This is an advertisement for Guinness Stout, a popular beer best known in the Caribbean. So, this ad is currently in airwaves over there. However, I’m bring this ad to the mainland, because this ad was done by International Spoken Word Artist Ainsly Burrows. I saw this ad and the mixture of animation and intensity in the eyes of Burrows, along with his movement shows that Spoken Word and Poetry is an art form. Even thought it’s short, it’s powerful and encourage you to “reach for greatness” (and a plug for the sponsor)! Check out the video and if you want to know more about this man, check out his MySpace page and his YouTube Channel.
