But I am impressed with how much money they must have spent to get David Spade on board and build that lavish set. Pretty wild.

We’ve been trending away from pure CGA and more towards a “prosumer” model for creative advertising. Brands are telling us that those big, crazy Heinze-type moves aren’t for them, but they do like the quality they can get from a more focused approach. Not opening it to the whole world to make ridiculous Axe films, but more targeted to people who want to actually make a career in advertising, but who aren’t yet pros.
