It's like my life on tv! Well, sort of. Apparently James Edmund Datri of the Cincinnati Ad Club wants to "improve the industry's image" by creating a reality television series about the National Student Advertising Competition, or NSAC. This is the campaign that Ball State AAF enters every year and have been very successful in. This will apparently give both students and the general public a better idea of what the advertising industry actually does."One of the issues we have when it comes to public policy is that people don't have a very good perception of us," he said. "I want the public to see that advertising is so much more than [Madison Avenue], and I think by showcasing NSAC on a reality TV show, we're going to generate a positive perception of our industry that could really be a game changer."
Well, out w/ one show ("Trust Me"...r.i.p) and hopefully in with another. If it goes thru, I can be one of those old college grads who just can't give up the 'ol days!
