Wasting Time
In a bit of synergistic thinking, NBC and YouTube had a contest for joe schmos to make a 20-second promo for The Office. On a lark, I made one with Scott Brown and Jason Averett (starring me, Scott, Charlie Todd, & Chris Kula).
It didn't win. But the question is why?
Was it because it's not a great idea? And that not-great-idea was not even very well executed?
Or was it because we dared to tackle the inherent racial divide between the American workplace and the so-called National Basketball Association?
I guess NBC doesn't want to deal with real issues in their 20-second promos.
