11. Your
Burning
Ques<on
• We
have
a
great
quality
product.
Our
customer
base
includes
in
store
commercials
for
IKEA,
news
items
and
sport
for
BBC,
ITV,
plus
loads
of
good
quality
corporates
and
organisa<ons.
Since
1998
we
have
been
very
busy
year
in
year
out.
• For
some
reason
these
last
two
years
have
been
"slow".
Some<mes
busy
some<mes
nothing.
• I've
thought
about
this
direc<on
for
some
<me,
before
the
market
disappears
altogether,
and
the
company
commercial
is
filmed
on
a
phone
by
the
chief
exec’s
grandmother.
•
I
some<mes
think
our
broadcast
skills
are
now
worthless,
and
everyone
wants
things
done
for
nothing.
(
one
client
recently
turned
down
a
£700
packaged
commercial
shot
in
London,
because
it
was
too
expensive
?
