    Highlights from our work. 

    Faire's Small World Video Series

    For the holidays in 2023, we had the good fortune to partner with the Faire social team to start a series about the merchants and makers of Faire. In this, the inaugural episode, we meet Guoda from OVO Things Candles in Lithuania and Jen from the Shop Senti in Edina Minnesota. The two have been working together across the globe for over 3 years and never met in person, this is their story. We are working on the 2024 series right now.

    Faire, Building Blocks Series

    For our second series with Faire, we were able to follow along as Max Rhodes, the CEO visits retailers and brands in the Faire eco-system. Unlikely Media functioned as both an in-house producer and a production company bringing together amazing and diverse talent to shoot and edit these great stories.

     

     

    Mill Brand Launch

    In 2022 and 2023 we had the great pleasure of helping a climate focused start up hardware brand launch from zero to live! Victoria was brought on as the only producer on the marketing team and Victoria built out process, systems and vendor teams to execute on a completely integrated launch campaign in just 5 months and it all went live in January 2023. In this sizzle reel we show you the brand launch film, the product renders, and some of the lifestyle photography. This is just the tip of the iceberg of what we produced. We built out a robust asset library , a set of trusted vendors and a system for finding and making assets for a brand that had nothing at the start.

     

    Assets included: Illustration, Lifestyle Photography, Studio and Product Photography, 3D Renders, and of course video.

    Calm: Daily Move

    In 2021 Victoria helped launch and oversee the structure for Calm's first foray into daily video. Calm has now produced over 158 episodes of mindful movement for the app with topics ranging from dealing with stress, gratitude and kids movements.

    Airbnb Plus, Host Stories Series

    After launching Airbnb Plus, Victoria became the lead producer embedded within the Plus product team, developing content and marketing projects just for Plus. From 2018-2020 we created a series focused on the incredible hosts found in the Plus community and shined a light on their talent for hospitality and design.

     

    Using her documentary and television background along with the talent of the creative team we found incredible hosts, and told their stories in a variety of ways.

    2016 Election on Twitter

    During the 2016 election season voters, pundits, candidates and the world turned to Twitter for news. We at Twitter tried to ensure that the conversation kept happening on the platform in a safe and open way. We worked with the live studio team to produce debate teaser videos, debate wrap up videos and this longer form doc-style video created during the first debate from a variety of voices in the political space.

     

     

    Bose Superbowl, Fantracks

    Working with the great people at MAS: Music & Strategy, I was the Supervising Producer on the production side, managing the music team and the video team to make this amazing project came to life. In 5 weeks we had created over 20 videos and 24 original pieces of music. On the video side we worked with Bindery to pull off this great feat.

     

    We collaborated with a stellar team at 360i and really proved out that Bose is about great sound, no matter what genre of music.
