Commercial Break – Commercial Break #207 Kevin T. Willson (Part 2 of 3)

for full episode go here thestream.tv This episode of Commercial Break is not about the face in front of the camera but the guy who sits behind it and makes all the magic happen. Kevin T. Willson, the commercial winning director of the “Crash the Superbowl” Doritos Contest joins the cast of Commercial Break to give us a birds eye view into what commercial directing is all about. Kevin is the genius behind this year’s Superbowl Commercial “Sling Baby”. Kevin has been a repeated finalist in the Doritos Superbowl Contest for several years but in 2011 he won one million dollars (pinky up to mouth Dr. Evil style) for “Sling Baby” and he promises to give it all to Mike and Rebecca for their award winning stream show…eh hem well maybe not any of it but he will bring us free Doritos for the rest of our lives and that is priceless. Learn how to fit seventy bags of Doritos into a casket along with a mini TV. No Kevin did not actually sling a real baby in a sling across someone’s backyard he just figured out how to make it look that way. Rebecca and Mike forget to bring the Doritos to the set but thankfully Erin and David save the day! Rebecca crinkles the crunchiness yumminess of Doritos into her lavalier mike (she’s a real class act).

UPDATE to answer to all comments saying “I would like to see you do that on Android tablet” because I said that Android tablets are better than iPads. Oh fanboys… I would never buy a 400-500$ tablet just to make music. In fact nobody should. You can buy a computer and actually PRODUCE music. Its easier, its better. So you obviously buy a tablet for other uses; Work? Gaming? Entertainment? Doesn’t really matter. Over the last year Android tablets managed to offer more for less money. Just live with it. Garageband on iPad (and mac) is a very nice program and YES we will not see something like that on Android soon. But it is still just a toy. If it was not a toy, Apple would not design and sell Logic, which is a professional DAW. So buy a 400-500$ toy? Hmmm… No thanks. If you want to produce music get a computer. Even with freeware software you will get better results. If you want a tablet for actual tablet uses (work, gaming, entertainment) get an Android tablet. So…. This is me creating a jam track with apple’s Garageband app for the ipad and then shredding a guitar solo over it! I am sorry about the bad video quality, but i could not find a way to record ipad’s screen in a fast framerate. Anyway i believe you will get the idea. Hope you enjoy!
