Options August 2, 2017: Making the Kickstarter Video by Watching the WFMU Billboard Focus Group

Andy has returned from vacation at Kitty Hawk, where he gave his wife face time every day. The billboard effort is underway, and Ken and Andy have work to do. They need to create promo videos for their Kickstarter campaign, and they need to converge on a final idea of what to display on the billboard.

Kimzilla arranged for a focus group with real civilians at the Newport Center Mall, where mockups of 10 billboard ideas were presented to 12-13 people. Video footage was taken. It is determined that Ken and Andy have three videos to shoot for the Kickstarter campaign - 1) Intro/setup, 2) Analysis of the focus group results, and 3) Summary/wrap-up.

Cameras have been placed in the studio. Before reviewing the focus group, Ken and Andy attempt to shoot the Intro video. Things go a bit off the rails - numerous takes are needed, and Andy prays to God to strike Ken dead, but after some chaos and five takes, the video is basically shot.

Next up, a review of the focus group results. The self-effacing humor approach doesn't seem to land well with this group, and the prevailing reaction to many of these types of ideas is to be baffled, confused, insulted, and unclear if this advertisement is even for a radio station. Straightforward jokes, such as "4 out of 5 doctors recommend WFMU, the fifth doctor is an asshole" are received much more positively. Andy’s much discussed “dead mother” idea goes over quite poorly, offending most of the group. Racially inspired billboard ideas also are not popular, with "100% Jew Free" being described as "insensitive" and "cringe-worthy". The "Rihanna, Bieber, (Charles) Manson" billboard is well received - turns out there are several Charles Manson fans in the group. This one may well be the winner of the focus group.

A Summary video is quickly assembled as the show comes to a close.

If an accident happens in front of the billboard, it will get exposure on the TV news report.

i was wearing my blue eat flaming death tee shirt at the verizon store today and a gorgeous russian lady with her gorgeous russian daughter was staring at me. she smiled finally and said 'i like your shirt.' THANK YOU wfmu.
  6:13pm em2c:

@dale -- she liked the re-purposed commie propaganda imagery, perhaps?
  6:13pm JakeGould:

$50 each or $50 spread over a group of people?

maybe - she looked sort of like deanna troi from star trek tng.
Avatar ♥ 6:15pm Jeff:

Why does Andy always sound overmodulated?

Maybe that's just his voice.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:15pm PMD:

Wouldn't you feel bad Andy if he did die?
  6:16pm JakeGould:

@Jeff: Maybe he’s just endlessly burping?
  6:16pm em2c:

@Jeff -- his microphone technique is deliberately bad? it's part of the charm, I guess
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:16pm dale:

overmodulated or authoritative?
Avatar ♥ 6:16pm Jeff:

Maybe he's gargling gum.
Avatar ♥ 6:16pm pocket vito:

That first one was terrible. You should write out a script, so there's no uhh, uhh, and no improvising half-assed jokes that make no sense, and you should read it with enthusiasm!
  6:17pm Torbjørn:

Bordering on passive-aggressive at this point. "HEY, I'M ANDY BRECKMAN :|"
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:19pm chad from oregon:

The apology alone would be a great promo.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:19pm Marcel M:

The only thing dumber than this idea is the fact that I'm listening to it and mildly enjoying it.
Avatar 6:19pm TehBadDr:

Other rewards? Can I dress up in a Bear suit and rape Andy?
  6:19pm Drunken Creep:

Can't wait to see this billboard on the highway!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:19pm PMD:

So can we call in?

@MarcelM: Some of the best ideas in the world are horrible.

I'm looking forward to hearing what the 10 ideas are

No way Andy masturbated twice just before this. He sounds way too tense.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:21pm chris:

is there no post production?
  6:23pm JakeGould:

You’re reach around thinking, Andy.

"do you want that woman listening to your station?"

Why isn't that the billboard? edgy to a fault
  6:30pm james f:

edgy to a fault is a GREAT billboard

  6:32pm frulia:

These people wouldn't know reverse psychology or a joke if it hit them in the face!

WFMU: Good... we don't want you here anyways.
Avatar 6:32pm steve:

yeah "edgy to a fault" is good
Avatar ♥ 6:34pm pocket vito:

Maybe the billboard should just say Shut Up Weirdo!
  6:34pm Drunken Creep:

When I think of an inviting wfmu billboard, i think "Free Form Radio" stated along with positive imagery.
  6:34pm noel:

"IF YOU LIKE BILLY JOEL THEN DON'T LISTEN TO WFMU 91.1 FM"
  6:35pm JakeGould:

Isn't Andy's middle name Insulting?

this whole idea is one big fatal flaw
- I love the dead mother one!
  6:45pm Coleusound:

"WFMU: Mostly just noise". then they tune in thinking its a joke. That's the joke

"WFMU: your niche market"
  6:46pm ScottC:

This reminds me of the CAN TV series called "Slings $ Arrows" about a Theater Co trying to rebrand away from their older subscribers to a younger demo. The Co hires this goofy Ad Agency that uses pictures of cancer patients and bad review clippings.

I'll definitely be giving to kickstarter, and will love to see that billboard. Yet I gotta say, you guys are a rockin' good positive station, why have so many negative angles on billboard images? Life is like WFMU, you never know what you're gonna get

Another idea for the US 206 billboard for WMFU: "Continuing north, you can listen to our programming go south."
  6:59pm cat:

if you play music by the artist then you can argue that you can use their image because you provide a service related to their image
