"The Leap" And Companion Specs
Los Angeles
Project Details
Casting a series of high-production-value short spec commercials designed as definitive calling cards for everyone. The centerpiece is a dramatic athletic shoe commercial with a social and humanistic twist. The others are shorter, humorous pieces with a dash of the surreal and some physical movement/dance thrown in. hese videos will showcase the team's ability to deliver world-class aesthetics and technical precision. The production offers a deeply collaborative environment where the team of industry pros and young creatives each have a voice in the creative process. Ultimately, this project serves as a powerful portfolio piece - especially for actors -- to open doors to high-tier, larger-scale commercial work. By executing this vision exactly as intended, the team will create visually beautiful work that proves their collective capabilities to future clients.
