Self-Perform Crews

Crews working an active site, cut vertical for hiring. Trades recruiting happens on a phone, so the deliverable is shaped for a phone.

General contractors that self-perform have a story subcontractor-reliant competitors cannot tell: their own crews, on their own sites, doing the work with their own hands. This film puts those crews on screen for the audience JCI most needs to reach, which is the next generation of tradespeople deciding where to work.

Like the Lake Park piece, it is vertical because hiring happens on phones. A recruiting film nobody sees in their feed is a film that does not exist.
