special thanks to Joel and Whitney for great ideas, Austin Hope for saying yes, Ron Arredondo and Mike Jarzabek who brought light and sound magic up from LA, and our local amazing shooter, Robin Chilton of Peregrine Media Group. And of course, our own Steve and Drew. Thank you all for an amazing shoot.
Here is a peek at the “behind the scenes” from that day.

We sure like them a lot.
Oh, and as for the wine, “Troublemaker,” it’s good. Go look for some.
