Open Call: Pitch Reels

The Pitch:

In the past few years Americans have been faced with an increasing amount of problems from rising gas prices, the Iraq War, the Housing Crisis, Unemployment, and a likely Recession. But the biggest problem and most dire, is one that not only Americans face, but the entire World. The problem of Global Warming.

The Environment has been an issue of note in this current year's Primary process with all three candidates, Senator Obama, Clinton and McCain discussing the creation of "Green Collar Jobs" not only to help the environment, but also to help create solutions to Unemployment and helping the Economy. Unfortunately, the candidates only mention the term "Green Collar Jobs" but never elaborate as to what it entails exactly.

By listening to this political rhetoric, most voters would think that Green Collar Jobs are a thing of the future. Unbeknownst to many Americans, these types of jobs flourish across the country, from the windy sands of Palm Springs, California to the frozen plains of Howard, South Dakota.

Utilizing various clips pulled from the campaign trail, various news outlets, and Green Collar workplaces. This 3-minute piece will aim to further the viewer's knowledge on the various jobs that can be considered "Green Collar".
