I truly appreciate …
I truly appreciate your comments! We sort of went for the black and white with some color + venetian blinds deal of some of 80s music vids, perhaps not the most characteristic ones. Glad you felt we stuck with the spirit of the novel though… : )

Hey, thank you so much for your comments! We really enjoyed ourselves with this…

Doesn’t have a very 80′s feel, but the sexual and apocalyptic appeals are very true to the spirit of the novel.
Amazingly well done …
Amazingly well done! Very professional and I love the color scheme, I hope this makes the movie. (Also, the end– with her wearing a gas mask but still putting on perfume– makes me grin every time.)

I love how you used the colours!

Y’know in addition …
Y’know in addition to making the spot, I also wrote and performed the music, so your words mean a lot! Thank you & let you know if I put together a longer version of the soundtrack

LOL love the Pink Floyd reference, if you dont know what I’m talking about watch the music video Comfortably Numb by Pink Floyd.

Great video, and I really love some of those shots, but the music is just outstanding.
I can’t get it out of my head now and would love to hear a finished song.
According to an …
According to an account executive at Veidt, he may have left that there himself in that old bomb shelter where we shot the TV spot. But this must’ve been years ago, before the Keene Act… before he bit the dust … poor guy
