The past two weeks have found me sifting through mountains of political ads and movie Western clips to try and find some semblance of a common thread. This week is the American Association of Political Consultants Pollie Awards fiesta. The Pollies award good campaigns and RedEye has been charged with showcasing the video spots in […]
Hello all! And to residents of Alaska, Georgia, Idaho, Massachusetts, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Vermont, and Virginia – happy Super Tuesday! Residents of those states can be sure to see plenty of ads today telling them why one candidate is better than another or why one candidate is just a downright threat to liberty […]
I’m not quite an old soul [read: hipster], but I was raised with an appreciation of what you might call grand old things [read: pretentious things]. I enjoy going to the opera and I will take Humphrey Bogart over Brad Pitt any day. I get defensive when older people assume that my generation gets bored […]
After three weeks of working at RedEye, I can declare firmly and proudly that it is fun and exuberant place to work. Clients drop by to drop something off and end up sticking around for half an hour to chat. The RedEye offices are a magnet of good feeling and creative energy. That said, its […]

Hello! Its fitting that today I publish my first blog post, because on this day 22 years ago, McDonald’s opened their first restaurant in Moscow. Why is this fitting? Well a Russian McDonald’s and I have a lot in common in that we are both… Wait. Russian McDonald’s and I have nothing in common. But! 54 […]
While doing some serious facebook stalking, I came across a bit of news from one of RedEye’s former Interns, Nicholas Bernardo. He talked a bit about his time working for RedEye and living in DC. Nicholas Bernardo, a senior English major, spent last spring semester writing scripts, editing videos, crafting press releases and sharpening […]
“Excuse me. You’re going to die in there.” The opening takes you by shear surprise as an abrupt truth pours into the air. That in fact, anyone who enters this house is going to die. The writers, Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk, of American Horror Story waste no time to throw you in the ill […]
