You Always Make Me Smile
As part of its campaign for Holiday Inn, McCann New York teamed up with us students (from the BYU AdLab) to create this music video for Kyle Andrews' You Always Make Me Smile.
McCann & Holiday Inn formed a record label, StayU Music, to "produce, distribute, promote and share revenue from" Andrews' original track, which was featured in the ad campaign that broke in the spring of 2010.
We, the students, conceived, storyboarded and worked with BYU film students to shoot the three-minute music video during the world's largest water balloon fight, which we planned. 48 solid hours of filling ballons. By hand. 10 cameras. 4,000 extras.
Epic. On an epic scale. More ______(insert synonym for epic) than epic itself.
By the way... it has well over a million hits... and counting.
