First Morris Bank

In a series of four :10 second spots, designed by Norm Bendell, Buzzco shows why this bank is superior to the big nationwide ones.

I remember that these 4 spots were for a small agency that needed these spots very quickly.  We were still working on cels and shooting film in 1995, so we divided the campaign up-- I believe that Vinny Cafarelli did "Giant", Vinnie Bell did "Red Tape", I did "Layers" and Al Chiarito (who we hadn't worked with in years, but who stopped by the studio and we gave him one) did "Hoops". Al wasn't feeling well, but he wanted to work and he did a fine job, but passed away soon afterwards.  His widow said she was happy he had that chance. Like many animators, he was happiest working.
