Skin Flicks is a company that takes care of some the finest creative imagery such as commercials and motion art pictures. They work with artists and viewers to give them the ultimate viewing experience.

To help promote Skin Flicks a 42 second [preview video](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mint-mobile-mintfomercial) was created that played off the catchy company name. In this video William Tell Overture is played by flicking the skin of a man. It is [hilarious](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/axe-campaign), but hopefully it didn't hurt the poor guy too much.
