Avenida Acceso, the multi-cultural division of Elias Arts, has recently completed original music composition and production for a new campaign promoting the Volkswagen CC.
Avenida Acceso produced original music for a new Volkswagen CC TV spot (a :60 version and a :30 version, each with both English and Spanish VO,) Mike Pandolfo, Creative Director, Composer, and General Manager, Avenida Acceso, said, “For these spots, we had the opportunity to work closely with Creative On Demand on musical direction right from the start. We were able to establish the style and pace of the music before the commercial was even shot. That kind of early collaboration with an agency always makes for great work.”
