Summer 2019 Union Commericals

/

Summer commercials season has just been completed. IATSE 490 supplied crew for many of these shoots in MN. So far this summer we collaborated with high profile clients like Marvin Windows, Target, Hy-Vee grocery, Blue Cross Blue Shield Insurance, Mn Lottery (feat. The Mn Vikings), Google Startups and many others. Our crews work hard, they work with many of the best directors and prodcuers form all over the world to do these shoots. With our experience, we rise to the challenge of each project and give the production what they ask for and more.

Here are some of these spots.
