My oldest daughter works for an ad agency in Raleigh, and about six months ago her company was one of three that was being considered for an ad campaign for the North Carolina Aquariums.

My daughter pitched an idea to her company's powers that be, and they ended up going with it! It's very silly (typical of my daughter), but they wanted to show NCA that the company's employees "fully immerse themselves" into their ad campaigns.

Keep in mind that this video is NOT the ads that will run, but was the ad company's pitch to the client to select them over the other competitors.

My daughter wrote the script!

I was able to catch a glimpse or two of her at the very tail end of the video, so look carefully. There's one "blink your eyes or you'll miss it" glimpse of her at a conference table (her brown hair is in a pony tail, and her shirt is orange), and then there's a pretty good shot of her sitting at her computer (in the out-takes at the end). Her hair is still in that pony tail, she's wearing a white and red costume. You'll see... She's also briefly in an work-out clip, same hair, same costume, and in the middle of the group.

Oh, by the way -- they got the contract!!!
