Description

This ad was created to appear in the 1996 MTV Video Music Awards book. The book that year was outlined to us as the stories and artwork being obtained from the net for the general MTV audience. We felt that there exists a good percent of the MTV audience that does not have access to the Net, and that is what we tried to portray in this ad.
