At Cass productions, we’ve produced a wide range of projects. Commercials, music videos, print ads, films, books, documentaries, live events, and even a couple of records. The company was launched thirteen years ago to service the advertising needs of a major hair products conglomerate that includes the American Crew, Mop, and D:fi brands. This longstanding relationship enabled the company to expand its efforts into the non-profit sector and challenge itself with a range of cross-media projects. In 2002 we worked with the Beastie Boys to create a photo book in tandem with their benefit concert at the Hammerstein Ballroom, the proceeds of which went to their 9/11 fund. We went on to produce a similar effort for the Dalai Lama and the Tibetan refugee camps. When legendary blues artist Junior Kimbrough passed away, we worked with Fat Possum records and a group of recording artists to create a portrait book and accompanying music CD which helped to established a fund in his name. These projects have informed our day to day work in the more traditional forms of advertising media (print ads and commercials), and positioned us to be able to offer clients a wide range of services and ideas in the changing media landscape.
In 2008 we partnered with a talented roster of directors, photographers, designers and animators. As a team, we see each project as an opportunity to combine our expertise and fascination with all forms of media. We have produced commercials, print advertising, music videos, documentaries, shorter length films, design and animation. Our client list includes Nike, Sony, Atlantic Records, EMI, Coca Cola, Tylenol, AT&T, AOL, Direct TV, Colgate, Revlon, Mac Cosmetics, Estee Lauder, Blue Cross, MTV, Fuse, GQ Magazine, Vogue, Rolling Stone, Spin, and Nintendo.
For our charity portrait books we have photographed:The Dalai Lama, Jack Nicholson, Adrien Brody, Harry Dean Stanton, Benicio Del Toro, Michale Wincott, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Jim Carroll, Val Kilmer, Anne Heche, Steve Buscemi, Pete Yorn, Jason Schwartzman, Jerry Stiller, Milla Jovovich, Ray Charles, James Brown, Saul Williams, The Donnas, White Stripes, The Hives, Ryan Adams, Tenacious D, Busta Rhymes, Solomon Burke, Yoko Ono, Tom Waits, Alanis Morrissett, Maroon 5, Macy Gray, Jack Black, Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, Dita Von Teese, Jena Malone, Heather Graham, Gary Oldman, Jared Letto, Liz Phair, Zooey Deschanel, Chuck D, Kate Bosworth, Vincent Gallo, and Iggy Pop.
We specialize in commercials, music videos, and print ads and can create content for any type of media. If you want to expand your corporate efforts to include a non-profit media venture, we can help join you in that effort. The bottom line is we like to work, and like to work together even more.
