On the clubstogie.com main page, I noticed that Camacho was putting on a contest! Well, heck yea I'm in! Write, direct and produce an original 30-60 second commercial hyping the Camacho Corojo 10th Anni...I'm in!

So I've acquired the footage, edit it down, do some post....then I go check the website...and the contest got cancelled due to low participation. Well, crap.

Ok, so I know that the contest got cancelled - but I had already invested time, money, and effort into the whole affair that it seemed a waste NOT to finish it.

So I decided to finish it...well, 99.5% finished. I skimped on the final voice-overs and instead of having either a.) each actor to do their own voice, or b.) bring in a guy that does voice work for me from time to time - I decided to do it myself (with my unflatteringly FLAT voice) ... but you get the idea all the same! I also didn't do any post-production color correction.

Was damn fun doing it and atleast I was able to justify buying TWO BOXES of the Camacho 10th's (which by the way is one damn fine cigar!!!)

Turns out, that they liked it and put up on their site and notified me that I got some cigars coming my way! Woohoo! You can check it here.
