Friends aren’t disposable. If your friend is doing drugs or drinking, bring them back. abovetheinfluence.com

This was shot at a landfill about an hour north of Los Angelis. The thing is in LA minors are not avowed to work/film in any dangerous work environment, well not someplace like this. So this was shot twice, once at this toxic landfill without the talent and again with the kids but at another location with a few key garbage pieces imported from the land-fill.

I do quite like it from an image point of view. But some people find this too tame, I don’t particularity think having children among the garbage will help the ad. The photos really push the human thing now idea driven by Photoshop.

  1. I wish they could have got some 18-year-olds that looked young and shot on location, it looks too fake.

    I am a little confused by the set pieces, is this the drug-using youth, or is their friend (who uses drugs) somewhere in the junk?
