The Brief
4 Episodes
The Brief is a tongue-in-cheek scripted comedy show skewering the clichés and oddities of a life working in modern advertising.
Vision for the Show:
The goal is to repackage the existing eps and sell as a 1/2 hour pilot to international buyers.
Story-wise, no longer interns, Austin and Scoot are faced with the reality that their award-winning commercial concept didn’t materialize in its execution, meanwhile, Mack and Boss recruit new interns to continue their attempts at bringing the coveted Gen Z perspective into the fray.
The plan is to use real brands in every episode bringing to life the process of how beloved ads are created in hilarious and outrageous ways.
