DID YOU SEE THE BUS?

we're just back from a 12 day bus trip around this great big land of ours.

Epoch films, National Voice and advertising agency, Wieden + Kennedy 12 photographed and filmed footage for an advertising campaign that will be used to promote voter education and to recruit volunteers for the 2004 election nationwide.

we clocked about 4500 miles and stayed true to quite a difficult road schedule:

June 11 - New York, NY
June 12 ñ Pittsburgh, PA
June 13 ñ Columbus, OH
June 14 ñ Detroit, MI
June 15 ñ Chicago, IL
June 16 ñ Des Moines, IA
June 17 ñ St. Louis, MO
June 18 ñ Little Rock, AK
June 20 ñ New Orleans, LA
June 21 ñ Tallahassee, FLA
June 22 ñ Miami, FLA
June 23 - WRAP PARTY at the Raleigh was a blast!

The project was a success. we met tons of interesting people along the way. shot loads of film. got to know our bus companions sleeping habits, showering needs, eating preferences and oh so so much more...

My hope is that we have made a difference.
It was a fantastic journey...i very am happy to be home (aka off the bus)

stay tuned, more images to come.
