Truth in Advertising - the full 12-minute short film. I realize that portions of this have been around for a while, but this is the whole thing (featuring Colin Mochrie of "Whose Line Is It Anyway?"). Funny stuff.

  • I especially liked section 3 with the director. It seems to true of so much media these days, not just advertising.
  • I think I meant "too true"
  • I hadn't seen the whole thing, just snippets a few years ago when I was used to be the client. It pretty much was how it went down. I would love to quote lines from this while on jobs -- uncomfortable drinks with the client?

  • I think you are right there schark. I do think it can cross over to a lot of different media involving the meeting of creatives and management. And I pretty much fell off my chair when they said that they had to include the teddy bear logo. I'm sure I've been in situations almost exactly similar.
