THE IRISH EMBASSY PUB & GRILL

OK George! Studio’s official launch was held on the terrace of the Irish Embassy Pub & Grill, located on Bishop Street in downtown, Montreal. Paul Quinn, the owner of the pub, was appointed the honorary role of Grand Marshall of Montreal’s 193rd St. Patrick’s Parade by the United Irish Societies Of Montreal. We met Paul while filming their official promotional video. As one of the organization’s official spokespeople, he naturally had a lot to say about the Irish culture. A few months later, we produced the Irish Embassy’s promotional video and television broadcast for the restaurant’s guests. The food pictures below are stylistically innovative because they were taken on a black backdrop (as opposed to white), giving the pub’s brand a unique visual signature. Unfortunately, the place burned down a few years following our launch.
