Author: H. Kent Craig Raleigh, NC |
Client: R. B. Robinson Product: FT Computers Title: Jack & Mack Lose A Contract Total Running Time: 60 Seconds Number: |
|---|---|
| OPEN TO A TIGHT SHOT OF A WELL-DRESSED EXECUTIVE, REPEATEDLY SLAMMING HIS FISTS ON HIS DESK; FRAME SHOT FROM SHOULDERS DOWN TO DESK. |
NO BACKGROUND NOISE; DEAD SILENCE JACK, LOUDLY, VOICE BREAKING WITH EMOTION, IN OBVIOUS DISTRESS; Why? ... why? ... how? ... how on Earth did they do it? |
| PAN TO SHOW EXECUTIVE CLUTTER. CUT TO TIGHT SHOT OF MACK'S HEAD FROM NOSE UP; CENTER HIS EYES | JACK, CONTINUING Tell me, my very highly-paid veep of marketing, just how did they our competition beat us on this one? Considering we had an entire month to prepare our presentation, and our JACK'S VOICE RISES TO AN ANGRY, INQUISITIVE HIGH PITCH navel-lint-picking competition had a total of two days to prepare theirs??!!?? |
|
CUT TO A PAIR OF WRINGING, SWEATY HANDS, WELL-MANICURED BUT
TENSE. CU MACK |
MACK, IN FAIRLY STEADY BUT OCCASIONALLY CRACKING,TREMBLING VOICE: Well, uhhhhh...well evidently the contents of our report was equal to theirs, but their ppresentation just had more immediate impact, was better presented. |
|
CUT TO JACK'S INTENSELY-FOCUSED EYES, SEARCHING, MOVING
CONSTANTLY. CU JACK, DOLLY BACK AND FRAME, CALMER NOW BUT STILL ANGRY. |
JACK: Say what?!? Our art department's got eight people on staff, and those camel-dung sniffers don't even have an art department! |
|
CUT TO ANGLE-SHOT FROM RIGHT REAR, SHOWING JACK BEHIND
DESK, MACK'S SHOULDER-DOWN LEFT REAR PROFILE
CU MACK |
MACK, VOICE CALMER, BUT STILL HESITATING LONG BETWEEN BREATHS AND THOUGHTS: Evidently, they have that new desk-top publishing system that fully integrates graphics and text, and with the built-in click-and-push "frog", allows almost anyone to use it, with virtually no training. |
|
CUT TO TIGHT SHOT OF JACK'S FACE IN PROFILE, SLIGHTLY
BACKLIT.
CU JACK |
JACK, IN MEASURED BEATS: And just what might that miracle system be? |
|
CUT TO TIGHT SHOT OF MACK'S EYES. CU MACK |
MACK, IN A SELF-ASSURED, DROP-DEAD MONOTONE: It called Frogintosh, and the fact we were caught flat-footed like a bunch of greenhorns by those warthog wart-suckers and their mighty little Frogintosh, might not put their victory of us in the miracle category, but ...MACKK'S VOICE TRAILS OFF |
| QUICK FADE TO FROGINTOSH LOGO | ANNOUNCER: Frogintosh, the computer for people who enjoy beating the frogrcrap out of their competition. |
| LOGO FREEZE TO END | SFX: Sound of frogs vocalizing in agreement "rrrrrbbbbttttt, rrrrrbbbttttt!!!" |
