Video: Welcome to Detroit | a wild kristen appeared

https://awildkristenappeared.wordpress.com/2013/12/03/video-welcome-to-detroit

A wild kristen appeared. Writing, design, and life, in practice. December 3, 2013. Video: Welcome to Detroit. So I made this advertisement for a marketing class to promote U of M Detroit Center’s new bus, “The Detroit Center Connector,” running between Ann Arbor and Detroit. This is the final 2-minute version of the ad. We chose to create a campaign for the DCC because we believe in The Detroit Center’s goals of cultural exchange and gaining experiences off-campus. Actors: Haley Goldberg and Abby Pilarski.

I told my wife that I wanted to try them with the couscous and she said let’s add some canned diced tomatoes. I said, Why not? 1 cup plain couscous.
