DALLAS Tony Scott has closed Urban Village Advertising.

Scott opened his Dallas agency, which specialized in African American and urban advertising, five years ago.

The shop, which at one point had five employees, concentrated primarily on project work. Among its largest clients was Pro-Line International, a hair-care products manufacturer that hired the agency to handle regional advertising.

Scott attributed the closure of his shop to the economic slowdown and to consolidation in the segment, largely through acquisitions by large holding companies.
