I wrote and directed this video for the Pepsi Films London competition.  I won 1st Place in the category, “Livin’ in the Moment” and next week I will go to the BFI London Film Festival for the screening of my commercial.  There I will find out if I will be directing a commercial for Pepsi with a bigger budget.

Thanks to:

Greg Knell for producing the music, acting & getting me a much needed release form at the last moment.

Josh Hissem for providing the beat and the trumpet sound) and for acting.  Also for acting and helping on previous projects.

Sean Smith for acting in this project (although it was cut), eating pizza with me during a pity party, helping on previous projects and providing his computer for some last minute editing.

Dave Simpson for acting for listening to all of my ideas in their early stages and helping me to craft them.  Also for sitting with me while I edited during a small meltdown.

Bill Iannuzzi for acting and being okay with playing a role that I described as, “being the one who ruins everything.”

Andy Depenbrock for acting (though the part was cut)

Claire Simpson for acting & falling off of her bike (not planned) but ended up working very well.

Dan Loch for acting and having a great tractor.

Mr. Simpson for getting the CCAs to me.

Chris Depenbrock for helping in last minute communications.

The family for the support, driving the car with me in the back while we shot the bike scene, exporting the video for me back in New Jersey after my hard drive crashed between JFK and Madrid.

To Mofilm and Pepsi Films for making this possible.
