Concept:
We cast our actors for their uniquely beautiful characteristics both inside and out (like all Deep Eddy Vodkas). Then we stuck them on blind dates with phony posers (or those other flavored vodkas out
there), and it is not until they meet each other that the night transforms into something real (much like Deep Eddy's all natural ingredients) which results in fun good times had by all.

Quote:
We chose to produce this spot as we felt it really represents all aspects of the Deep Eddy brand. We created avatars to represent Deep Eddy Vodka & Deep Eddy Ruby Red. As filmmakers we love using symbolism in story and we wanted to bring that same love of the use of symbolism to our commercial spot and have our characters be symbolic of our product.
