Color Theory and the Future of Advertising
Posted: May 4, 2010 at 12:01 pm | Print This PostTraversing this interesting universe created from the amalgamated minds of culture around the world, you would figure, would bring the absolute best and brightest talent to our places of certification.
Certifications used to mean something. They used to mean that you had the drive, passion and hutzpah to accomplish your goals and your financial risk was a near doppelganger to your ability and the level of trust that could be put in you to create the most diverse and clever solutions.
I am disappointed — nay, distraught — in the result of digital media content creation as a service. There are people whose only gift is mediocrity, only doing as much to get through and pass the class, while those with true innovation and artistic passion are seen as no better than those who can stamp simple geometric shapes into a canvas.
And yet, it’s these people, the passionless dredge who muddy the waters for their peers. And in doing so, create the dirt that encases the diamonds, instead of stepping aside and letting the diamonds battle it out for superiority and kinship.
And while I write this, I really do wonder: We were in sort of a crisis of sorts here in the United States, of watching talent we spent money on get shipped back overseas because of immigration laws, limits, and processing incapacity to compete against ourselves. But really, how many of those will actually compete against us, instead of seek kinship working for our companies with their parasitic tentacles in far reaches? And how many are merely fæx immolare?
Whatever. Doesn’t matter. I’m glad to surround myself with the best, brightest, and often times exotic of mind and ability. And with all this competition in the market for certifications and the incoming demand of the people for cheaper certifications, hopefully we’ll be able to obtain these holy writs that make mere handwavey suggestions at the true powerful capability that lies within the minds I have the honor of wallowing in.

I’m glad you surround yourself with the most awesome of the awesome (ie. Me). That’s okay. I plan to outshine all these other fudgepackers that I’m currently dealing with and seriously make my “certificate” shine like it’s fuckin unobtanium!
That’s awful pretentious of you. What, did one of your buds get brushed aside for a cheaper bloke? Just because someone passes a bloody class doesn’t mean they are(n’t) talented. Hell, Bill Gates didn’t even finish collage.
