It's finally here! Last fall Alex Carter, Cody Jones, and I got together to assemble a team to produce and post-produce Alex's spec commercial. We filmed it in one day last fall and finished post-production in mid-December. We tried connecting with Gillette to see what they thought about the spot we made, but we didn't hear back from them. 😢
But we didn't really expect to, either.
So now we're bringing the spec to you to see what you think AND to learn more about Alex's idea, the issues we had in production in post-production, and what we learned from making our very first big brand commercial on spec.
