About Cool Bull. |
Cool Bull Productions is owned and operated by Greg Dohanic.
Founded in 2012, the company began it's operations focusing on independent feature film productions after increased industry interest in the original screenplay A Cowboy's Blood warranted the development of the project with major Hollywood Talent attached.
Beginning in 2014, Cool Bull Productions restructured it's operations and as a result now offers a complete line of advertising & design services for businesses, organizations, community partners, career professionals, and others seeking to tell their own stories through creative marketing solutions. Short and feature length film projects will now be produced under the new division title of Cool Bull Pictures.
Believing that "all good advertising comes from a strong narrative base" Mr. Dohanic has dedicated his individual campaign approach to "finding the personal story (on the surface, in subtext, and everywhere else) that makes each company brand, organizational mission, or professional goal unique to themselves."
Cool Bull looks forward to serving your promotional advertising needs.

The "Cool" (hi)STORY... with no "bull"
It began with a design
Ironically, the company logo was the birth of an assignment in a high school Commercial Art class. As a junior at South Brunswick High School in New Jersey, Greg Dohanic had created the Cool Bull logo as a pencil sketch (pictured at left) for a fictional product aptly called "Cool Bull Beer."
"I thought of the name first - just popped in my head. Then the drawing came pretty natural to me. All of it just fell together, and because I knew I'd never become a real Brew Master in my future but did know that I yearned to make movies for a living, I said to myself that one day I would have my own production company and call it Cool Bull Productions." The rest is history.
Note that the original design sported a scrappy cigarette which has since been changed to the more appropriate cigar chomping Bull we see now. See variations at the top of this page.
