Three words

I'm working on a project for work that requires a little creativity/inspiration.  Last year the company won an award as one of Houston's best companies to work for/at (one of 100).    HR is in the middle of working for a repeat of that award and is encouraging employees to add in their comments about the company.  To do that, they have thrown down the gauntlet to produce a 5-10 second video clip of what makes it great to work here.  They shamelessly stole it from ABC news about using three words to describe the a situation or person.  Normally, being an engineer and manager, I have little time or patience for this stuff, but somehow, my inner muse struck me earlier this week and gave me an inspiration for a clip.  I am working on one this weekend and plan to post it later.  It's going to require a bit more tweaking, some creative editing and a wee bit o' scotch, but I have a funny theme in mind.  Of course, I really could use Meleah's expertise in videography help to really make this shine, but I guess I will have to improvise, adapt and overcome.


In the meanwhile, for those not tied in with the corporate world, I thought would share something my Golden Beginnings Rescue Group has been passing along this past week describing the typical corporate environment (in dog terms).

HA! Love the pooches and their captions... well, except perhaps for the poor laid off Basset hound. But who knows, maybe it'll turn out to be the best thing that happened to him.

Have fun with your videography!
