Drake Donovan Life Roles

I produced a series of promos for our 80s music feature "Flashback Weekend" using a "Back To The Future" theme.  I was inspired by fellow imaging producers who cut up tv shows, movies and celebrity interviews and inserted themselves into a faux conversation.  This features me as "Doc Brown" speaking to Marty McFly about the weekend promotions at our radio station circa 2003-2004.
