Smokin' - Internet Ad

Sometimes sh*# happens - and with this proposed ad, it did :-( The idea was to work something around the slogan of "Bringing the recording studio into your vehicle" - so I came up with the idea of a Bob Marley-esque group transporting into the lead's car. The company loved it; but decided this ad campaign would be too risque for the technology. So it was never officialy colored; had final graphics added - or, of course, released.

The good news was; a long-time film producer thought it was quite funny and I ended up landing a gig on a job that earned me a union card in the editor's guild in Los Angeles.

Not all bad, I suppose!
