New York's Quiet Man Celebrates Ten Years at the Top

New York's Quiet Man Celebrates Ten Years at the Top

"It's oh so quiet: it's oh so still You're all alone: and so peaceful until ... " - Bjork

NEW YORK, Sept. 13 /PRNewswire/ -- In many respects, Quiet Man functions much as it sounds. The New York visual effects company is decidedly low-key and casual, reflecting the comfortable confidence with which they ply their craft. Make no mistake, however -- Quiet Man is anything but quiet. Since opening their doors a decade ago, the creative studio has enjoyed a, for the most part uninterrupted, growth in status and reputation in the advertising industry, in which they are renowned for the high level of aesthetic and technical finesse they bring to their visual effects work.

Quiet Man specializes in creating the kind of seamless visual effects that cause viewers -- seasoned industry professionals among them -- to watch a gold-medal worthy figure-skating performance and say: "I never knew Woody Allen could skate so well!" Through the years, the company has made Jane Goodall's chimpanzees imitate Marlon Brando and Sylvester Stallone for HBO; helped a FedEx truck travel to the merry old land of Oz to help the Lollipop Guild; and enabled two scrawny teenagers outclass the NBA's finest. And that's just the tip of the Quiet Man iceberg.

Quiet Man's work has had a profound influence on the ad industry. In addition to winning an Emmy award, the aforementioned HBO spot, "Chimps," in which Goodall's simian subjects secretly watch her HBO connection and begin behaving like famous movie characters from The Godfather to Forrest Gump, gave rise to a veritable avalanche of commercials featuring talking animals.

Not surprisingly, the company has garnered the attention of the top directors and editors in the commercial business. Working with legendary ad director Joe Pytka, the Quiet Man team has created some of the most enduring and sought-after work in the business, including The Beatles' groundbreaking "Free As A Bird" music video released in 1996, and Pepsi's "Goldfish" spot, in which a pet goldfish does incredible tricks for a drop of cola with disastrous but hilarious results.

And it all started with a couple of industry veterans who were absolutely certain there was a better way of working.

QUIET ROOTS

Truth be told, Amy Taylor and Johnnie Semerad never expected things to turn out this way. When the duo started Quiet Man, their New York City-based animation and visual effects company, in 1995, they had no way of knowing what the ensuing decade would bring.

Now the premier visual effects studio in what is arguably the world's toughest market, Quiet Man still occupies an ever-growing amount of space in the same Manhattan edifice that provided the first home for the original bellicose editors of The New Yorker. From the very beginning, vigorous talent and easy-going style combined to ensure Quiet Man made a whole lot of positive noise in the ad business.

Significantly, Quiet Man's inaugural year of business also forged a long- lasting and fruitful relationship with a then-emerging advertising legend.

And it all started with an oversized basketball player.

ENTER JOE PYTKA

By the time he met Quiet Man, commercial director Joe Pytka had already given the world such ubiquitous catch phrases as Ray Charles' "Uh-huh" for Pepsi and "This Is Your Brain on Drugs," likely the most memorable anti-drug PSA ever created, and would go on to direct Space Jam (1996), a delightful blend of animation and live action starring another living legend, basketballer Michael Jordan. In Quiet Man's early days, however, Pytka was in need of something special for a Pepsi commercial starring 7'1" Shaquille O'Neal, then a rising star with the NBA's Orlando Magic.

"The commercial called for Shaq to run through a series of television monitors, each showing some classic television moment," explains Semerad. "We weren't even six months old at that point, and the spot had already been awarded to somebody else. The entire piece had been shot with Shaq running left to right, but Joe wanted to have him run the other way. Initially, they simply tried to flip the film, but that meant his number was backwards and things just didn't look right. Anyway, we took care of it."

So impressed, in fact, that Pytka offered the new wunderkinds a true plum: the video for "Free As A Bird," a new song from The Beatles. The video is still revered today for its innovative look and effects, and went on to win a Grammy award. It was also a turning point for the young company of two:

"It was pretty much just the two of us back then," says Taylor, shaking her head in delayed disbelief. "Johnnie's work was absolutely groundbreaking on that video. We did things that people didn't know you could do. Johnnie just sat down and tried to figure it out with the software. From the beginning, I think both Johnnie and I were sufficiently ambitious and astute to recognize great opportunities when they showed up. First there was Shaq, then The Beatles and that moved us into the many Super Bowl ads that we've been doing ever since. No matter what, we did whatever it took to get the job done well. We still do."

TWO QUIET

Once they got into doing Super Bowl ads, Taylor and Semerad knew they were going to need some help.

Even though Semerad kept a hideaway bed in his office and cut his own hair with a Flow-bee -- the combination razor and vacuum cleaner made famous through late-night infomercials -- he was quickly forced to admit that Quiet Man was too successful to remain so ... well ... quiet.

By now, everybody knows that the Super Bowl is as much advertising war as football championship. Every year since their inception, Quiet Man has been part of the battle. By the 2001 game, the company was working on no less than a dozen of the highest-profile commercials produced, including three spots for Pepsi, three for Federal Express and one each for Doritos, Cingular and Visa.

ALL WORK AND ALL PLAY?

It all sounds so fun and easy, doesn't it? Despite their laid-back styles and mellow smiles, however, Taylor and Semerad will be the first to admit that Quiet Man's decade has been as much about hard work as good fun.

And still, the work continues to flood through their doors. The team recently worked with Pytka on an "eco-friendly" spot for General Electric, the centerpiece of which is a full-grown African elephant dancing flawlessly to "Singin' in the Rain":

"I'm very proud of the work we've done over the last ten years," says Semerad. "I also think we're doing our best work ever, right now."

In other words, Quiet Man is ready to make some noise.

Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "plan," "estimate," "project," or future or conditional verbs such as "will," "would," "should," "could," or "may."

Our financial performance in the future may differ, possibly materially, from our current expectations as set forth in this news release due to a number of risks and uncertainties. Those risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: the possibility of changes in general economic conditions or conditions in the collectibles markets, such as a possible decline in the popularity of some high-value collectibles, which could result in reductions in the volume of authentication and grading submissions and, therefore, the fees we are able to generate; a lack of diversity in our sources of revenues and our dependence on coin authentication and grading for a significant percentage of our total revenues, which makes us more vulnerable to adverse changes in economic and market conditions, including declines in the value of precious metals or recessionary conditions, that could lead to reduced coin and other collectibles submissions, with a resultant reduction in our revenues and in our income; our dependence on certain key executives and collectibles experts, the loss of the services of any of which could adversely affect our ability to obtain authentication and grading submissions and, therefore, could harm our operating results; increased competition from other collectibles services companies that could result in reductions in collectibles submissions to us or could require us to reduce the prices we charge for our services; the risk that we will incur unanticipated liabilities under our authentication and grading warranties that would increase our operating expenses; the risk that new service offerings and business initiatives that we may undertake will not gain market acceptance or will increase our operating expenses or reduce our overall profitability or cause us to incur losses; the risk that our strategy to exit the collectibles sales business and focus substantially all of our resources on our authentication and grading businesses will not be successful in enabling us to improve our profitability over the longer term or to grow our existing businesses or expand into new collectibles or high value asset markets; and. if we grow our business by acquiring any existing or commencing any new authentication and grading businesses, the risks that we will be unable to successfully integrate those businesses into our operations, that those businesses will not gain market acceptance; and that business expansion may result in a costly diversion of management time and resources and increase our operating expenses.
