MTV's - The Hard Times of RJ Berger Campaign [Director's Cut]

To promote MTV’s new scripted comedy series we created a campaign referred to internally as “The Moment of Awe.” The spot show’s the show’s lead character, RJ Berger, having his pants yanked down in front of the school and all the reactions from the cast in super slow motion. We were so lucky to get the whole cast for the shoot. It took a lot of prep to block it all out, and we shot during one 14-hr day. It was a really fun project, thank you everyone involved. Enjoy all the project details at Sniper Twins Dot Com and for background and behind the scenes of the show visit the Hard Times home page.
