What Would You Do For a Klondike Bar?

So, there’s this contest, you see, where people create ‘commercials’ on the subject of ‘What Would You Do For a Klondike Bar?’

My group and I did a couple of commercials, and one of them I’m wanting to share here, and hopefully, garner some more votes. So let’s get that out of the way first:

What did I do on this video? Well, I wrote, directed, shot, edited, color graded, sound designed and did the motion graphics work. Oh, I also sculpted/built the big, huge, stinkin Klondike bar, with the help of Lesley Sullivan and Angela Maldonado.

John Gholson does the amazing voice for the Klondike, and he initially had the concept of a ‘giant klondike bar.’ Jennifer Blair plays the lovely lady who is doing all the deeds, and Paul Gandersman plays the dumped fiance.

Lesley Sullivan and Peter Yoder produced this, which means they busted their ass making sure everything went well. Lesley made the ’skirt’ for the klondike, which looks so much like foil it blows my mind.

Angela oversaw the ADR session, giving me the CLEANEST audio I’ve ever gotten. It was amazing.

Alright. Go watch the video. And vote! OH, and if you want to see a higher quality version, just ask me. I’ve got one, I’m just keeping it on the downlow until the voting period is over :D
