Cahan Associates Founder Bill Cahan who, in a video on his agency’s site and on YouTube, says he’s concerned about the video featuring just him but them proceeds to feature just himself in the video. In oh-so-tired, oh-so-overdone close crop, shaky camera, ego-centric style, the video goes on in wondrously blatherific style explaining how the agency wants people/clients whose hearts beat a little faster, whose palms are sweaty and who are not quite sure what they are going to get. Now that sounds like a smart client doesn’t it? Anyway, Cahan says he’s not going to use buzzwords and then, yes, proceeds to use them.
The whole thing is begging to be spoofed and in try YouTube generation style, it has been. Twice. Here and here. They’re not all that good but they’re still funny. That said (oops…sorry…that’s one of “those words”) the agency’s site is clean, simple and does cause one to be a bit more curious about the agency over others whose Flashturbation sites frustrate and bore.
