Shot on location in Charlotte, NC; SPP produced a furniture footage library for Thomasville Furniture. The three day shoot was shoot in several homes across the area and featured lifestyle scenes of people enjoying their Thomasville Furniture.
This was the eighth project of this size we have produced for Thomasville. It requires a highly-tuned and organized production team to scout locations, manage talent and wardrobe, organize the styling of each room setting all while on location in private homes.
The footage is used by Thomasville and their dealers to create commercials that air throughout the country.

When polled, the vast majority of adults will tell you that they were never taught the things they needed to know about money when they were in school, and, they wished that they had the knowledge to be financially literate at a young age. Talkin’ Money correlates it’s show topics to the National Standards in K-12 Personal Finance Education as created and maintained by the Jump$tart Coalition® for Personal Financial Literacy, a 501-c-3 non-profit organization based in Washington, DC.
The Talkin’ Money video series is an invaluable tool for teaching high school students what they need to know to be financially literate. This project has been a labor of love by Steve Procko, who saw the need for this type of educational video series by chatting with his own teenage daughter. During those evening dinner discussions on life topics, Steve found that basic knowledge about money was sorely lacking in high school. Daughter Melissa later went on to appear in several episodes and work as a production coordinator on Talkin’ Money for her father.
