Design in Motion BIGSMACKtv Busts Doors Open On New Promo Boutique Industry veterans, Head of Production, Miles Dinsmoor, Head of Creative, Andy Hann, and Head of Business Development, Bob Lowery, have launched, BIGSMACKtv,
a new creative design/production boutique specializing in the creation of broadcast promos, motion graphics, and entertainment branding. Dinsmoor and Hann have been responsible for design and promo work for television networks such as, CBS, ESPN, Discovery Channel, Travel Channel, as well as many others.
When asked why he started BIGSMACKtv Hann said, “The market place is changing and companies are having to try new things and ideas. Agencies have historically had a tough time servicing the broadcast industry because broadcast has very specific needs. You’re selling an experience, not a product – an experience that’s constantly evolving, minute by minute. With our many years of experience on both the client side and the vendor side, we know what it takes to make effective promotional campaigns.” About Big Smack Launched June 1, 2007 and based in Philadelphia, PA, BIGSMACKtv is to promo what hot-sauce is to chili – that little bit of spice that makes all the difference. This new boutique-style studio focuses on delivering promotion campaigns in innovative ways for traditional clients in the network and cable television field. BIGSMACKtv can be reached at www.bigsmack.tv About Miles Dinsmoor Prior to launching BIGSMACKtv, Miles launched Concrete Pictures where he oversaw all production and led a strong production and executive production team, growing the company seven-fold over the course of his five year tenure, making inroads with high-profile broadcast and cable industry clients like Discovery Communications, DIRECTV, ESPN, Comcast, HBO and USA Network. Dinsmoor began his career at Warner Bros. Television where he managed post-production assets on a variety of series, including the launch of both Friends and E.R. Later, he brought his talents to branding powerhouse Pittard Sullivan and Click 3X. About Andy Hann BIGSMACKtv’s creative focus is driven by Andy Hann, head creative, who just vacated the position at Concrete Pictures. Hann is a recent transplant to the East Coast, having grown up in the broadcast industry as a creative director with such L.A.-based luminaries as Pittard/Sullivan and V12 Studios. Hann’s most recent work includes a promo campaign for CBS Sports, NFL Today, a campaign for March Madness that aired during last year’s Super Bowl on CBS, and a just completed promo series for ESPN’s X-Games. He has worked with virtually every network and cable channel at one time or another, and has been asked to solve as many different marketing challenges as there are trucker caps at a Nascar rally. About Bob Lowery As a founding member of BIGSMACKtv, Bob Lowery brings more than 12 years of business development experience to the team. As head of business development, Bob’s in charge of managing existing clients consisting of broadcast and cable networks, advertising agencies and multi-system operators (MSOs), as well as developing and seeking out new relationships. With his history in the music biz, it’s a role he’s especially good at. Bob makes sure we’re all reading off the same sheet of music. He loves a good harmony.
