Along with every other website and YouTube surfer, a few days ago I posted a creative music video created by Dennis Liu for the band The Bird & The Bee which has created quite a "buzz" (har har) on the Internets in a short period of time. As a result, Liu is attracting a lot of attention as well. In addition to job offers from Yahoo, Microsoft, and HBO, here are other highlights:

  • Head nods from several known Hollywood producers and directors.
  • Talks to getting a manager/agent at a major talent representation agency.
  • NYU, USC, and Berkeley requesting the video to show their film/new media students.
  • E-mails from major corporations, including marketing directors and employees of Yahoo, Microsoft, HBO, Pixar, Disney, and of course Apple.
  • Invited to screen at film festivals world wide, from the UK to Australia.
  • An apple store manager in IL showed all her employees the video as an example to artfully show the power of the macs to customers.
  • The author of “Stickies” wrote to congratulate, as well as a lead developer of OSX.
