Check this out: the link to HM Spot.3
What this is is a sneak peek at the unfinished product. It's still going to get audio treatment, color treatment, and some fine-tune editing. I don't think you'll see the time code on the final product, if you know what I mean.
:)
I think it's fun to share what's going on "behind the curtain" when possible. Please compare this version to the final when it appears. We are talking to Fuse TV about airing this. Crazy question (ignore afterward if you don't like how it sits), but if you're interested in helping fund this commercial marketing campaign, let me know. I'm kind of stepping out in faith here with this campaign and some neat things have happened along the way. I'm certainly not opposed to having help in seeing this commercial get on tv. The original plan was to air this on Headbanger's Ball, but our original estimates and then later estimates were both paled by the actual prices quoted (and this from an insider who should've gotten the sweetest deal), which were TWICE what they were a few months ago. I guess they like their airtime there at MTV2. Anyway, those spot opportunities are just too expensive to consider right now. But airing our spots 15 times on Fuse TV is not. I'll share more later.
I've been jamming lately to the new Guitar Hero game -- Aerosmith. It's very good addition to the family.
Okay (finally) on to the Bible. In this 34th chapter of Exodus, God tactfully tells Moses to replace the two tablets that he broke. I wish I could've heard that sentence spoken: "...which you broke." I bet Moses swallowed hard and you'd be able to hear an audible gulp.
God gave him the rest of the day to accomplish this, I'm thinking (because He told Moses to meet Him in the morning with the tablets). Up on the mountain God reminds Moses of His character:
"The Lord, the Lord, the compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness, maintaining love to thousands, and forgiving wickedness, rebellion and sin. Yet He does not leave the guilty unpunished; He punishes the children and their children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation."
He also reveals one of His names -- Jealous.
When Moses comes down, and even later after talking with God, his face radiates God's glory. This freaked out many of the Israelites and even some of Moses' friends were afraid to approach him. He was glowing. Wow.
