Today we’d like to introduce you to Devan Ford
Hi Devan, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
Our story began as two men working at a comedy club 5 nights a week. We knew this place wasn’t the end all be all, so we decided to come together and focus on our strengths. John came to me with the idea to create a comical commercial for ASICS. His background consists of writing skits for a recently bloomed YouTube channel and wanted to grow something where he held a greater impact. My background of producing and directing film played perfectly into that. From there, more and more people have been wanting to be a part of what we are growing. The rest of our story is continuing to write itself day in and day out.
Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
The biggest obstacle our company has faced is growing a following. As consistent as our posts have been, there is always more we can do. Which has resulted in us targeting as many social media platforms as possible in order to find our next client and grow our business. Thankfully, we understand this is still a startup, so it’s only up from here.
Thanks – so what else should our readers know about Comedic Lift?
Our company focuses on bringing commercials to the viewer in a fun and cinematic way. We look around the industry to see many different ad agencies and content creators running rampant with everything looking the exact same, in terms of how they shoot their material. “Why can’t we kick it up a notch and try to reinvent the wheel?” Our goal is to advertise other companies products in not only a way to bring joy and laughter, but to make the experience more immersive with our tone and feel.
We’d love to hear about how you think about risk taking?
We believe risks are what separates a good company from a great company. The only way to stand out in this industry is to be different, but how can we do that, if we only stick to the social norm. Not only do we study what works in today’s society, but we are constantly thinking of new ways to burst through the ceiling and build a reputable and efficient company.
