Actor and sketch comedian can be seen playing the composer Brahms in a Peter Sellers like turn playing a character much older than himself and with a makeup and accent transformation thats funny and effective. The ads feature a new creative strategy in which parents “feed their kids the arts” with breakfast foods like “Raisin Brahms” and “VanGoghurt” that will help improve math and creative problemsolving skills. The new ads debuted in May at Advertising that Changed a Nation, an exhibit at the New England Institute of Art in Brookline, Massachusetts. The exhibit featured a series of print, outdoor and television ads from the Ad Council’s 65-year history, highlighting the impact of memorable campaigns, including Tom Konkle’s Raisin Brahms Arts Campaign, Wildfire Prevention (Smokey Bear), Crime Prevention (McGruff the Crime Dog), Pollution (The Crying Indian) and Drunk Driving Prevention (“Friends Don’t Let Friends Drive Drunk” and “Buzzed Driving is Drunk Driving”).An overwhelming majority of school superintendents and employers agree that creativity is increasingly important in the workforce and that an arts training is crucial to de-veloping creativity

From production company Pith-e Productions†the new program “Is It Safe aka Safety First” an Internet comedy series using live actors in an all-green screen environment with miniatures. According Pith-e Productions principle producers Tom Konkle and David Beeler, the show plans to use miniatures to create 100 percent of its sets, much like last year’s “300†did with CGI to fashion the Battle of Thermopylae only with frankly, much sillier wigs. A trailer for the first Monty Pythonesque Sin City can be seen at the show website http://www.daveandtom.com. and on veoh.com dailymotion.com youtube.com
