TOYOTA

Toyota Dealership spots and content that truly go places starring Jan, our trustworthy Toyota spokesperson. (New car smell not included.)

My role was to concept creative videos from idea to completed spot, create and develop a variety of photographic assets for Toyota dealerships nationwide, as well as make fresh creative based on needs from other sides of Toyota Retail such as ToyotaCare, Parts and Service, Accessories, Toyota Express Maintenance, and Rent-a-Toyota. 

All of this to make you want to vrooooo-vrooooooom straight to your nearest Toyota Dealership and purchase the Toyota of your dreams. #toyotathonison #orisit #imprettysureitis #freetoyotajan2k26
