Welcome to Tellwell’s weekly Plog (photo-blog)!

It’s the last week before the Tellwell team settles down for a long winter’s nap, but we still found time to celebrate a birthday, unbox some goodies, and share a toast to another year of impactful storytelling.

The image shows a room full of people wearing matching green sweaters with their backs to the camera while they play a video game on a large TV at the front of the room.

This week’s writer

Hi, friends – it’s your old pal Lucas. Long-time reader and first-time writer of the Plog! I’m the Lead Project Manager ‘round these parts. When I’m not out on a film shoot, you can usually find me planning a film shoot at the “mega desk”, which I share with Senior Film Producer Duncan.

Matt Prigge: aging like a fine wine

Age is the only timeline this man can’t edit. Our incredible Lead Editor is a Christmas baby, so the Tellwell team celebrated with Matt a week early with a scrumptious smorgasbord of donuts and a generous amount of editing fuel (AKA coffee). Happy Birthday, Matt!

The photo portrays a man leaning on a counter holding a sign that reads “Happy Birthday, Matt”. An open box full of various donuts is resting on the counter.
The photo shows three smiling people gathered around a kitchen counter. One of the people is holding a sign that reads “Happy Birthday, Matt”. He is also wearing a colorful cone-shaped birthday hat.

A merch-needed refresh

If you know anything about the Tellwell crew, you know that we love fresh merch. Many of us have whole sections in our closets devoted to Tellwell gear for all seasons. With the snow flying outside, it was a perfect week to unbox our latest and greatest winter gear, featuring our extra special 10th-anniversary logo!

Office Pup-ervisor

My little Dipper made an appearance at the office this week to provide oversight on some big projects that are in the works. He doesn’t say much, but nothing goes out the door without his paw-print of approval.

The photo shows a dog looking up at the camera with its mouth slightly open. The dog is mostly black with white paws and a pleasant expression.

Mimosas, Merriment, and Mario Kart

Before slamming our laptops shut until 2025, the whole team gathered for a holiday celebration where we feasted on a breakfast buffet, opened gifts from Santa (Max), and engaged in a ferociously competitive Mario Kart battle royale.

The image shows three people smiling at the camera while they serve breakfast food from a large buffet. They are wearing matching green sweaters that read “Tellwell” across the chest.

Seeya later, 2024!

As we close on this amazing year, we want to give a sincere thank you to everyone that has supported us along the way. We couldn’t do what we do without you and for that, we are beyond grateful! So cheers to 2024 and we can’t wait to see what is in store in 2025. Here’s to the stories waiting to be told! Happy Holidays! 🥂

That’s a wrap on 2024! Keep an eye out for our next Plog, coming in the new year!

Reminder: Our team takes a week each winter to RElax, REfresh, and REcharge with family and friends, known as our annual REweek. This year, 12pm December 20 through January 1 is our “REweek.” So we will be out of office until then, but we will be right back at it on January 2. See you then!
