Desert-spawned advertising concepts that might make you go blind.
 
 
"Many a small thing has been made large by the right kind of advertising."
-- Mark Twain


There's no place like home.

Background: writing-producing ad/promo for HBO, NBC and UPN.
Here are some of our commercial micros:


Précis. Created three anti-substance-abuse micro stories, using approaches
developed by a world-famous think tank, for several interaction scenarios:
[1] girl-girl/alcohol, [2] boy-boy/marijuana, and [3] boy-girl/cigarettes.

Primary Audience. Teachers who implement the program, aged 25-65, receive
5×9" reminder postcards containing the dates of upcoming training sessions,
with these stories (and commissioned artwork) appearing on the front.

Secondary Audience. Students who participate in the program, aged 11-14,
view the postcards which their teachers post on classroom bulletin boards.

"Yeah, everyone's snickering. We might need to drop her from the pep squad."

"Wanna hit?"

"From your joint? I'll pass, thanks."

"What's the matter? Are you afraid, liddle boy?"

"Absolutely. If one doobie can turn a smart guy like yourself
into this glassy-eyed slacker, then I don't stand a chance."


[3] Bitchin' Wheels

Did his smoke ring become a heart, just before gently caressing her face?
She inhales deeply, eyes closed, hoping to absorb his essence.

But when she coughs, the guys start laughing and saunter along to another car,
leaving her to wonder if he'll ever visit her locker again.


Home is where the heart is.
