Deli
"Deli" was filmed in a real sandwich shop - while it was open! Since the spot was filmed in the summer during good weather, the deli served their food on the shop's back deck, while the inside space was full of actors. The actor who played the man behind the counter is also a trial attorney, who did a great job bringing intensity to the scenes. Originally, "Deli" was intended to be more linear - to have a clear-cut beginning, middle, and end, with no gaps. The editor, however, tried something different, putting all the scenes together in a montage. This worked much better, as it matched the quick-paced, staccato intensity of the environment and of what was being said.
