Zach Myrow's Summary
Zach started his advertising career at the age of 16 in his hometown of Buffalo, NY. While most of his peers were studying algebra, he was under the covers reading how-to books on the Adobe Creative Suite so he could land an internship at a local ad shop. Consequently, it was his portfolio and his experience that got him into Rochester Institute of Technology, not his math scores.
While completing his bachelor’s degree in Advertising and Public Relations, and his minors in Marketing and Food & Hospitality—that means wine—Zach interned at local ad agencies in Rochester, NY. After realizing copywriting was his true calling, he set his sights on the heavyweight champ Crispin Porter + Bogusky. During his internship at CP+B he focused on interactive copywriting for Burger King and Volkswagen and helped his team earn two Lions, a Pencil and a Clio.
Enticed by interactive and the excitement of New York City, Zach sought an up-coming digital shop in the heart of Manhattan, and two months later arrived at the gold plated Film Center Building where Firstborn grew up.
Currently, Zach is still bad at math, is still infatuated with advertising and lives with his girlfriend in the East Village and her cat, Zucchini. Zach (not Zucchini) enjoys bombing Broadway on his bike, bungee jumping in Australia, scuba diving in Belize, playing bass trombone and watching Top Gear. He spends his days at Noise New York, working on business invention—creating ways for businesses to grow.

Town of Pittsford

The Town of Pittsford, located just outside of Rochester, NY needed a training video for their employees. Through connections at RIT I arranged to write the script, develop the concepts and work in tangent with RIT's ETC as the Executive Producer to film the video.
Working with the Town Supervisor on writing his script was very rewarding. Writing for another person or ghostwriting was very interesting and time intensive as I had to learn the subject and the politics around his position.
The film features sections of personal stories and experiences from town employees and town residents.
