    amazingly, this is, um, how should I say...better than I expected.
  • super spy · 1 year ago
    Better than the 3 minute ad age at the minimum.
  • ischafer · 1 year ago
    That was pretty damn good.
  • Zach O. · 1 year ago
    It is like The Soup for Advertising. Good stuff.

    WTF? Are you all idiots? He's a bigger douche on air than in his writings. And what's up with the jerking around you got Parkinson's or just being flamboyant?

    Matt...
    You will never become RocketBoom, unless you start showing the delectable "C" in her boxers. That I would sign up for. And what the fuck is that douchenozzle Chuck Porter talking shit video clip all about. Where the fuck are the dogs on skateboards, or the exploding Pepsi bottles? c'mon guys, we're in Web 2.0 land now... Ask Julie Roehm!!!

    george, I'd like to see you do a weekly video. But you'd need to take your top off once a year to hook me ( ala Robin Byrd).

    Matt ...
    Great idea. AS should expand on it. BTW... you clean up good!

    Cheers,
    Paul

    It's not that easy to clean up the audio. You need a professional to help with that. Btw, this is like having a RSS feed where you don't have to read the text or the news but it is read out at you.

    Check out this Nokia Nidget campaign by Ogilvy One based on this idea:

    However, if you are willing to do a Daily News parody that makes fun of ad agencies instead of politcians, I think I won't mind watching this for 3-4 episodes at least.

    This is actually...pretty damn funny. I particularly liked the "it's really about telling a good story" clip. Well, DUH.

    I agree that the audio could use some work, but the humor quotient gives you a bye on this round...

    Take the microphone out of your mouth, matt.
  • Matt · 1 year ago
    It....it tasted good. Think someone who wore that Jessica Simpson perfume was wearing it....lame, sorry.
  • nichelle · 1 year ago
    Hilarious! With the new combined firm be called Sheffield Sterling Cooper?
  • Roger Darnell · 1 year ago
    Very well-done, Matt. Agreed that with a little audio-tweaking on the next go-round you'll have hit on a very good thing. Onward and upward!

    Sincerely -- Roger Darnell

    Please do more videos! Yes with better sound, but it's fun regardless.

    Matt van Hoven is super cute.

    PLEASE GET YOUR SOUND SORTED OUT. When you are commenting on the world of media production, it does you no favours if your own video output sounds worse than an outtake from a 12 year old's My Space blog.
  • Jry · 1 year ago
    Totally agree with the above poster. Up your production values and you got something.
  • Matt · 1 year ago
    Yeah that was an unforeseen problem. We're all new at this - will be fixed in the next go round.
