What goes into the making of a potentially world famous, career defining and utterly out of this world experience -- with bragging rights forever?
Well that would be when you have the gumption, creativity, and all ‘round tenacity to enter the Doritos SuperBowl commercial contest!
And that's exactly what a handful of very talented Schroon Lakers have done – the first time the bright Hollywood spotlight has shined so brightly on our little hamlet (and Pottersville!!!) since a small movie, known as Marjorie Morningstar, rolled into town in the 1950s.
But the very best part is that the talent involved in this production are all locals.
So how did this very funny commercial get made? Well Mark Wallenwine , one of the filmmakers, shares all with us in this exclusive look.
