Hey guys-
I wanted to ask for your help, I am planning on entering the moveon.org ad campaign contest called Obama in 30 sec. It should be an ad written, produced, filmed, edited, and must be original and inspired by the Obama campaign message ( of hope, change, progress, etc). I have two weeks, or a little less even to get this thing done. I had an idea, but I scrapped it last minute. I may go with the idea IF I continue having this miserable writer's block.
What I'm asking is not full blown ideas, I need to write this myself. But little tidbits, anything, any off the wall idea or premise for a 30 sec ad. I can fill in the rest. But whatever you all can think of, I would be thankful. If you see my ad on tv and I win, I will totally credit you wherever there is a chance to do so. =) thanks in advance.

PP If it's an Obama message based on hope change, and progress, it should be written, produced, filmed, and edited so that it results in a blank screen.

Okay, you touched the strings of my heart. Here goes.
A split screen. On the left side, an accelerating count of Iraq War expenditures approptiately labeled. On the right side, short clips one right after the other of the dilapidated condition of VA hospitals, floods, hurricanes, people being evicted from their houses, rundown neighborhoods, factory closings (you get the pictiure?). Then go to black. Then the left side again with an accelerating count of expenditures. But this time on the right side, short clips one right after the other of people being helped, etc. Fade to black. "Obama" appears near the top of the screen. Then just below it: Hope Change, Progress.

If I see one more three in the morning ad I am going to shoot my television.  Ha ha!! I know DT. Both McCain & Clinton released a 3:00 a.m. ad and they both are so much alike. Hopefully they'll go another route. It doesn't take long for these ads to get old I guess.  TIS Oh, I PP. How are you? Nice to see you back. I'm turning on my brain to try to help you think of a good idea. I'll see if I come up with something. Good luck to you.

PP This may very well suck, but I'll throw it at you and if it's not good, perhaps it'll spark a good idea. So FWIW. First, HOPE - Show a cheering crowd at an Obama event with the "Yes We Can" sign and scenes of the excitement surrounding these events without actually showing Obama. Second, CHANGE - Show a clip or picture of the Clintons and indicate it's "old school" or too much of the same ol' same ol' (of course add whatever else you can think of; or even throw a pic of McCain in the mix) Third - PROGRESS - An appropriate shot/clip of Obama and say, "Now This Is Progress." TIS
