Proof of Concept
I co-wrote and -directed the short film Proof of Concept.
It premiered at the 2023 Tribeca Film Festival and has since been acquired by The New Yorker. Vimeo Staff Pick.
Ad World
Last year I was on the couch trying to find the next great workplace comedy but I couldn’t find what I was looking for. So I decided to make it. With Ellie Sachs and Stapleview.
It’s gotten quite a lot of views and good comments and even some nice press.
The New Yorker Centennial
Le Truc partnered with The New Yorker to chronicle everything they’ve covered over the last century. With nothing but New Yorker covers.
Animation by ROOF. Music by Human. VO by Jia Tolentino.
The Simpsons
I wrote the 667th episode of The Simpsons, “Gorillas On The Mast.”
It remains the only Simpsons episode in which Homer does something stupid.
(He buys a boat.)
If you have Disney+ you can watch it here.
The New Yorker
I have had countless (exactly six) pieces published by The New Yorker.
McSweeney’s
My writing also appears in McSweeney’s Internet Tendency.
Jimmy Butler’s Butler
I’m the guy who came up with “Jimmy Butler’s Butler” for Hulu + Live TV while working as a Senior Copywriter at Known.
It is the first commercial I’ve written that J. Balvin has commented “😂” on.
Clio Sports Bronze winner.
Hulu + Live TV Acting Academy
Following the colossal success of “Jimmy Butler’s Butler,” Hulu asked Known to make a football-facing follow-up campaign.
So we wrote this for DK Metcalf and Charlie Day.
A Recipe For Seduction
I co-wrote the screenplay for the original Lifetime mini-movie starring Mario Lopez as Colonel Sanders.
Conceived in partnership by Wieden + Kennedy and JEAN for KFC and Lifetime.
Grand Clio and Gold Promax winner.
Awkwafina 7 Train Takeover
Comedy Central launched Awkwafina Is Nora From Queens by making Awkwafina the voice of the 7 train—a first of its kind MTA activation.
My job? Write every single stop announcement for Awkwafina to read between Queens and Manhattan.
The viral stunt started a media frenzy, attracted millions of social impressions, helped bring in 3.8 million total viewers to the premiere episode, took home a Silver Clio, and won so many Gold Promaxes that Comedy Central was named Internal Marketing Team of the Year.
“The next stop is 69th street. Which is definitely not funny in any way.”
“Please help us keep the subway clean. Just the inside, though. Don’t go crazy.”
“This is Times Square-42nd Street, where New Yorkers go to relax.”
“Please remember poles are for hands only.”
“This is 40th street. I don’t wanna say it’s my favorite street, but it’s definitely in my top 40.”
“Friendly reminder that seats are for people. Not your bag.”
