Crossroads
The opening scene sees our main character, a hitcher, asking himself 'which way?' as he stands at a metaphorical desert crossroads. As he ponders which route to take, traffic rushes by and the viewer glimpses some of the interesting characters who offer him a ride.
Lead Flame, Giles Cheetham, said: "When you work with a Director like Walter Stern you just know you will be working on beautiful shots.

For this commercial a great deal of time was spent working up conceptual ideas of how dreamlike and surreal we felt it should be. Walter and I thrashed out some ideas and then had them roughly painted up by the Matte Painters. We placed them into the commercial, often pushing ideas to the extreme and then pairing them back until we felt it worked."
