Dreamboat Sets Sail: The Creative Production Company Launches with a Focus on Delighting Audiences

Mar. 26, 2024

Executive Producer Peter B. Williams, and the directorial duo The Norman Brothers (Keith and Kipp Norman), are excited to announce the launch of Dreamboat, a production company driven by a simple yet powerful ethos: to delight, inspire, and connect with audiences through creativity.  

As an artist-founded studio, Dreamboat has built a supportive and collaborative collective featuring a diverse and dynamic mix of passionate storytellers with a shared mission. Prioritizing relationships and teamwork, their goal is to create a vibrant ecosystem where directors can truly excel as dynamic contributors on their own productions and as co-creators for the collective benefit. 

Keith Norman stated:

"Our nautical motif kind of merges the concepts of "life at sea" with "being a total babe,” which we thought was fun, funny, and true of our ambitions.  The way we look at it is this: We offer the fun and adventure of a pirate ship, along with the many comforts of a pleasure cruise."

 

Kipp Norman added:

"We take the work seriously, but ourselves decidedly less so. The thing I've always loved most about filmmaking is that it's a team sport - it comes down to people, and their abilities to lift one another up throughout the process. Our intention is to create a place where we can rise together. Dreamboat means traveling to new places with people who share that same sense of adventure."

 

Exemplifying this sentiment is their inaugural Dreamboat production: a collaboration with Deep Eddy Vodka and agency McGarrah Jessee. Staying true to their belief in collaboration and partnering with the right people, Dreamboat united a team that included director Jessica Batson, who the Dreamboat team knew through her celebrated short film "Exquisite Things." The result is a spot that is imaginative, vibrant, and joyful. 

Long-time partners, EP Peter Williams and The Norman Brothers have been a part of campaigns for State Farm, Anheuser-Busch, Kraft, Nintendo, Porsche, Subway, Floor & Decor.

Williams noted:

"We always strive for the kind of collaboration that comes from really listening and asking meaningful questions. It’s about being additive versus competing over ideas, to create an environment where people get enjoyment out of the process. We believe that’s where the best work thrives, and this first project expresses it perfectly."

 

Also central to the Dreamboat team is Analu Moscoso, a Brazilian-born Associate Producer who is known by crew, directors and clients alike for being passionate, energetic, and fearless. Dreamboat is represented by Lisa G. & Co. + Blush on the West Coast, Perry Tongate in Texas, Sharon Swanson in the Midwest, and Kelly Flint and Sarah Lange from New York-based firm Strike-This for the East and Southeast.
