My Personal Kindle in a Commercial

daffy4u · 08-19-2009, 05:01 PM

I'm shooting a commercial for an big aeronautics company. They just borrowed my Kindle for the shot. Instead of one of the techs using a clipboard, he's tying info into my Kindle!

Can't post pics or give other details until the spot airs.

Yeah, well hopefully it will still talk to me when the shot is over (that's a bad TTS joke

).

Eight Bajillion months later, I finally saw the spot tonight while watching "MythBusters".

You can view the spot on the Boeing website (That's Why We're Here (BDS - America's Best) but you need RealPlayer to view it (yuck!).

I grabbed a still so you know which shot to look for (No, you can't tell the guy is holding a Kindle but he is).

daffy's Kindle: "I'm on TV!"
sis's Sony: "Please tell me it's not that American Survivor Program and someone is sneak reading on you!"

daffy's Kindle: "Oh, great idea!" "I could get my agent to pitch that idea to the producers!"
sis's Sony: "Whoa, slow down. Which program were you on?"

daffy's Kindle: "Come over here, we can watch it on the website!"
sis's Sony: "Um, that's a commercial."

daffy's Kindle: "Shhh!"
sis's Sony: "It's about.."

daffy's Kindle: "Shhh, here I come..." "There, there! See, that's me!"
sis's Sony: "Um.. where?

daffy's Kindle, pausing the commercial: "Right there!"
sis's Sony: "Oh, sorry.. I thought he was holding a notepad." "But, you looked great! That's a good look for you." "Have you had any call backs?"

Thanks for posting daffy. I wondered when it would be on.
