Go To Team worked with the creative team at NS&G to shoot footage that will be incorporated into the 9 broadcast spots. Creative Director, Gary O’Neil was on location to ensure that the “simple advertising strategy of bringing the lottery to the people of South Carolina” was upheld.

South Carolinians comprised Seventy-Five percent of the crew. Trident Technical College professors filled two key positions, and several Trident students served as production assistants. One of our key goals was to insure that we used as many qualified crew members from South Carolina as possible”, Patrick Bryant, Operations Manager for the project.
