Hoover – Wedding

National Commercial

Wow, now this was cool. 250 extras. A chapel and tuxedo parade. The dress took nearly an hour to put on and then as if that wasn’t bad enough, they made me take it off so the bride could wear it for the spot.

Still Airing on KCET & Cable
A fun spot shot during the famed writer’s strike. We all improvised the lines during the auditions and then they basically had us say the same thing during the shoot. Knocked it out in 2 hours and they are still airing it today. Love that.

Ha! Circuit City. I booked this two months before they went bankrupt. I mean, they were making so many cut backs my pants were three inches too short for the shoot. Thank God they still paid.
Netflix – Commercial
Jun 3rd
A 30 campaign that aired from 2006-2008
This was a blast to work on. My first major commercial and I get landed with an accent and a huge amount of dialogue for 30 seconds. But it couldn’t have gone more smoothly. Crew were so cool, the director was hilarious and the sideburns, well the sideburns speak for themselves.
