This is the new commercial for the Tony Hawk HuckJam bikes. It’s by Patrick Boivin. He shot it on location at Hawk’s offices in San Diego with 900 Films producing. He shot some stuff here in Montreal as well. It was a true collaborative effort with Hawk acting also.
Jared Prindle from 900 Films says Patrick Boivn’s Teacher of Oz sketch is really what inspired them to bring Patrick aboard for the spot. It is at this same time that Circle of Confusion’s David Alpert sought Patrick to rep him in LA.
Circle of Confusion represent, among others, the Wachowski Brothers (The Matrix Trilogy). And more recently, Circle is behind the Book of Eli starring Denzel Washington. Patrick is now developing projects with the majors.
