By day, Erik Candiani works as a Channel 13 creative services guy who makes those wacky 30-second promos.
By night, he's a budding filmmaker trying his hand at TV advertising. He entered a user-generated commercial contest sponsored by Tide - featuring the talking "spot" the company used in its Super Bowl ad.
This week, Candiani learned his ad is one of 10 finalists. Watch it on YouTube (above), but to vote thumbs up or down for Candiani, you must be a registered YouTube user.
His commercial is called "The Date," and it features local actors Brian Rife and Teri Flores. It was shot at Awful Annie's restuarant in Lincoln.
