I went to the Levis site (http://www.us.levi.com) and found you can watch those commercials online (go to the Commercials page), but I can't find any credits info regarding the clips. Convergence Media Group (http://www.convergencemediagroup.com) does Levis's web stuff, but I can't tell if they're also in charge of those ads. Anyway the commercials are _really_ well done. Yeah, they are corporate commercials, but they're pretty artfully done and definitely trying to appeal to an IDM type crowd. One of them ("Kiss") reminds me a lot of Aphex's "On' video.
