Proud dad alert!

Well, the World Cup is finally here and I’m excited to bring to you a fun commercial we made for our friends at Truly. Maybe we didn’t have the budget or star power of the Nike and Adidas ads, but we did score potential Golden Boot winner Weston McKennie and the greatest US President of all-time, Abraham Lincoln, who truly knows how to party. To boot, there’s one particular friendly face who will be familiar to this feed—my boy, @samselis_!  The casting brief called for “handsome as hell” so he was a no-brainer. I didn’t bother telling him he would be expected to lead an entire bar full of fanatics in song, but knowing him like I do, I was confident he could pull it off. So, no, you won’t see @cristiano or @k.mbappe or @leomessi in this ad, but you will see my boy and @west.mckennie and Honest Abe, as well as future famous artist @nmdorr_ and a beautiful bald eagle that you’d never know was computer generated by my freaky talented friends @untold_studios. The 60 second film was edited by another @samselis, my kid brother who can chop a commercial together as artfully as the best of em. The idea was conceived by the GOATS of advertising @KDSP (song lyrics by the Diane Warren of the ad space @brockkirby) and the music bed by my rocking friends @singingserpent. The film was produced by the perennial professionals @imperial.woodpecker. It was directed by the impressively tall and absurdly talented @jasperson and lensed by the master of cinematography himself @malaimarejr_cinematography. @mark_gethin made the picture as pretty as can be. @marylingston saintly suffered me(again) while @marlo_verdin answered everyone’s prayers. Fashionista @katinabananana kitted everyone out, @yiotispanayiotou coiffed them to perfection and make-up queen @jennilclark made Abe Lincoln look way better than his mug on the five dollar bill. The client @truly is truly the best. @mattwithington @mandeyandey @dwwells @j_holla_holla and last but not least, Keith, who justified the healthy chunk of change we were allowed to spend. Even though it wasn’t Nike and Adidas, I hope you find the result to be worth your time. Now let’s go @usmnt! Make our dreams come truly!
