Leading production and post-production house Optimus today announced that ONE at Optimus has promoted Joe Tipre to producer and Sarah Slevin to associate producer. The promotion of the creative, hardworking pair is well deserved.
“Joe and Sarah have consistently performed at higher levels than expected,” said ONE at Optimus Executive Producer and Managing Director John Noble. “These talented professionals are helping drive the significant growth we’ve seen at ONE at Optimus over the past year. We know we’ll continue to see great things from them, and from ONE.
Joe started at Optimus in 2009, and since then he has contributed not just a solid understanding of all the aspects of our business, but an impressive work ethic, resourcefulness and level of dedication. Joe’s recent client work includes LasikPlus for Fathom, Cuervo for Crispin Porter + Bogusky, AT&T for Rodgers Townsend/DDB St. Louis, Allstate for Leo Burnett, the Museum of Science & Industry for Hoffman York and working directly with Pitchfork to produce original content for the Pitchfork Music Festival.
Since her start at Optimus in late 2007, Sarah courageously took on any challenges that came her way. Her high capacity for hard work and passion for the industry add to her talent and drive that is well beyond her years in the field. The sense of humor and confidence that she exudes make her an all-around wonderful selection for the promotion. Sarah’s recent work includes Tampax and HumanKind videos for Leo Burnett, Museum of Science & Industry for Hoffman York, Suave and CDW for Ogilvy & Mather and Sears-Craftsman for Young & Rubicam.
“I am so passionate about my work at Optimus,” said Tipre. “From the start, I’ve had the opportunity to gain a broad understanding of all aspects of production, and I am committed to working with the team here to exceed client expectations on every project.”
“There aren’t many places that give you the opportunity to gain experience in such a short time in both post-production and production,” commented Slevin. “I feel like I’ve found my home in production at ONE.”
