The Naked Campaign
The Web and TV are wide open for illustration. I think it’s a matter of time till we make this connection. Here’s my first attempt.
For the 2008 Election filmmaker Gail Levin and I did a series of short films called The Naked Campaign for The New Yorker.com. Below is one: “Clash of the Titans”.
You can see the rest by clicking here: New Yorker Magazine homepage.
You can also see all 28 Episodes at YouTube.com
The Naked Campaign, one of the most amazing collaborative experiences of my life, evolved out of a 2004 project with Gail Levin (7 time Emmy winning director) and myself . . . and the belief and dedication of David Remnick, Pam McCarthy, Chris Curry, Blake Eskind at The New Yorker. It spanned the 2008 Campaign and ran to 28 short films (The entire collection now available on DVD, ahem). They would not have been possible without the extremely gifted Asterisk Studio (Richard O'Connor & Brian O'Connell) and Ben Shapiro, cinematographer). My deepest thanks to them all.
