This American Life - Nice Work If You Can Get It

advertising news

As we all know from Apple's Get A Mac campaign, being a PC is hard. But, I didn't know how hard until I listened to NPR's This American Life's podcast # 329.

The topic of this week's show is dream jobs and the downsides that sometimes come with it. One such job is playing a nerdy, but lovable character in a popular ad campaign. John Hodgman (a.k.a. PC) tells us all about it.

Cannes Lions 2008 Showcase in Amsterdam - (2008) 2:05 (The Netherlands)

commercials - other/misc. (ads)

Saatchi & Saatchi Amsterdam produced this online film that was sent to all Dutch ad agencies as an invite to the Cannes 2008 Showcase to Amsterdam.

Trivia: That's my old office that the gorilla runs past in this scene. Seriously. For a moment there I even thought he was in my old office with the blue shelf but that's an office in the opposite wing. Me and another adgrunt you see hanging around here on occasion used to have a grand old time chainsmoking in there while concepting. Ah, those were the days. With all the old macs this video is like a time-capsule for me.
