***UPDATE***

Since we ever-so-kindly brought attention to Parabis' video, the firm has made it private. So you can't watch it anymore. BOO HISS. Instead, here's a picture of a sad yellow man.





Ten house points to Parabis this week for an inventive visual feast. In the grand scheme of things, this is actually a cracker - highly professional and glossy. It's like Avatar - but then the competition is hardly stiff (e.g. Kennedys).

Of particular note in this five minutes of joy are:

(1) The lady removing her spectacles to reveal a purple eyeball;

(2) The details of the firm's ten year history, juxtaposed with the additional fact that one employee has enjoyed 38 year's service.

(3) The overview of exotic office locations. Chelmsford - POW. Halifax - BRAP. Maidstone - HORRORS.

(4) Staff attending the Leeds festival. In Parabis t-shirts. Hipsters.

(5) General shots of cackling staff, plus inexplicable monologues from senior partner types

And - absolutely worst of all -

(6) a crouching whey-faced sad man holding up a picture of an impoverished Ghanian child. Sure, it's a fine sentiment but......well, just watch it.



True completists/psychopaths may also enjoy watching the "rough cut"
