About Us
Who We Are
Dapper is a creative agency specializing in tailored media and marketing solutions, and styling companies for success.
We are a network of creatives: directors, producers, web developers and designers. Our passion is delivering well-crafted, custom pieces that are sized perfectly and help our clients look sharp.
From cinematic video and film, commercials and documentaries to stunning websites, collateral materials and branding identity design, our job is to make you look good.
We’ve worked with Fortune 500s to small nonprofits. On PBS documentaries to Travel Channel promos. Feature films like Seabiscuit to local schools and churches. We believe when our clients offer a great product, it’s our job to show them off.
Chief Suit, Jason Parmer
Jason Parmer, Principal – Dapper
“You can’t do it unless you imagine it.” George Lucas
Jason first describes himself as a lifelong dreamer. “What if?” is the fuel of vision and great ideas, and that question has always moved him.
In 2005, when the vision for Dapper was uncovered, it seemed a distant endeavor. A “five-year goal.” But trusting intuition, wise counsel and God’s leading, it became evident that this dream was to become reality now.
Having begun to gather a network of TV/Film, web, design and advertising professionals, Jason embarked on his dream and has never looked back. While white-knuckling at times, this entrepreneurial adventure has made for great stories and even greater clients.
What gets Jason most excited is helping fellow business owners, executives and marketing personnel dream and think outside the box for promoting their businesses. Specializing in a collaborative design process, Jason has found that clients enjoy the creative process as much as we do.
Jason attributes much of his success to the groundwork that was laid by colleagues, educators and mentors over the years. Studying at Los Angeles Film Studies Center, and Asbury University’s cutting edge Media Communications program, Jason learned from some of the best and brightest in the industry, and still holds close relationships there.
With emphases in film and multimedia, the breadth of his training is much like his network: vast.
Jason’s award-winning career has taken him to two Olympic Games. The set of feature films like “Seabiscuit.” Directing a promotion for the Travel Channel. PBS documentary shoots. Robust, database driven websites. Elegant branding design.
“Make no little plans, they have no magic to stir men’s blood and will not be realized. Make big plans; aim high in hope and work, remembering that a noble and logical plan never dies, but long after we are gone will be a living thing.” Lita Bane
What We Do
Simply put, we are a one-stop advertising agency. We will work with you to develop a marketing strategy that shows off your brand’s best strengths. We start with a plan.
That plan depends on the success of various media types, which we also handle in-house. Video & Film production, graphic design, web design, multimedia design and writing are just a few components we utilize to create your unique style.
Crew:
The best results require working with the best in the business. Our network is one of our best assets.
From producers with the DIY Network to winners of public broadcasting’s top honors. Emmy, Telly and Addy award winners. Crew who have worked on Seabiscuit. At multiple Olympic Games. For the Travel Channel. Designers who have worked with Walden Media to produce materials for “The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe.”
We work with the best! Are you talent who is interested in working with us? We’d love to hear from you!
Attracting Your Target
Never forget–your target audience consists of REAL people. Just like you. Question. When was the last time you jumped off the couch after seeing a commercial for “Joe’s Used Car Emporium” to get your $3,000 “Push Pull or Tow!” jalopy? So if a screaming car salesman can’t get you to buy a car, what will? That’s where we come in. We strategize what it takes to attract real people, like you, to use your brand’s product or service.
