I’m Andy Kelemen, a branded content + commercial director with a specialty in making unusual work. I describe my style as playful and approachable, and I love over-the-top visuals with bold looks. I got my start filming behind the scenes content for Troma Entertainment with Lloyd Kaufman, after which I spent five years at one of the largest political ad agencies in the country, producing and directing national campaigns. I then went full-time as a director, starting a production company in the process. My work has been aired nationally, created millions of social media impressions, and I’ve picked up seven Emmy awards along the way for my documentary work for PBS. In directing content, I’m proud of the work I create, and my ability push the envelope (and push clients) when needed. While it’s tough to brag about personality traits, I’m consistently described as being easy to work with, and a fantastic collaborator. And let’s be honest, when you work on a commercial project - you spend a ton of time together.

Video storytelling within a marketing context is that sweet spot where story is so much more than art – it’s a form of compassion and empathy. Story is what moves people to action, whether it’s to bring people to your website, motivate a donation or sale, or help your customer fall in love with your brand. The stories I want to tell are stories that serve a purpose – that understand the heart of your target audience. What is it that leads your audience to believe in your product or mission? What do they care about? What motivates someone very different than me? It’s story that brings a brand to life. ​ I’ve worked with a wide array of brands, organizations, and artists to bring their purpose and mission to life. To do this well, it’s important to start with parameters – an understanding of the target audience. My favorite projects let me spend some time with the people served by your product/content so that I can tell the story through their eyes. I love working with research and creative teams. Give me parameters or a goal. I can take that and run with it on my own – or we can sit down and plan things together.
