In many ways a pitch is an agency advertising itself and its creativity to get work, but beyond that they use awards and popular work to prove they can cut it.<BR/><BR/>It's like being a comedian. You don't walk on stage and say "I'm funny!" People will tell you to piss off. If you -make- them laugh though they'll say "he's funny!" which is the way round you want.<BR/><BR/>So it's not that they can't, it's just that they don't need to. Similarly with self-promotion films, it's all well and good making one but how do people see it unless you just SPAM people with it or get it linked to on bLogs? And if you're doing that you might as well make a good portfolio site and do the same, or at least put a URL at the end of the film. In many ways, despite the message, the video fails at advertising as people are more likely to check out a link then cold-call an Email address.

The statement says ‘THE BEST creatives STAY wild at heart’, and then the guy invites you (probably not you) to work with him to keep your instincts sharp. Why? Because he wants to be among the very fucking best. That’s why. That’s what it shows about him: ambition. And it shows that he wants to work with someone that aims as high as he, I reckon. Someone prepared to go the extra mile. Where the gold is. Only a twat can’t understand it for fuck’s sake.<BR/><BR/>Now… you can argue that this video don’t make you want to dump your partner, but then my question is, have you ever seen an advert for this kind of brief that made you think that? Tough brief don’t you think? Most of the time, not even the award winning ads, for real brands, change your behaviour just like that.<BR/>I believe that to be willing to dump a partner, you need to see a good portfolio first. And by that I mean, a book with lots of different and witty thoughts. Unless, of course, you hate the fucking bastard and want to run away from him a.s.a.p.<BR/><BR/>I hate to play the attorney, but let me just tell you that these kind of ads are made only to make people like you and me aware that there is a bloke out there currently looking for a creative partner. And I believe we all know how tough that search can be. The idea may not be stellar, but it’s funny and it works. And for this kind of brief funny is as good as you will ever gonna get. It’s like when agencies advertise themselves. It doesn’t matter how good the agency might be, their own adverts somehow never get to the same level as their work. And when I say this, I mean very dull ads (most of the time not even funny), against outstanding work for other brands. Even the best agencies have this problem. And why is that? Because it’s very tricky to advertise creativity without showing your portfolio or sounding too arrogant. And when you do that, that’s when the advert starts to get dull. But hey, this would never happen to you. You are all fucking mavericks, that’s what you are! And the problem about advertising agencies advertising themselves and all the creative minds that ever crossed this world and had that kind of brief is that, in the end of the day, they never got the chance to work with mavericks such as yourselves. You juniors fucking make me laugh.<BR/><BR/>I rest my case. But before I go I just want to say that if you want to judge the guy, do it after seeing his portfolio, only then, otherwise you are just being total twats. Specially if you guys don’t even have a partner.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35498698.post-6571170016194876032008-09-07T07:07:00.000-06:002008-09-07T07:07:00.000-06:00Why is everyone so viscious, give the guy a break....Why is everyone so viscious, give the guy a break. he makes a bad video so what, good on him for making a video - they can only get better from now. <BR/>If he is as bad as everyone says, then he'd probably have just as bad/good a chance of getting a partner any other way, but at least he is being proactive.<BR/>any why on earth did someone say Jai is being Mr Nice guy, do you really expect him to start laying into his good mate's video?<BR/>+ Would you want that, I think its much better he gives a different perspective than all the haters anyway.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35498698.post-14781972764821062182008-09-06T15:05:00.000-06:002008-09-06T15:05:00.000-06:00Fcuk me, that video is the funniest thing I've see...Fcuk me, that video is the funniest thing I've seen in ages.
