I haven’t been much on watching television lately. I’ve got a lot of shows on my pc right now, and I’d much rather watch uninterrupted programming than subject myself to the crappy commercials stuffed in my tiny little half hour of humor.
I’m surrounded by creativity, for free! Why am I paying to watch uninventive ads, doing nothing to hide the fact that they’re desperately trying to force something on me?
Every semester, I see a handful of projects from the Theatre students here, at VSU. I’d actually pay to see what they could come up with. I see ads all the time with great concepts, but they just don’t follow through right, or they get lazy and just don’t do the concept justice. Viewers should create commercials.
Ah, there’s the idea! Black Turtle Media thought the same thing, and thus they promote amateur and professional producers of commercial-grade advertising. And Black Turtle Media wants your work! They’re currently offering a contest for commercials on the Apple iPhone, Halo 3, and Decision 2008. The winner receives $5,000. I think I’m gonna pass that on to Brian. He’s one of the more prolific in turning out new projects, and I’m sure he wouldn’t mind the opportunity to earn some cash. Besides, he and Josh are always looking for their next project. They can’t just relax!
Everyone is encouraged to submit their own masterpieces, or just vote on the ones you like best. You could be voting on what you have to watch between segments of your favorite prime time drama *serious look*
