Not famous actors, according to our Chief Creative Officer, Melissa Rosenthal. \u201cCelebrities can do one of two things,\u201d says Melissa, \u201cThey can add to an ad, but they can also kind of detract from it depending upon who you choose.\u201d It was decided that the concept was not only strong enough to deliver sans celebrity, but keeping the cast largely unknown wouldn\u2019t risk distracting viewers from the message. Plus, it minimizes the budget so the funds can go towards the overall production.<\/p>\n<p><em>Did we mention we produced this commercial entirely in-house?<\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img alt=\"clickup superbowl commercial behind the scenes\" class=\"wp-image-37340\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"934\" loading=\"lazy\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\" src=\"https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/clickup-superbowl-commercial-behind-the-scenes-2-1400x934.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/clickup-superbowl-commercial-behind-the-scenes-2-1400x934.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/clickup-superbowl-commercial-behind-the-scenes-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/clickup-superbowl-commercial-behind-the-scenes-2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/clickup-superbowl-commercial-behind-the-scenes-2-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/clickup-superbowl-commercial-behind-the-scenes-2-700x467.jpg 700w, https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/clickup-superbowl-commercial-behind-the-scenes-2.jpg 1999w\" width=\"1400\"\/><figcaption>Andrew Lane for ClickUp<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"1-the-first-quarter-\">The First Quarter\u00a0<\/h2>\n<p>Once pre-production was done, it was time to shoot the spot. \u201cIt\u2019s not an easy task to find a property in Southern California that has the bones to turn into 1776 Pennsylvania, but our amazing producer Francesca made it happen,\u201d says Nick Fabiano, ClickUp\u2019s Head of Video and our commercial director.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The footage itself was, amazingly, shot in just one day. \u201cActually, most of the day consisted of getting every actor through placement, make-up, and wardrobe because we wanted to be as accurate to the era as we could,\u201d says Fabiano. \u201cOnce we were ready, the filming only took five hours!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The crew, producers, and talent alike all followed strict COVID-19 safety protocols\u2026which created a visual anachronism that we won\u2019t soon forget.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img alt=\"clickup superbowl commercial behind the scenes\" class=\"wp-image-37341\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"934\" loading=\"lazy\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\" src=\"https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/clickup-superbowl-commercial-behind-the-scenes-1400x934.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/clickup-superbowl-commercial-behind-the-scenes-1400x934.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/clickup-superbowl-commercial-behind-the-scenes-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/clickup-superbowl-commercial-behind-the-scenes-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/clickup-superbowl-commercial-behind-the-scenes-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/clickup-superbowl-commercial-behind-the-scenes-700x467.jpg 700w, https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/clickup-superbowl-commercial-behind-the-scenes.jpg 1999w\" width=\"1400\"\/><figcaption>Andrew Lane for ClickUp<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"2-tackling-the-tasks\">Tackling The Tasks<\/h2>\n<p>Once filming wraps on a commercial, the work is only about halfway done. While the shoot might have been done in one day, post-production took three weeks of tireless work from ClickUp\u2019s video editors, animators, and producers before being passed on to the marketing team to blast off.<\/p>\n<p>Alan Loayza, our Director of Production, knew perhaps more than anyone the importance of organization for such a big feat. \u201cOrganizing every step of the ad from development through delivery requires so many teams being on the same page. Accounting, finance, social, distribution, legal, and all the script and edit approvals\u2026it\u2019s easy to see how this can be a large mess without the right tool.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cClickUp makes it come together so easily with everything in its right place, and for a project like this with so many stakeholders involved and so much money invested, it really couldn\u2019t have been done without our product,\u201d Loayza said.<\/p>\n<p>Post-Production Supervisor, Rodney McMahon, says he couldn\u2019t have gotten it done without subtasks in ClickUp. \u201cI keep it pretty simple while working in ClickUp and mainly use subtasks to build out our timelines,\u201d he tells me.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>As for Nick Fabiano, it\u2019s the people <em>plus<\/em> the platform that led us to our win. \u201cUsing our software was crucial for planning and organizing, but this couldn\u2019t happen without my super-talented and hilarious co-workers. Beyond the fact that they are so efficient in their roles [at ClickUp] to pull off an expedited Super Bowl campaign, they are just so much fun. It made the day-to-day a pleasure.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img alt=\"clickup superbowl commercial behind the scenes\" class=\"wp-image-37342\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"934\" loading=\"lazy\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\" src=\"https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/clickup-superbowl-commercial-behind-the-scenes-3-1400x934.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/clickup-superbowl-commercial-behind-the-scenes-3-1400x934.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/clickup-superbowl-commercial-behind-the-scenes-3-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/clickup-superbowl-commercial-behind-the-scenes-3-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/clickup-superbowl-commercial-behind-the-scenes-3-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/clickup-superbowl-commercial-behind-the-scenes-3-700x467.jpg 700w, https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/clickup-superbowl-commercial-behind-the-scenes-3.jpg 1999w\" width=\"1400\"\/><figcaption>Andrew Lane for ClickUp<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>I have to agree with Nick there. As a writer and creative who had worked on a Super Bowl campaign at an actual ad agency before coming to ClickUp, the difference in efficiency, communication, and creativity between the two is night and day: The fancy ad agency had absolutely nothing on ClickUp in terms of tools <em>and<\/em> team spirit.<\/p>\n<p>Even though I\u2019m not on the video team, I had visibility on everything since the day Paul Costabile\u2014who played the hilariously-hairlined John Hancock in our commercial\u2014finished the script and looped me in for my input. With a few clicks on a few tasks, I could see exactly how production was moving along, and if I could see it, that means the people who needed to could as well.<\/p>\n<p>After the three long weeks of painstaking post-production (Did you know that every time you see a laptop screen in the commercial you\u2019re seeing hours of frame-by-frame motion graphic animation added to the video?!) It was time to start getting the word out about our upcoming Super Bowl spot, and that\u2019s where the high visibility between departments really paid off.<\/p>\n<p>Along with blogs like this one, I also craft much of the advertising copy for our campaigns\u2014this one was no exception! Because I could easily follow every task and could communicate from my home in Los Angeles to the crew in San Diego in ClickUp, I was able to do my duties with zero blockers. Zero.<\/p>\n<p>At my former ad agency, we didn\u2019t have a solid work management system where all of our tasks and teams could live in one united place, so suffice it to say, that experience spooked me from working on another Super Bowl commercial any time soon. I\u2019m so glad that I got to see that when it comes to a huge project, it\u2019s not about the funds, it\u2019s about the foundation\u2014and ClickUp gave us all the tools we needed to build our own success, in-house.<\/p>\n<div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\" style=\"height:10px\"><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"3-good-game-everyone\">Good Game, Everyone<\/h2>\n<p>Super Bowl ads are designed to get your attention, but if the product they\u2019re selling isn\u2019t everything that\u2019s promised, it can be a disaster.
