Had a message recently asking for some more behind the scene stuff and I thought, yeah I'd love too!
Today, I finished writing the first draft for a TV commercial. The client is a broadband provider in the south of the UK and one of our biggest clients. Hopefully the script gets locked in soon, I'll be directing this ad in May. I'll post a behind the scenes video to Patreon from the day. Hopefully it'll be interesting for some of you guys.
I try to make all my commercials feel like lived in worlds, very organic and relatable. I want the viewers to forget about reality for a few moments and I always tend to have stories with multiple meanings through out. Bit of a subtext guy. The only downside is you have to somehow bring it back to the client and their brand. It's the job after all.
I also put up the Big Gold belt which I've had recently in my videos. I had it laying over the back of the sofa but not any more, I want my larger set dressing props to be on display.
I would love to get my hands on a few others items but not sure where I'd put them, the curse of being in the loft. Love to hear your thoughts on them?
They are:
Aliens full size Pulse Rifle Replica
Warhammer 40K Bolter Replica
Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver Sword Replica
You can also see some of my cabinet items in the photo. Some I've picked up and others have been gifts from family and friends.
P.S.> I know... It's not raining in the UK!
