Yahoo Adbuzz recently posted this humorous digital short titled: 'Yahoo! Hearts Creatives' on YouTube as a satirical look into the life of ad agency creatives.
Included in this clever mockery is a vicious butt-kissing account executive who switches sides before you can blink, and a couple of pretentious clients. A must see point in the video shows the creatives scrambling to prepare for the client. Apparently Yahoo Adbuzz really does heart creatives, as they affirm: 'We. Feel. Your. Pain.'
Implications - This is the kind of video that would be a hit with anyone in the ad industry...or who watches Mad Men. This five minute video is an absolute must watch -- instant classic territory.
