Aussie director Jesse James McElroy shoots new TVC for US streaming service Philo via Red Antler

Australian-based production company The Producers and its US-based partners Honor Society have added a fresh chapter to their creative collaboration with a new spot for US streaming service Philo.

Directed by Sydney-based Jesse James McElroy who collaborated with The Producers and Honor Society with agency Red Antler, the spot was shot in Mexico. The campaign features a dynamic and colourful combination of puppetry, animatronics and costume-clad actors. Each scene demanded carefully crafted production design and art direction and boasts an array of conceptual characters finding joy in their favourite Philo shows.
