FOOD & WINE: MAD GENIUS TIPS


Creative Breed created and produced and Cheryl Miller Houser directed this hit web series for Food & Wine that has become a lucrative intellectual property for the magazine. We made 104 videos over 4 seasons and were nominated for a James Beard Award.

 
 

In these fun and funny videos, host Justin Chapple reveals wonderfully oddball cooking tips and kitchen hacks. The video series spawned a book of the same title and Justin appears regularly on The Today Show to demonstrate Mad Genius Tips.

TESTIMONIAL

From conception through delivery, Creative Breed is brilliant at creating a narrative arc, emotion and drama to captivate and entertain viewers.  They were the perfect partner to create Food & Wine’s video series Mad Genius Tips. The series is hugely popular, won awards and even spawned a book. I look forward to working with them again!
