Stock Photos! - The Media Show

Stocking is the new planking... like the Tumblr says. Erna and Weena re-create their favorite stock photos (or their favorite ones to hate). Join us in mocking the way advertisers stereotype people to sell products. Won't you?

No intro :(

[themediashow]

@saijeehiguchi ? It's a very short episode, sometimes we just don't run one, cuz it's as long as the episode itself.

[saijeehiguchi]

@themediashow Meh, in normal cases I skip the intro, but there was really nothing wrong about themediashow intro, and I've yet to skip it once. It's funny, and it doesn't get old.

[themediashow]

@saijeehiguchi Awwww I'm touched you like it :) It's going in the episode I'm posting today, as a special thanks to you personally! I kind of feel like we should shoot a new one, our puppeteering skills were so bad back then. Bonus: check out the outtakes for that shoot, they are absolutely riotous -- it's the "Origin Stories" episode.

[saijeehiguchi]

@themediashow Woohoo! You can shoot another one, but here are things I think made me not skip the first one: It was a short story, as opposed to a music vid.

The music fit the story, it wasn't super catchy so it couldn't ever get annoying, but it fit the mood of one character trying to sneak and the other trying to not but doing anyway.

It didn't drag on, and always made sense leading into the actual episode (We are going here for the sake of talking about so-and-so).

Will Watch outtakes!
