Talk to Ford is a parody of the Ford C-Max "baby" advert in which a man dances around with his baby to give some notion that the C-Max is as equally as comfortable as he is.
The idea for this parody came about during a poker and drink enfused night in which we questioned the sanity of the dad who was throwing his baby around and decided he was on drugs, within the next week this short was made with the collaboration of Mr. Phil Eaton and Rich Cracknell of Geek Pie Productions.
We decided that the father in question was probably high and turned it into an advert for Talk to Frank, a hotline for drug questions and assistance in the UK.
We later sent them the ad to see their response but they sent back a email stating that they do not accept submissions and if we wanted any drug advice to call them ... the cheeky gits.

This is an updated version of the Ballyhoo video that was made in the summer of 2007. This version has had it's own music written for it and has also had about 5 seconds of extra footage added in.
It has also been redone in Adobe After Effects to a much better standard than the original Ballyhoo, with changes only being made in Adobe Premiere Elements.
The reasons for these changes being made is that the video was spotted on YouTube by the Extreme Channel. They have said that they would like to broadcast it on their show, Ex-Tube.
