Fake Commercials

Fake ads for your movie.

Shot on VHS, written like it's 2am on a channel nobody admits to watching. Drop them into a film, a background TV, a scene transition — whatever the scene needs. Licensed for film and commercial use. Get in touch and we’ll work out terms.

New spots get added as they're shot. Each is licensed individually. If you need one for a specific scene, a custom shoot is often quicker.

Licensing

Licensing · per production

What you get

  • A signed release covering your production, delivered with the files.
  • Use in festival, streaming, broadcast and theatrical work.
  • Worldwide, in perpetuity, no renewal.
  • Master files in ProRes and H.264, 4:3, VHS-sourced.
  • Cut, crop, re-time, re-score, degrade further — do what the scene needs.

Credit is required

Every spot requires a credit for Dane in your production's credits, linked to IMDb so it registers to the right person. That's the one condition on every spot. It costs you a line and it's how these keep getting made.

What you can't do

  • Resell or redistribute the spots as stock footage.
  • Use them to imply a real business endorses your production.
  • Register them, or a cut of them, as your own work.

Custom spots
