A friend of mine tracked down the first TV commercial that I did in Japan (about three years ago). She found it on YouTube, and it's the 15 second cut. I show up at the very end.
The main actor is Nagase Tomoya, one of the more popular members of TOKIO (a boy band) and an A-list star in Japan. He's very down to earth and was a lot of fun to work with.
The product is Lotte Toppo, and it's a type of snack stick with chocolate in the middle. I had to eat about 40 of them during the shoot...
Update: the clip got pulled from Youtube, so I'll repost it here if it reappears over there (and somebody lets me know that it's up again).
