JORDAN BRADY: Commercial Success


Listen Later

A self-taught filmmaker who has directed four feature films, three documentaries and over 1300 national & regional commercials, as well as Maria Bamford’s acclaimed Netflix Comedy Special. Jordan directs advertising campaigns for brands and agencies from all over the world. He has directed comedy giants Will Ferrell, Kevin Hart, Keegan-Michael Key, Rory Scovel and other notable celebrities like Arnold Schwarzenegger and Brad Paisley. Equally nimble with visual effects, he’s shot over 50 sleight-of-hand magic trick spots for Toyota and Saatchi & Saatchi Los Angeles that effortlessly combine in-camera and digital trickery. Jordan is the recipient of numerous advertising awards which include multiple Clio Awards, National Gold, ADDY’s, Gold Promax Award, One Show, D Show, Pencil and AICP Awards. His work is routinely spotlighted in Adweek, Ads of The World and AgencySpy. In 2010, Jordan completed his passion project I Am Comic, a feature documentary that is part of a trilogy on what it takes to be a stand-up comedian, followed by 2014’s aptly titled I Am Road Comic starring Pete Holmes and Marc Maron. The most gripping film of the trilogy is I Am Battle Comic. Filming took Brady to Afghanistan, Kuwait and undisclosed parts of the Middle East where he performed stand-up comedy for our troops stationed there. Jordan hosts the weekly filmmaking podcast Respect the Process, described as “The Rosetta Stone of Filmmaking”, and teaches Commercial Directing Bootcamp.
