This is cool as I have been working with a David Brent lookalike, Tim Oliver, and over the last week have noticed my videos on http://www.youtube.com Sky Rocket.
Until tonight, when a friend mentioned the Microsoft training videos, I could not work out why in the last week I have had over 1500 people download/view one of my videos. I have also now put the videos I did on http://www.cosmic1.com and they have well pushed up my bandwidth.
It’s all cool and good news for Tim Oliver – David Brent lookalike – although he has been so busy he chooses to avoid calling me to thank me for spending hours editing video just to promote him. Not a ******* word of thanks from him. Boy has he got so into character. He is just like a real life David Brent unfortunately.
You know, the cool thing about your “friend” Tim is that he is a look alike … and relies on his ability to “be” someone else … but that isn’t really talent, it is chance. Now, an ability to capture the “look” of a person and help them tell a story such as you do with your camera work and editing … now that is an authentic skill. And hey, its a skill you will have long after your friends’ “looks” have faded.
Of course, you know that people are REALLY interested in Ricky Gervais, not someone who sort of looks a bit like him 😉
