Dante Ariola of MJZ directed this spot which shows a family so captivated by their VIZIO P-Series Ultra HD TV that they don’t even notice that a giant tree has come crashing into their home.
Conceived by a creative ensemble at David&Goliath, the overall campaign features three spots, each with a different situation where complete chaos unfolding around a family won’t break their focus on the TV screen.
