“Check Writer” introduces us to a key staffer for Ebates, the company which pays consumers money for shopping online. Our spokesman is a speed demon check writer as conceived by a creative team at marketing agency EVB.

Jared Hess, whose feature filmmaking credits include Napoleon Dynamite and Nacho Libre (as well as the upcoming heist comedy Masterminds), directed “Check Writer” via Community Films, kicking off a gig which will see him helm each Ebates spot for a yearlong campaign spanning the U.S. and Canada.
