Commercial For DVDs Ready To Go

Last Friday I brought Aria</a></a>[info]blissful_kaos  over to the Dept 13 studio, where we shot the 30-second commercial spot for my DVDs. Co-producer Herb Henderson</a></a>[info]dept13  worked his magic and we ended up with a pretty slick little ad, which I'll be delivering early next week to the Comcast sales rep, for scheduling in the Atlanta area. Dolores French dropped by to watch while we worked, and ultimately we finished shooting, editing, adding titles and music within 6 hours.

Aria and I each have a couple of lines in the commercial, which mostly utilizes short clips from the movies.

The ad will run in several different zones in the Atlanta area for 5 weeks and since I was able to accomplish "Phase One" well within my budget, it'll definitely be going on to Dallas and New York (Lower Manhattan) after the Atlanta campaign. Other cities to follow: Houston and Denver...then Chicago and Philadelphia...more later.

one time, months ago, you were advertising your DVDs on here and i said something like "someday, when i get a job, and some money..."

Well now i have a job, and (a little) extra money, and am in need of cool shit to entertain myself with. But the "buy now" button for the 'Both DVDs' option doesn't seem to be working! oh cruel fate. haha.

Thanks for the heads-up, but it seems to be working just fine right now...must've been some kind of glitch or something...

Yeah, i dunno. I wouldn't rule out my old-ass computer just being cranky either. Either way, all is well.
