    that kid is adorable. and i love the steely sound when he first "unsheaths" the penny. Remember when money was that badass to you? god.

    Excellent work! Well-conceived, designed, directed, shot and edited. Great flow of images and a clear and direct dramatic arc.

    The savings story is captivating. The production is superb and makes me want to see more. And to save with Wachovia!

    Wow, guys, this is top-shelf!!
    I love the amazing story...and the music and sound design are par excellence, as well as the adorable young actor. Just don't understand one thing--why a shot of the fighter plane just before the end?

    (btw, don't worry about all the "negative" votes if you get them, someone with less talent is spamming all the VCAMs with "VOTE DOWN" votes and I'm sure the Current honchos are gonna pay little to no attention.)

    Way to go!

    this kid is such a cutie!! I love it, what a great commercial! You're all rock stars!

    I think that the idea is a good one and will appeal to children to show that saving will help them get what they desire.

    This is a fascinating idea and would gain the interest of everyone that watches it, definately encourages saving and made me look up the bank and how to open an account.

    Where can I open up an account? Top notch artistic marketing!

    Awesome! Really, guys. I'm going to put a penny in the first pig I see. But seriously, Wachovia--it makes banking feel adventurous and fun (a tough sell).

    I want to be a penny. Not a tree, a penny.

    very cute! Well done and imaginative and the kid was great :)

    appeals to the hopeful kid in all of us - remember your first bank and how important a small amount was?
    apparently wachovia does too!

    I love the exploding piggy bank! I wish that could happen to me... Every kid's (and adult's...) dream. Captured beautifully. Awesome job!
