Eli Ash loves things that most people hate: spreadsheets, organization, planning, and budgeting.

As Head of Production at Mustache Agency, she is tasked with the tremendous responsibility of juggling multiple projects and managing various production and post teams daily.

Eli came into my world when I was hired to produce a commercial for Secrets Resort & Spa in the Dominican Republic last summer. Long time listeners of the pod will hopefully remember me yapping about it.

It was one of the funnest jobs I’ve ever gotten to produce.

With deep roots in the advertising and commercial world, she has produced a variety of projects throughout her career.

She’s worked with companies like Complex Media, Vice, Warner Brothers Records, Nike, The Nobel Peace Prize, OXFAM and Crisis Action. She’s worked all over the world for networks such as NBC, A&E, BBC, MTV, The Travel Channel, The Food Network, Discovery Science and Sesame Workshop.  

She has produced Music Videos for a variety of artists from G-Eazy, Halsey, Young the Giant, A$AP Ferg and Ceelo Green. 

She’s worked with brands such as Nike, Dove, S'well, Clinique and Honda.

She’s very impressive. It’s no wonder that since this recording a few months ago, she started a new position in a similar role at Netflix.

This week, Eli dives deep into the transition from the freelance hustle to going in house at Mustache, how an agency functions, and the changes the advertising industry is facing.

Can’t wait to hear what you think of this week’s episode!

Beijos,

"A producer is a logistical mastermind, they are a savvy communicator, they are the gatekeeper and provider of information and a great connector between resources and people to anything that it takes to get a project made.‘“
