Kroger Thanksgiving Commercial

Yet another class assignment, this one had to be done for the recent Thanksgiving holiday.

My teacher's parameters were that this video had to be about a guy who was using the delicatessen at Krogers grocery store to get a Thanksgiving meal prepared. Originally I wanted to film inside an actual store, but after asking very politely I was denied access by the store's manager.

So I improvised. I thought that Krogers could deliver it to my door, and the idea worked out okay. I filmed and edited all of this myself, but on camera the delivery man at the door is my good friend Rob who was nice enough to give me 10 minutes of his time, and the voice-over was done by my classmate Tim.

Oh, and as for that scene where the stove is burning...that was not intentional at all!!! Actually I just wanted the pot of water to boil over, but when I turned the heat all the way up I guess something under the coils caught fire!

"Hi, Krogers?"

michigan/ohio accent.

Haha, big joke.

i thought it was just a michigan thing to add the S at the end of stores. habit, it makes it sound more friendly i think. hard to explain kinda..

[ufhater21]

although I dont think the accent is from there, in kentucky people say kroger's all the time w/o even noticing it lol i used to do it all the time

If you're going to do a video about KROGER you might try actually saying KROGER and not KROGERS. Other than that its good.
