Jon Hamm is a commanding figure in front of the camera. His character “Don Draper” could sell ice to Eskimos. As an actor playing a tax prep pitchman, he’s not bad either.
There’s drama in his delivery, and that’s what top tier clients pay out the large dinero for—some sizzle to help them stand out in the crowd of over-produced, say nothing spots (that we’re about to see much of during the run-up to Super Bowl Sunday). But let’s not get ahead of ourselves just yet. We have some Hamm to deliver.
H&R Block worked with Fallon Worldwide on this campaign and it shows. The message, timing, sets, casting, and acting—everything is on point.
