SMITH

Commercial & Creative Producer

Owner & Executive Producer @ Halleloo Creative

I am a commercial & creative producer with a background in writing and performing comedy, and the Executive Producer of Halleloo Creative. My passion for spreadsheets and my depth of experience, in a variety of roles on set, have enabled to me effectively and intuitively bring together teams, talents, and timelines that result in fun, collaborative, and successful shoots.

At Halleloo, I serve as the connection point between our creative, our clients, and our crew to set goals, set expectations, and oversee the development of our projects from pitch to final product. I value a game attitude, a good sense of humor, and an appreciation for every person who steps onto a Halleloo set, and I am very proud of the relationships Halleloo has fostered with both crews and clients.

As my role at Halleloo has evolved from Production Assistant to Executive Producer, I’ve found a love for all things pre-production; from working out pitches with my partners, to balancing budgets and planning shoots down to the minute. My favorite moments are when a color-coded shot list has been cleared, and the shoot wrap 5 minutes early.

Away from my desk, I can usually be found reading at my local bar or making a loaf of focaccia. I’m a proud regular at my favorite neighborhood spots, and I’m on a first name basis with the morning crew at my nearby Dunkin’.
