A commercial I produced ran locally during Super Bowl!

Congrats!
As Mao once said, during the long march troubles, "Even the longest march starts with one step."
Keep it up!
:)

did you have a blow-horn and get to yell at all the actors? that would be cool

No horn....but nice catered food. Good people. I can't say the women are very good looking up here. I remember when I had my agency in Dallas (mostly corporate stuff for Ericsson and TI) we would get some seriously beautiful women lined up to audition. I miss that!

Never say never. You would be surprised how many people have made it big here in NYC coming from small towns! I enjoy meeting them and listening to their stories. You have the talent and experience you should give it a try.Doritos had a competition for independent commericals, and if I am not mistaken the 3 finalists' commercials were the ones we watched. Careerbuilder.com also had a competition and the 3 finalists each got $100,000. I dont know how much the Doritos winner got.

thanks, dallascowboyfanboy. I've won some gigs in mid-level markets, but it gets tougher every year. Those competitions are tough...because you can put so much work in and end up with nothing. I have another cousin who won a $100K prize with HBO for a documentary (http://www.deathoftwosons.com/bios.html). I'm too lazy to do that at this point in my career.

how much of this were you responsible for? Were you involved in the shoot and the edit?

theebs I really did the lions share on that project. I started with the concept and wrote all the script. I worked up 3d storyboards where 3d actors were positioned to demonstrate the marks for each shot. The ad agency guy hired and directed the talent...then it was all my 3d/CG work from there on. I didn't do much on the audio.The key was to really plan out the angles so I could make sure I could marry the live action to my 3d scenes. The video shoot was 100% green screen. There was no set except for what was built in 3d. It was a lot of fun and a lot of work. Both.

Thanks for the kind words, everyone!

So yours was the "how quick do you click" spot? Nice!

Yes, Leon. Actually all the stuff at IceCaveTechnology.com is my work.
