Commercial Example

This commercial test was done for NatureWalk at Seagrove and the opening concept (the cube) did play at the Destin Chamber of Commerce and on broadcast TV as well. This version does not include the music I produced for the final product. I’ve also compressed it down from DVD quality. A compatible video player is required to play the video; I suggest VLC Player.
