WOW!!! I'm impressed!!!
...by yet another example of <span style="font-style: italic">~art directors~</span> knowin' <span style="font-weight: bold">EVERYTHING*</span>. Ya know darn well the shot was set up to run on the left third of the screen, then some artsy guy decided his or her scent was missin' from the spot.
So they pee'd on it.
Reminds me of the DIY ad where two people clink hammers like a high-five... and no eye protection.
"*no actual craftsmen were consulted for the recording of this clip."
:shocked: :madder:

Geez, Drew!!! Mebbe we'd notice?!? Or some who have actually DONE work take exception?
Esthetics (to some) seem to rule over reality in this case. It may be a small point, but germain to those who've actually DONE stuff.
"Art" has befuddl'd the masses, IMO.
There was a book in the '60's.... "Subliminal Advertizing" IIRC. We're hitting a point where sound bites and YouTube hold sway over reason.
...I'll live to regret that...

We notice -- I've done work with my hands as well -- but lots won't. Hand them a screw driver and a screw and they'd have to try a couple times to make it work.
Folks don't seem as interested in going deep on things anymore. I still hold that the pendulum swings, though, and that folks will get back into it again.
