Embodying Big’s ‘relentless pursuit’ attitude towards projects, Senior Producer Kristin Dober has been awarded the American Advertising Federation’s (AAF) Birmingham Ten Award for Production. She is one of only 10 Birmingham advertising professionals recognized as 2022 winners for a range of industry specialties.
“When we looked at what this award embodies — an individual who takes the brilliant and sometimes grandiose-ideas of the creative team and makes them a reality — there was no one more deserving than Kristin,” said said Big Executive Creative Director Aaron Gresham. “She is a consummate professional balancing client needs with agency capabilities — all with an innate understanding of industry nuances that make our business tick.”
With 10-plus years of agency production experience in Los Angeles, Atlanta and more, Kristin provides creatives with the tools necessary to bring large-scale ideas to life across a variety of mediums. Her efforts have produced Big works such as DoorDash’s Project Dash testimonial series, St. Paul and the Broken Bones’ 3000 A.D. music video, the Alabama State Department of Education’s ‘We Teach Alabama’ campaign, assets for Alabama Gulf Seafood, C Spire’s spot with ESPN’s Kirk Herbstreit, Jimmie Johnson’s retirement video in partnership with Valvoline, and countless others.
More important than her outcomes however is her commitment to those around her. Kristin balances budgets with creative dreams and tight turnarounds, and she leads effectively and efficiently with both resolve and confidence. Employees know they can trust her with an honest answer, a quick resolution, fervent dedication to a job well done and a favorable outcome. Above all, she never fails to have her team’s back, fulfilling production with enthusiasm and a willingness to deliver.
Production is without question an integral part of agency deliverables, and without question, Big could not generate as high or as impressive of a work product without the talented, indelible Kristin Dober.
