Today we have the second short in a series of films we’re calling The Ten Commandments. This short illustrates commandment number 3: Keep Holy the Sabbath Day. We’ve managed to cram in a little bit of a topical theme this time. Can you figure out what it is? Duuuuh… Hope you enjoy it:

Keep Holy the Sabbath Day was made by 1998 creative and was produced in studio by Global Mechanic. 1998 creative is: Chris Mckinlay, Justin Longoz and Patrick Beechinor.

Stick around, we have more commandment videos on the way.
