You've just got to love Fred and Sharon's enthusiasm for "making movies" on the web :-)

      I think that is why the two companies may have hired them to create videos for them.

      The second video (even funnier than the first) for Elliot Lester is to promote the Karma Kollective a successful commercial video production company producing tv ads and music videos.

      The second is for a recording artist's new media site.

    Haa haaa --- classic!

    That reminds me of the old Quiznos subs commercials -

    My kids and all of their friends loved those commercials. They were awful, but quickly became a cult hit at my son's school.

      Thanks a lot Josh...that's 6 minutes of my time I'll never be able to get back.

      I could have made love to my wife 3 times in the time it took me to watch those videos. Luckily for her we're not due to engage in that type of activity until after the New Year so no harm no foul.

      Now, if I can just get those images out of my brain before that time arrives I might even be able to perform up to my usual standards.

      I'm not bragging, I'm just saying...

    Definitely.

    Think about this though...

    Out of the most popular videos about video marketing the first one ranks among the most viewed of all time and it scored them a few jobs as well.

    A word of warning though... if you are going to be this bad you had better be bad enough to be the worst to bring you success.

    Sharon makes a great strait man :-)

      Josh, I think I'll pass on that particular approach to video marketing. Don't hate them for finding a stichk that works for them, though.

      Do you have any recommendations of people that produce videos at reasonable cost, using your tools?

      Your tools are fabulous, but I have no time or desire to become a technogeek.
      In the end, I think i'd end up looking like the couple here....or probably worse!

      Thanks in advance for the help...

    Ok Josh, you *******!

    I've been watching these and other "Sharon and Fred" vidoes for the past 15 minutes. I will say they are perversely hypnotic.

    According to Fred, Van Gogh "moved off to somewhere in Europe" before his most productive period ... oh Josh, you *******!

    LMFAO!!!!

    I admit it.

    Vinnie teared up more then once watching Fred and Sharon reflect back on.... the way they were.

    It was gripping. It was touching. It was moving. It friggin' yanked Vegas Vince's heart strings...!

    Video 2..... was especially powerful.

    Watching Sharon cook up what appeared to be a batch of pure crystal meth.........was the type of cutting edge shit other marketers just can't duplicate.

    Cuz a batch of Crank ...is an upsell few others are willing to offer.

    But not Fred And Sharon...aren't your normal marketers. They have big wavos!

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QOsLdT4slsk&NR=1
    Thanks for that...

    Growing up in Poulsbo Washington "Cal Worthington and his dog spot" immediately popped into my head without even watching the video.

    It's hard to believe that it has been two decades since I have even heard the name Cal Worthington and yet that phrase popped instantly into my head the minute I read that.

    Now that's branding...

    In fact as I am writing this I have not yet watched the video but I know that there will likely be a song that has a line in it:

    "If you need a better car go see Cal"

    Now... what is funny though is that as a child I may have been a little audio dyslexic as I often heard this line instead:

    "if you need a better car pussy cow"

    Thanks for the flashback Kurt :-)
