Director Wayne Craig began working in the commercial industry at the bottom. ‘He was one hell of a P.A.” The one major advantage it gave him was that it allowed him to work with some of the best directors in the world during the late 80’s and early 90’s. Finally after shooting two spec spots Wayne got the chance to direct a ‘real’ commercial. Amazingly, that first ad won a Lion at Cannes. Since that time the awards have piled up. Lucky to have him on the show, and I know you’ll enjoy this chat. Check out this spot for Bauer that we dissect and one about boobs.
