James Franco: Seven For All Mankind Jeans Campaign

Is there anything this man won't do?  James Franco is California Dreamin' in one of his latest projects. The actor/PhD student/artist/spokesperson/photographer/soap star/producer/director, is an official ad man.  The print ads for Seven for All Mankind jeans have finally surfaced and are making their rounds online.  His video vignettes (a series of 10) will be released weekly on Seven For All Man Kind's YouTube channel beginning February 15th.

James and creative agency Lipman joined forces to create this new campaign that was shot over three days in December and includes young stars, model Lily Donaldson, Henry Hopper (son of late Dennis Hopper) and Nathalie Love.

According to Franco, "The videos have a vintage feel to them. They feel like they are from a different era, which I think really fits with the new line that Seven had in the shoot -- a lot of cool denim tops and jeans.  "We shot right on the beach and drove up the Pacific Coast Highway, so I guess you could say it's a vintage 1970's California dreamy feel."

Here's a behind the scenes video for Seven For All Mankind.

I love this guy!
