    STIHL - Made for America

    STIHL - Made for America campaign

    This made for America campaign was filmed locally in Southern Illinois and out west in California, working with the real people and following some of the bravest out there. We love getting to tell these stories of some hard working individuals.

    STIHL - THE PURSUIT

    STIHL “The Pursuit”

    In our eyes, STIHL has always been the industry standard for cutting tools. So, when we heard they were launching a line of zero-turn mowers we were excited, when we were asked to produce and direct their launch campaign we were honored. The team from Red Letter Communications put together a great story showing that even though they may not be using the same model, the pros and home-owners alike that use the STIHL RZ zero-turn mowers are in the same pursuit, the pursuit of the perfect cut.
