THE FEATURED ARTISTS IN THIS EDITION

Justin Bastien, Director, Photographer-

From Linkedin

Justin writes:

“Behind the scenes from our Chevy Colorado ‘Big Life’ commercial for the launch of Major League Baseball season. It’s incredible to see what goes in to making a big commercial. It may seem like a lot of people on set, but every single person is critical to the success of the shoot. Thanks to the whole crew for crushing it on this one and going the extra mile in the rain and mud day after day to make it happen.”

Justin Bastien takes us on a road trip with his broadcast Chevy “Big Life” campaign. Shot over 5 days, with a crew of over 100, over 12 locations, large builds, and extensive running footage, the schedule for this sunny summer spot coincided with California's largest rain storm in decades, adding a level of challenge Justin hadn’t encountered before. His team pivoted to a highly flexible approach, making adjustments quickly and efficiently to solve a myriad of problems along the way and bring the "summer" to the Big Life Chevy Colorado story. Bet you can’t tell. Full of life and heartwarming moments, this successful campaign goes the distance!
