Philosophy | Fortunately, the extraordinary efforts of our Broadcast Production department and the power of the concept convinced numerous vendors up and down the West Coast to contribute time and resources for a project they believed in. What resulted was "Bus", a powerful, authentic spot shot documentary-style to place the viewer in the shoes of a Rosa Parks-esqe character. |
Problem | The success of this spot was the fact it was produced at all. With a miniscule budget and imposing timeline, the spot called for the re-creation of Montgomery, Alabama in the early 1960s. |
