Mother is awesome. Mother has always been awesome. And so it's kind of without surprise that this little bit of awesomeness comes from the agency. It's a recruitment video for interns, but it's unlike any recruitment video you have ever seen before.
It's always been a bit of a putdown to refer to interns (or anyone for that matter) as fresh meat. But that's exactly what Mother does in the this video. However, they do it so brilliantly that you really can't fault them for this gem of political-correctness-be-damned.
It's a psychedelic ride and the lyrics are twisted: "It doesn't matter where you've been before, We want you raw because you're hungry. Even if you've been on the floor. No want no day old meat. No want no stinky feet. No want to take no heat. Just give us our fresh meat."
For those who have toiled in the ad world for any significant bout of time, the meat and meat grinder metaphor will not be lost on you. Check out the video here.
