Anonymous Content is pleased to announce the recent signing of director John Osborne to their Commercial and Integrated divisions. John's commercial credits include a two spot campaign for Sharpie featuring David Beckham via BrandBuzz New York, extensive work for Converse, including three spots for the company's Disruption campaign, Guinness, NJ Nets, and Better Burger.
Anonymous’ Partner/Head of Commercials Dave Morrison comments on the addition, “John’s extremely resourceful, and posseses a compelling modern visual style. He’s very contemporary, and super adaptable to most production situations, which perfectly suits both the evolving integrated market space which we’ve been aggressively penetrating, as well as the traditional commercial space. We see a lot of reels from young, talented directors, but John was one we felt truly fit our model.

John comments on his new roost, “For me, it was really crucial to find a company that was not only a good fit in terms of the the people, but one where creativity and great content were top priorities. I think the approach at Anonymous has always been to set the bar very high. As a director, I thrive in that kind of environment. Deciding to sign with Anonymous was pretty much a no-brainer. There was a comfort level among the EP’s and sales team that I hadn’t really experienced before. We definitely share the same approach in terms of what kinds of work we wanted to pursue and how we would get there. Coming from a visual-based background, I felt it was important to know that my style of working would fit within their structure. It makes the work that much more fun knowing that you have the support of a lot of really talented people.”

Osborne was recently selected to be part of Shots Magazine’s 2007 New Directors DVD. Originally a still photographer, John has been a full-time director since 2006, and holds a B.F.A. in film and a bachelor’s in literature, both from Boston College.
