  • My first national ad!

    On The Border – Hunger Attack

    Yes, the header is correct.  This was my very first national ad/commercial I did back when I was freelancing for Energy BBDO in Chicago.  But this ad never came out on TV.  It came on movie theaters across the country that was near a On The Border Restaurant.  It’s one of those commercials where it comes on before the previews of the movie.  If you didn’t get the ad, the reference goes out to the movie, JAWS. Unfortunately, I never got to see it in real time because I never gone to a theater that was near the restaurant.  And at the time, On The Border wasn’t in Chicago (that I know of) or New York where I went shortly after freelancing in Chicago.  Every time I went to the movie theater and was waiting for the movie to come on, I would always wonder if it would come on, even though I knew it wasn’t near the restaurant.  I’m not sure how I would feel if I were to actually see it come out.  It would probably be a mini-version of the experience of what I hear when a musician first hear their very first hit single on the radio.  I’m not sure how long the ad lasted in the theaters but if you ever seen it, let me know!
