Making Old Spice Sausage with Wieden + Kennedy

Ok, I promised a follow up to Friday’s funny video post about making sausage. If you missed it, my point was largely that shooting ads and making commercials is much like making sausage–you love the taste of it, but you’d probably risk losing your appetite if you watched it being made.

That last part of that statement is of course tongue-in-cheek, since learning more about how we make this sort of stuff–as it relates to professional photography and video– is likely a prime reason that this community exists, but hopefully you get my point.

That said, I thought the above vid was a great run-down of some more sausage being made, this time not by me, but rather by the fine folks at Weiden + Kennedy (specifically Craig Allen and Eric Kallman – respect!) This piece is in reference to their Old Spice deodorant commercial that ran during the Superbowl (my fav from that day). Here, they appear on Twit TV with Leo Laporte for the full breakdown. I especially like the lines “…we built half a boat”, “…it’s like a poor man’s roller coaster…” and “…those diamonds are pouring over a fake hand…”

Surprised at all that went into this? It’s never a pretty thing, yet it’s beautiful at the very same time. Enjoy this tasty behind-the-scenes morsel.

    The hotel can be in close proximity to the Miami Beach Convention Center making it practical for businessmen to go to different exhibits and conventions.

    5 square miles (193 square kilometres), and an estimated
    population of 104,494 in the year 2007. A new generation of apologetic authors was
    being published alongside reissues of older titles.

    At the bottom of the new window you can pick each map that you want to load pieces of.

    MapInstall will now build the map sets and send them to the GPS unit or memory card depending on which you chosen. As soon as you have the
    maps on the GPS you can comply with this tutorial to show
    how to hide and show different maps.
