The graduate call

   

Here is a fun and very well edited video shot in the JWT London offices.  No wonder why it is the post of the day on Craig Davis' blog, The Good Stuff. Once again, apparently -like on the previous OMB mentioned on mindblob-, no money or big production, just a bunch of motivated grads led by Musa Tariq. His description of the video on Vimeo says it all :

"We (the graduates who joined last year straight out of uni) had an idea one day after work... and thought why not!"

Also, check this other film from Musa Tariq on his Vimeo page, entitled: "A Day In The Life Of Me". Here is what he says about it :

"I was asked recently what the highs and lows of my job were at JWT... Well one of the highs was the fact that if you ever had an opinion or a suggestion, people would ask you to go do it! The following video was part of an idea we had, it was to show a client how someone my age interacts with technology on a day to day basis! ..."

Basically, I like to see positive energy leading a simple idea into reality. It spreads that same positive energy outside the office walls and is insightful for whoever is "listening". Well, of course, the goal here is obviously to recruit new grads. The last first dot to connect to is JWT London's website frontpage (*) where  the intention appears loud and clear.

Maybe our good friend Sacrum should try to apply there.

PS :  (*) this link will probably not be relevant to this post after november 7th - end of the call for grads.

Fun stuff. Thanks for sharing. (BTW, how hours went into its production?)

Luc,

Once again, something on your blog has made my day. Where does all this energy and creativity go as we age? I have an answer but this is a question best left for speculation.

Nice blog man!

Roger,
I'll try to find out about the time spent to make this film. My take is that there are quite a few hours of editing and soundtrack mix.

Lewis,
Glad this made your day, really. Maybe age leads to spotting energy in others... as long as it goes with encouragements, I'm OK with it.

Christopher,
Nice to see you here! Welcome to mindblob. I'm pleased you like the blob. ; )
