Louis Addesso Jr.
- Producer
With over 15 years of experience representing feature film directors in
the commercial market, Lou has worked with such talented minds as John
Leguizamo, Nick Cassavetes, Chaz Palminteri, Matthew Penn, Gregory
Hoblit, Deran Sarafian, Rod Holcomb, and the late Ted Demme. His
challenge was to convince the ad world to work with long-format
directors in the 30 second venue, which was not an easy task, but was
successfully achieved due to his belief in their talents, and a
persistent work ethic.
The industry knowledge and insight that Lou was able to gain from working with these directors was invaluable, and led him to branch out and create Mission Launch, a representation company with which he applies the same successful concepts to a very small group of actors, giving them the much needed personal direction with their careers. He believes in quality, not quantity, and that formula, mixed with talented and passionate actors, equals work.
Lou is very proud of the impact that the company is already making within the industry, and hopes to continue to expand the roster to include directors, editors, and writers, with the ultimate goal of producing feature films, commercials, and episodic television shows under Mission Launch's umbrella.
