Title: “1994 advertisements”
This is an advertisement for Trinity Western University’s “Insight 94” event. This event is a precursor to “View Days”. Students are invited to spend two days on campus and attend a Christian rock concert. At [1:02] there is an additional advertisement for “The Spirit Victory '94”, a Christian rock concert, featuring Keith Brown, to be held on campus. The event seems to be sponsored by the TWU Student Association. Both spots feature music - possibly by Keith Brown - in the background. [Based on the cassette label, it's likely these ads were to run on The Bridge, a Christian radio station.]
