Interns, Interns, Interns

Aug 10 2009

The YouTube video from Crispin interns has been circulating through agency e-zines and word-of-mouth email for the past week or more.

It made me think about the wacky stuff that free labor at other large agencies come up with and here’s what I found off of a Google Search:

Crap – I searched and looked at dozens of intern videos with no sound or no humor. Maybe Crispin nailed this better than I thought. There is opportunity for other interns to take their spin on it. This also proves that online video still needs a lot of content – there is very little out there and much much smaller amount of quality.

As for interns at eROI, we love ‘em.  Not sure I want to task any of them with spending 100′s of hours putting together a rap video.  Your thoughts?

Next post…wrapping paper gone wild experiment in the office (video and pics to follow)…

    Of course not a rap video. This is Portland! They should do a large-scale interpretive dance production and see if they can’t get White Bird to sponsor it!

    With over 47,000 views in 6 days…these guys hit it home.

    Let’s see what the traffic yeilds in 6 months from now.

    I think a rap project could be a perfect intern project! It would encourage collaboration, creativity, thinking outside the box… Sounds like a perfect intern project, actually (=

    Perhaps instead of creating an entirely separate project, interns should have (get!) to present whatever project in the form of a rap…
