Video showing an animatic of a proposed 50 seconds television commercial for Texas Homecare. The animatic is repeated on the tape for a second time. The label on the tape suggests it was by the advertising agency Boase Massimi Pollitt.

Animatics contain drawings and dialogue to demonstrate the proposed ideas for a commercials, like a storyboard, so that they could be approved, modified or rejected before they filmed an actual commercial.

It features a jingle based on “Our House” by Madness (but another band performs this jingle) and the tag line “Where the prices can’t be beat”. The commercial depicts a family improving their home after shopping at Texas, and promotes specific products.

Duration: 1 minute, 53 seconds.
