Tom's Commercials Thread!
« on: July 18, 2014, 03:42:07 PM »
Haven't seen a thread for the TV spots Tom has done, so I figured I'd start one. This page is updated whenever a new commercial he's directed has been released. That page also shows his other directorial releases, including the music videos and the Hodgman book trailer.

So far he's done State Farm, Hary's, and the latest is a Heineken spot with Neil Patrick Harris.

He directed a Barnes & Noble commercial that aired during November/December 2013.

You can find some of Tom's other directorial work at the Production Company Productions website.

Did not know this was one of Tom's! Cheers for the link. I remember seeing it air all the time.

Also I found a behind-the-scenes for the Heineken ad and ran into someone we know.

Loved the play on the "drink beer, don't drink beer" paradox.

As well as the fourth wall looking kind of wobbly.

The Heineken ad campaign is ALL OVER my Twitter feed as the sponsored Tweets. I see them every time I check Twitter on the mobile app. Always a link to one of Tom's NPH spots. It's getting great TV airtime too.

I had to walk past an advertising class at my University the other day and I swear I heard the teacher say, "Okay, now we're going to watch this ad that cleverly mocks laws against drinking in commercials."

So...Tom's commercial being used in classes?
