Director Lanre Olabisi sent us the following two spec spots, for Yahoo! and Monster.com. Unlike many website ads, these have the right sensibility for the web! We also applaud the creative teams for going out and shooting the spots, as opposed to sitting around talking about it, or lamenting the fact that they never got made.

"A Better Way"

Lanre says: "It was a cool concept that James Murray had one day while we were brainstorming in NYC and we decided to shoot it. At first he was supposed to be up in a tree, but we thought that a fire escape would work much better."
