“While we pivoted our in-person event -- Country Classic Auction -- to the virtual CCA@home, we knew we would require video content creation and support. Time was of the essence and from the outset, communicating with GIANT Creative was a great experience. They were responsive, customer-focused and extremely well-organized. As we brainstormed ideas on our initial call, Andrew listened to our needs and incorporated key objectives into his team's creative work. The results were met with positive feedback; GIANT Creative took a bold approach capturing the complexities of mental health and sharing stories that resonated with our key stakeholders. It was a pleasure to partner and collaborate with GIANT on this project!”
