Score a Score, a music company with operations in Los Angeles and Boston, has added Ariella Abrams as creative manager working out of its L.A. office.
Previously serving as director, client relations at Sencit Music in L.A., Abrams brings a unique trailer-focused perspective to the current Score a Score. She’ll work in tandem with the other creative team members producing custom music, pitching music from Score a Score’s catalog, developing artists on the company roster, and helping to grow Score a Score’s ever expanding footprint in the market.
The company has also just launched a rebranded website. CEO Jordan Passman explained, “After a substantial investment in the company website over the course of 7 years, I came to the realization that our branding was off – we’d outgrown and pivoted away from the original concept of the website (a digital marketplace to connect content creators and composers), and centered our business around a human touch – people want to work with people, and human-to-human interaction has grown the business exponentially in ways that technology could never replicate. So we ditched our long-time robot mascots, and cartoony imagery, and rebranded the company to look sleeker, cleaner, simpler and warmer.”
Score a Score’s recent work includes ad campaigns for Microsoft, Intel, Apple, MasterCard, Covergirl, PODS, Taco Bell and Zillow, and trailers for films such as Overlord, Disenchanted, The Girl In the Spider’s Web, Venom, Incredibles 2, Ready Player One, Won’t You Be My Neighbor? and Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom.
Score a Score’s also very busy on the music supervision side, with credits including the series Best Shot (produced by LeBron James, which premiered this month), Fastest Car, Rhett & Link’s Buddy System and Chef’s Table, Season 1.
Sinners and Saints Adds Apple Pie To Its Branded Menu
Bicoastal Sinners and Saints--the multidisciplinary studio overseen by managing director/executive producer Heather Heller, and partners/EPs Yann Henric and Thomas Carroll--has added Apple Pie Tabletop to its roster for branded content. Known for its food and beverage content creation, Apple Pie comprises the husband-and-wife team of director/DP Gene Dubin and director/art director Alisa Volodina. In addition to representation, the move expands Apple Pie’s production capabilities through the combination of its centrally located full-service studio in New York and a newly established mobile studio in Los Angeles. Apple Pie recently teamed with Sinners and Saints on a Wienerschnitzel project created by Innocean.
“We believe that our dual studio strategy positions us uniquely in the competitive landscape of food and beverage storytelling,” said Heller. “By blending the artistry of the New York studio with the flexibility of our Los Angeles location, we can tailor our productions to meet the unique demands of each project, regardless of geography.”
“Working with Sinners and Saints in the demanding field of tabletop was an absolute pleasure,” shared Apple Pie Tabletop in a joint statement. “Warm welcome, unwavering support and dedication--everything a director can ask for. The entire experience was both enjoyable and rewarding. We will not miss an opportunity to collaborate with them again.”
“The first thing you notice is that Apple Pie has beautiful work,” Heller observed. “Having worked with them, I can say that Gene and Alisa are extremely meticulous and detail-oriented; their combination of talent and agility appeals to agencies and clients.” Also appealing to Heller is Apple Pie Tabletop’s brisk international...
