Saturday, May 23, 2009
Check out this pretty amusing video depicting what a Microsoft created “I’m a PC” ad would look like. The sound and picture quality isn’t all that great, but it was a High School student project shot and edited in 1 day. I think it has some comedic gems, and production quality aside, it’s well-done.
