[Spridgets] My Midget, on TV

[Steven Michelsen]

About a month ago, my Midget was in a film shoot - a commercial for NYU
Langone Medical Center.   JUST A MOMENT AGO, I saw the commercial on TV for
the first time!   It's probably just playing in the greater New York area,
but anyway.

 

It depicts a couple leaving the church after getting married.  There's a
sight gag involved - the groom is a full foot shorter than the bride.   It's
shot in black and white.   The soundtrack is the song, "This Thing Called
Love".  There's a bunch of text superimposed, delivering no doubt some very
important health information, but this time at least I didn't read a word of
it!   You can see the car for a just a moment parked at the curb, then the
last shot is a closeup of the couple getting into the car, shot through the
windshield.  

 

Needless to say I am super excited about it.  I have a "google alert" set up
that will hopefully tell me when the commercial appears somewhere online.
If someone sees it online please post a link!

 

Here are photos that I took at the shoot that day.

After the shoot, I shot a 360VR video of me in the Midget, that I shot as I
was driving away up Park Ave.  Watch it in any browser, other than internet
explorer.  You can drag the image around with your mouse to look all around.
