If you're a fan of Andi9 or any of the Sabado Boys then you just got lucky. Ellips recently released its new commercials featuring Andi9 and the Sabado Boys. If you haven't seen them yet, you can watch the videos at www.ellips.com.ph.
This was an absolute blast to shoot since there were no pretensions, no acting involved. The cast were being true to themselves. The wacky but down-to-earth gang composed of Jimmy Bondoc, Paolo Santos, Luke Mejares, DJ Myke, Top Suzara, and Mike Chan were really wild on the set during the shoot with their crazy musical antics. And Andi9 was not just a 9 but a 10 in all aspects.
By the way, the Ellips website is giving away three iTouch if you join the matchmaking promo. You just need to pick the best Sabado Boy for Andi9.
Now, which do you think is better? The new Andi9 commercials with the Sabado Boys in the Ellips website or the old Andi 9 commercial with Mo Twister and Mojo below?

My Art Director partner and I had a short but exciting break from work last Friday when we represented our agency, Aspac/Law, as guests in Nokia Cinemaiksi. This short-film making challenge, featuring teams from different ad agencies, was held at the G Hotel Manila last October 19 to 20. After listening to speakers that included Jim Libiran (who won Best Picture in Cinemalaya for Tribu), we had the whole night until morning to shoot and edit a 60-second short film. The twist was that we could only use the Nokia N95 cellphone, which has very powerful multimedia capabilities.
Here's the quickie we produced entitled "Bayani":
