Audition specs for Tom Vek's Aroused video: must be beautiful with good lips, a proficient modern dancer, and an artful smoker. This video is the most glamourized depiction of cigarettes I've ever seen. The opponent, Ben Lee, portrays an extremely blatant message in Cigarettes Will Kill You (read the title why don't you?). I like the 90s lighting and Rose McGowan-esque leading lady, and how Ben Lee amps up the severity of his tone by showing that cigarettes will LITERALLY kill you. I felt compelled to post both sides of this figurative double edged sword (or single edged sword for most) to provoke a healthy discussion of this current issue.
