Well, 'tis almost the end of the political season and I've had a little more than my fair share of work in that arena. I helped a local conglomeration of talent, from in front of and behind the camera, put together some viral video ads persuading Arizona voters in a certain direction. They're quite a bit more original and creative than most of the sturm and drang you see on TV these days. I offer them for entertainment value only since most of you aren't in our lovely state:

I wrote the first two and did voice work for all three spots.

Damn, those are very well done and I would have to bet they are (were?) effective. Nice job.

One of my old clients (now deceased) , used to write unconventional political ads for local and state candidates, and we used to have a blast producing them. Those brought back some fond memories.

Really great work Bruce! I especially like the one with the kids. There is one kid that is praying for "no more unfunded federal mandates"! Man you've got some smart kids in your state!!

Great work, indeed, Bruce. I don't imagine political spots get much more fun to do than those.

I love SmartAZvoters.

Very SmartAzz.

Incidentally-- this counts as "work performed" not as "politics on the board".

Why buy the cow when you can have the milk for free? Somehow, somewhere there must be a politico working that into an ad.
I'm in Arizona RIGHT NOW and can attest to a plethora of political ads, one after another, but I haven't heard Bruce on the telly yet. Maybe I don't recognize his "political" read. Wink
Bruce--Those spots are frickin' hilarious. What fun!

Bruce,

Indeed a very creative endeavor! I, too, loved 'smartazvoters'.

Too bad, though, that since I'm an Arizonan, I never got to see these before now.

Kudos!
