I came to TPSC largely because of the company's reputation, and EP John Noble; his ability to relate to the agency and his standing amongst the industry really got me excited. I also joined because of the film side. The Traveling Picture Show Company's integrated approach is an incredible opportunity for me to expand my commercial work into the full spectrum of branded content for broadcast, film, apps and web, said Schaak. Now, no matter what you have done as a director - a good director is a good director and can work in all disciplines. The playing field is a little bigger. I'm really excited to gain these opportunities through TPSC.

He has collaborated with agencies such as Saatchi & Saatchi, Leo Burnett, DDB, Publicis, Taxi, BBDO, Carmichael Lynch, Campbell Mithun and Rethink. I completely respect the process and creativity behind the work of the agency and brand, each job I have has honest fluid dialogue to ensure that we all see eye to eye, making the job that much better, says Schaak.
