Open Call: Pitch Reels
Oh My God I'm So Popular! (6:22)
David Williamson - Houston, TX
The Pitch:
I feel that the presidential elections have become little more than a cavalcade of sound bites and superficiality. I consider myself to be a fairly well informed voter, but I find it difficult to differentiate between the candidates and find out exactly what they stand for. It seems that the surest way to defeat in this day and age is to actually take a stand and express your views. I would like to take a humorous look at the candidates and the election in the context of a popularity contest at a high school. For such an elaborate process it boils down to 'Who do you like better?' Is a popularity contest really the way that we want to elect our president?

If you approach this as a comedy, it could be quite hilarious. Of the laugh instead of crying variety.
