Farscape viewer creates ad with Mac to promote TV series

The latest issue of AdWeek features an article on David Simerly, a programmer at Apple, who created a television commercial for the Sci-Fi program ‘Farscape’ in hopes of getting the recently canceled show picked up by another network. “I had a digital camcorder and a Mac and Final Cut Pro editing software, so I had all the equipment to put the video together,” he said. The Web-spawned “Save Farscape” movement organized rallies to save the show, where Simerly visited to film fans showing their love for the show. The commercial was placed on cable stations in selected cities across the U.S. and will run through December 1.
