Where imagination
meets direction
Hey there. I’m Mandy Harmon, a film director, creative director consultant, and story marketer.
My team and I are here to help.
What can I do for you?
Is your marketing struggling to scale? Well, it ain’t just about making short-term sales anymore. No longer can brands be passive without a speck of personality and expect long-term results. Authentic messaging that people hear, see, feel, and act on is marketing that simply sells better.
Work with me as a Creative Director Consultant for effective, memorable, and creative campaigns that stick and lead to clicks.

After a slew of branding and sales commercials, with millions of views and thousands of dollars produced for brands, I am experienced in directing sales videos to story-driven commercials.
Having collaborated with diverse clients (B2B and B2C) across sectors - athletic apparel, intimates, hair and makeup, food and drink, home design, I’ve creatively audited all kinds of visuals, from fashion editorial photography to product photography to food styling. I understand the need to combine product clarity with brand beauty, and weigh them with equal importance.

One of the most affordable, quickest ways to increase resonance and sales is through copy.
You may be blind to what your customers don't know, so I come in with fresh eyes and together, we define the main messaging propositions that all copy (email, social, web, etc) need to root back to.
Sales and clarity-focused copy, but with a personality twist. Develop brand tone with concrete examples that can be immediately applied (like, copy and paste easy!).YES! What’s next?

It’s hard to identify and prioritize top issues when you’ve been in the depths for so long. You need fresh, experienced eyes! I dig into your creative library of photos, videos, messaging, and ads, then identify inconsistencies and opportunity gaps for better messaging with new and existing audiences in mind. Subject to price adjustment depending on how many platforms and content reviewed: web, social, email, internal creative library etc.

Same, as a filmmaker and artist, there are some things worth making just for arts’ sake. Let’s put those god damn financials aside for a second and brainstorm and explore.
I’ve always got multiple projects going on. I’m also artistically focused on documentaries and narrative films.
Film is the ultimate collaborative art form. Shoot me a message and let’s chat. If you’re in Austin, TX, let’s get coffee.
