Spec Bank, an online resource for commercial directors, will be hosting a new event called “On The Spot” – a speed dating-style event that will connect new directors with key members of top production companies and ad agencies for one-on-one reel review sessions.
Scheduled for April 24 in Los Angeles, 15 selected directors will get seven minutes to present three commercials to an industry insider, receive input, and then move on.
Guest reviewers include RSA Films, Partizan, Smuggler, B-Reel, DNA, Sherpa Pictures, General Editorial, City Films, Hoax Films, Superlounge, Ellen Knable & Associates, SpotLab’s Jeff Nicosia and ad agencies Deutsch and Saatchi & Saatchi.
“Breaking into commercial directing is one of the most difficult, time consuming and, let’s face it, expensive, goals in any field,” said Dan Sorgen, creator of Spec Bank. “Our On The Spot event will provide directors with a rare opportunity to meet important decision-makers and receive personalized advice that can really help jumpstart their careers.”
