The Power of Cheese

VIDEO #356

Euro Tracks from Euro

Hans Christmas was once the strongest man in the world. Now, he appears in local television commercials advertising for products that appear metaphorically stronger. Well, I had the privilege to watch Hans in action after the shoot. He was furious with the script as he should be. This guy is made of steel and here he is playing with a cheese loaf. Long story short, Hans still has it, he just needs to pay the rent.

I was at the grocery store scanning random products and came across frozen corn dogs. Instantly, I needed them. I thought, there's a commercial here somewhere, no problem. So here you have it... Pocket Dogs. If you think about it, not that you would do this, you could do exactly what this commercial is advertising... they're fully cooked!

The iSANDWICH App Theme Music

The best part of this video was I had a sandwich made after the shoot. I think I'm on to something.... So my buddies and I came up with this idea last summer and thought it'd make for a funny video but forgot all about it until today. So, here it is... the iSANDWICH app for all you "app people." Thanks Alex & Kai for the idea!

The Shopping Cart

Sounds from the distant land of Rainbow Toro

Portland, OR is home to keeping it local and shopping organically. I thought, after finding a shopping cart where Rainbow Toro was 'once said to have lived', maybe I could try making a Super Duper Organic Commercial.

NE Portland Real Time Sound

Paying homage to those clever Corona beer commercials, here's to you Simpler Times Beer, at last, your own commercial! In the marathon of videos from the last several months, I've used quite a bit of sound effects. Today, I am proud to say I have not used one sound effect for this video. It is all true. This is my backyard. These are the sounds that fill the air. It is glorious. It is simpler.

Volkswagon Commercial Song

Playing with toys again on a dirty floor. Now it's time for a good sweeping. Oh, and I apologize ahead of time if this song gets stuck in your head for the rest of the day. I know it's stuck in mine. I should be more careful on my song selection, it could ruin lives.

Song - "Milk Cow Blues" by George Strait

I think I may have just become lactose intolerant after this video. Oh what I will do for a video of the day. Even after hosing off in the yard and a long shower, I smell whole milk. It hurts.

Mantene Bro V

Song - "Sound of Silence" remixed by Gregorian Chant

Sometimes a mans gotta feel sexy too and with the mass variety of products available these days, it isn't hard. I would highly recommend "Mantene Bro V" Shampoo, for him. It leaves the hair silky smooth with a flirt of sass. Best used with the Pacific Ocean.

Song - Subway's Catchy & Annoying Theme

Yen Ha, up on Sandy around 71st, seriously has an amazing $5 vietnamese footlong. Couldn't resist a spoof on the Subway commercial after seeing the handwritten advertisement in the bar. Kim executive produced the shoot (thanks for picking up the tab) and Katana coordinated and directed leaving me to simply shoot. Production budget... you guessed it... 5 bucks.

I would never expect anyone to have seen the Taco Bell commercial I am mocking so for those who aren't savvy to our pop culture these days, here's your link: Bad, but effective Taco Bell Ad. The funniest part of this is, once again, I get caught in the act as Katana gets home from working all day. This is work too, right?

Target... For Him

Recently found out why Target is so addicting... the carts! It doesn't hurt to visit a happy hour before hand, just make sure you're not over the limit for driving the cart. Good camera work sweets!
