This is a personal favorite among my video collages, and one of the most simple. It combined two main sources, a Sponsor Reel made by Optimus, and an animated music video from 1980, both described in detail below. The soundtrack is entirely from the Optimus Reel, and the material availed itself of funny little synchronies like the two-headed bird-monster who sings along, or sound-effects that coincide with the animation. The live-action sequences come from a Sponsor Reel for AICP made by Optimus. More info can be found at Motiongrapher (link below), where I first watched this hilarious visual confection. The two actors, I later learned, were Doug and Bob - employees of the firm who work in client services and accounting. They are fantastic. motionographer.com/2007/11/17/aicp-midwest-opening/ The original reel is available to watch or download at this link: optimus.com/AICP/aicp_large.mov The animated sequences are from a music video from 1980 for La Bionda "I wanna be your lover". More info, and the original video with a catchy - but perhaps not Lost&Found compatible soundtrack - can he found at this link: dekku.blogspot.com/2006/10/la-bionda-i-wanna-be-your-lover.html Cast: velocorapture
