Edgewood, NY – May 1, 2021 – Lorraine Gregory Communications, an award-winning full-service design and marketing agency headquartered in Edgewood, NY, announces their merger with another award-winning company, Aurora Productions, Inc.
Headed by Richard Poggioli, the CEO and creative force behind film and video productions for broadcast television, documentaries, and corporate advertisers such as Canon, Honeywell, Island Federal Credit Union, and Kozy Shack, brings a magnitude of expertise that propels the joint venture to the top of the list of agency competitors. Working closely with agencies and marketers, Aurora is a perfect complement to the existing comprehensive services offered by Lorraine Gregory Communications (LGC). Their combined industry knowledge spans 60 plus years of advancing client’s messages. The recent rebrand of Lorraine Gregory Communications was partially in anticipation of the merger of these two powerhouses.
President Benjamin “Jay” Demetriou continues to strengthen the company in terms of elevating the in-house skills and capabilities. Both Jay and founder/CEO Greg Demetriou agree that Rich Poggioli fills an important role in the advancement of the company. “Not only is Rich the consummate professional, but he is also easy to work with.” Internally, Gina Del Vicario, Vice President, has assumed the responsibility of blending the companies and culture. “It is exciting to be working with an award-winning director such as Rich,” said Gina.
“I feel energized with the possibilities. Joining forces with LGC was a natural. The early support I have received here allows me to think about the future and where we can improve so many of the marketing programs assigned to us with film and video. The crew is ready to shoot in the studio, which I love, or on location,” said Rich Poggioli.
As Director of Video Services, Mr. Poggioli will oversee all video projects as well as manage our two NYS Certified Film Production studios. He has envisioned all manner of uses for the 3,500 square foot studio and the more intimate green screen studio.
The merger has enriched the Ask A CEO interview show, hosted by Greg Demetriou, with expert production by LGC Studios, enhanced the Greg’s Corner Office YouTube channel, and upgraded the audio for the podcast version.
Evolution is at the forefront of the company’s mission, and the addition of Aurora Productions solidifies the firm’s commitment to excellence in all of their service lines, well into the future.
“Lorraine Gregory Communications continues to grow and mature as a leading marketing agency. With each important step, expansion, and addition, LGC has firmly planted our flag in the marketplace,” said Jay Demetriou.
The agency has continually added services to meet the varying needs of clients, demonstrating their dedication to providing businesses with the best and most effective solutions. The company is known for staying on top of trends and marketing innovations that drive success for clients.
