    By SHOOTUpdated:No Comments807 Views

    Click 3X has added the directing duo of Cary Murnion and Jonathan Milott, a.k.a. Cary & Jon. Previously Murnion and Milott worked under the Honest moniker and were most recently with production house Savage for commercials.

    Cary & Jon just wrapped their first project with Click 3X, a three-spot package for Ford Fusion out of Team Detroit set to launch this week.

    Murnion and Milott have written, produced and directed films such as “Satellite Car Chase,” “Falling Man,” “The Shortest Race,” and “Boob.” Their directorial feature film debut, “Cooties,” premiered at the 2014 Sundance Film Festival and was acquired by Lionsgate Films for domestic distribution and Universal Studios for international release this summer. “Cooties,” which stars Elijah Wood, Rainn Wilson and Jack McBrayer, is a hybrid comedy/horror/sci-fi picture, demonstrating Cary & Jon’s penchant for combining genres.

    “Cary & Jon’s quirky comedy, strong visuals and unique approach to storytelling make them a standout talent,” said Megan Kelly, executive producer, managing director, Click 3X Live Action.

    Cary & Jon first met in New York at Parsons The New School For Design and have been working together for over 10 years. Their collaboration began with animations, but quickly evolved into other creative endeavors, including art installations, music videos, commercials and short films, and eventually the pair turned their focus to writing, producing and directing.

    Cary & Jon’s work has been recognized with multiple projects featured at SXSW, Cannes, Webby Awards, FWA, Saatchi & Saatchi New Directors Showcase, Vimeo Staff Picks, Communication Arts Web Picks and ADC Young Guns.

    Director Ayse Altinok Joins Good Times For U.S. Commercial Representation

    Tuesday, November 12, 2024

    Director and writer Ayse Altinok has joined commercial production company Good Times for U.S. representation. Altinok has directed campaigns for Nike, Horizon Milk, Larabar, Jose Cuervo, Unilever, Mavi Jeans, Boots, Lumene, and more.

    A former art director at Wieden + Kennedy in Amsterdam and Portland, she approaches each project with careful consideration, analyzing the end goal as a first step and uncovering meaningful moments along the way. Her work features a cinematic, dreamlike quality and elevated aesthetic.

    “Having the right chemistry and karma is very powerful and that’s what attracted me to Good Times, and also timing,” said Altinok. “It’s a place where I can continue to push myself as a filmmaker and try new things, whether it’s for a traditional commercial spot or a high concept art project and everything in between.”

    “I’ve worked with Ayse for 20 years and she’s super talented. She’s great at finding gems in stories that would otherwise be overlooked, and her aesthetic is phenomenal,” noted Bernadette Spear, executive producer at Good Times. “She can also empathize with creatives, because she’s lived in that world and understands what our clients face and knows how to support their vision.”

    Throughout her career, Altinok’s work has won many industry accolades, including awards from The One Show, Clio, Art Directors Club, AICP, and the ANDYs. In 2016, she was nominated for a D&AD Next Director Award for her short film A Day at the Mall Reminds Me of America, a motion poem. Her first short film, 2009’s Hortum was an official selection of 11 film festivals worldwide and won the Special Jury Prize for Best Drama at the Amsterdam Film Festival.
