29/05/08 Check out the advert we made for Doritos
So on the 14th of May my buddy Adam called me up with some crazy idea he had for an advert for a competition that the people at Doritos were running. (I think he had eaten too many corn chips and freaked out or something) So anyway he sent me his drawings of the little dudes and we made plans for him to record some voices. Then he told me that the deadline was the 18th of May..... We didn't make it through to the finals, but we had fun and from people's reactions i think we raised a few smiles which is good enough for me. check it out
