Reviews & Profile for Grandma's Chicken Pants

What We Do

At GCP our passion is helping clients creatively and cost effectively communicate their stories.  We strive to bring harmony between creativity, budget constraints, and deadlines.  With every project we always start with WHY? Why are you doing this? Why do you think video is the answer? We have actually talked clients out of projects simply because we didn't believe that video was the best way to communicate the message they wanted to communicate.  We approach every project from music videos to documentaries to CEO "State of the Business" messages, with the same mandate - to create a video that communicates the story in unique ways that holds the viewer's attention, that is within the established budget parameters, and is delivered well before the deadline. 

We regularly work with multi-billion dollar companies who have yearly budgets for video production and at the same time we regularly work with small companies and individuals who don't even know where to start in terms of budgets.  We believe and have been told that our creativity, problem solving and experience is what brings clients back to us.  We always try to find a way to make it work.

What is that name all about?  

Back in the late 1800's Granny was an early pioneer in the little known craft of constructing quality trousers out of the left-over chicken parts from the poultry industry.  She made her living by creating seldom sought-after knickers from repurposed feathers, bones, skin and beak.  Her boney little fingers toiled up to fourteen hours a day, often to the point of breaking, fashioning the thin skins into God-awful, uncomfortable leg coverings. By the turn of the century she had made a name for herself as The Matriarch of Chicken Pants, the original and only artisan performing this meticulous tailoring.  Besides the fact that the pants were excruciatingly pokey, scratchy and sticky - they were a virtual breading ground for a host of potentially deadly bacterium, nevertheless she persisted.  Her big break came when she was granted an exhibition display between the newly introduced ice cream cone and hot dog sandwich booths at the 1904 Louisiana Purchase Exposition, more commonly known as The 1904 St. Louis World's Fair.  Folks from around the globe placed their orders for the artisan trousers, some galavanting about the fairgrounds in their odd-looking and death-stenched breeches. Her new found success obliged her to indoctrinate her daughter, three granddaughters, and 7 great-grand children with the métier until her death at the age of 119 years young.  While her fingers looked like they had gone through the gears of a combine she died with a smile on her face and blood soaked chicken feathers on her nose.  Today her descendants continue rendering the fine chicken chinos at the premium price of $275,000 each, with custom three-letter monograming for a paltry up-charge of $11. Considering the demand for the poultry pantaloons has fallen substantially since their hay-day back in "aught four", the family has added video production to their repertoire, helping make ends meet until Grandma's Chicken Pants come roaring back in style!
