Hi All -
Many of you already know me (some for over a decade!), from this site.
Briefly, I have been a top national TV commercial director/cameraman for over thirty years. I've won a Clio and a host of other national and international awards and most of you know my work: (Juan Valdez, Time Magazine, McDonalds, etc.) (www.VictorMiltAssociates.com)
Times change.
National TV advertising is down and the internet is KING.
And to get a "hit" on the internet, you've got to produce Cheap, Fast and (I think) OUTRAGEOUS(ly).
So would you take a few moments to check out one of my latest webermercials and comment here on what you think?
SPOILER ALERT - BAD WORDS (we definitely added some profanity in keeping with what have become the "norm" on cable television. If you don't like naughty words - Please Don't Watch! The last thing I want is to offend any of the readers here.
To keep this "on point"... the spot was shot with a portable greenscreen, in someone's office, in about a half hour and (like EVERYTHING I DO, posted completely in Vegas 10). I cut the greenscreen with total ease and was amazed, since it was a nasty lighting situation. Furthermore, we changed the end shot and while the first scene was shot entirely with daylight CFL's the last shot was done entirely with incandescent lights. There were clear discrepancies in the original footage, but I'm pretty happy with the end results.
Check it out:

ps - if you like the spot, would you also pass it on to your usual "joke" list of friends. We can use all the hits we can get. If not - post your comments here and I'll seriously consider or explain our choices.
