Composer Brian Banks Writes Light Opera for Ogilvy and Suave |
|
 |
SANTA MONICA, CA - May 8, 2007 - Brian Banks, owner and creative director of LA/London based Ear to Ear Music was called on by Ogilvy/Chicago to write a light opera for their client Suave. The spot takes us on the life journey of a busy woman who has let children, running errands and cooking dinner come before taking care of her own needs. Suave is there to help the busy mom get her groove back. "The spot has many fast cuts to visually tell the story of the ups and downs of being a mom. The pictures go by quickly and it was my job to force you to look and feel so you could really identify with the woman. By the end of the spot, her hair looks beautiful, and the music is right there supporting her as she regains control of her life". The spot broke in April and is running nationally.
