Well after holding the pole position for the past decade VSA redesigned their cards. What do you think? I am not positive of the stock, but I believe the first version is on Neenah Classic Crest Epic Black printed letterpress with a silver metallic ink.

UNDERLAND featuring the ballads of Nick Cave

We  recently finished up a :30 spot for Artown featuring UNDERLAND by Steven Petronio performing at Grand Sierra Resort.

Thanks to KNPB, Steven Petronio’s folks and Adrenaline Sound you would never guess the Frankenstein(ian) measures needed to create a commerical that is true to form. If you like Nick Cave or modern dance you should check it out.

I can’t wait to go! See you there.
p.s. Get a babysitter, mature audiences only.
