    Could it be any more obviously an infomercial?

    It is fine if they want to do it but, they ought to disclose.

    Thanks Mic. No real revelations, but interesting (esp as I'm a baseball fan). I was a bit surprised at how young he seemed.

    If this is an infomercial, I'd be sacking the sacking the agency. The Nikon brand name is shown once, for maybe a second, and the guy doesn't mention gear at all. The video was made for Boston University (BU) showing one of the alumni at work. There appear to plenty of others on the website. (Boston Uni --> Boston RedSox - see the connection here Scotty?)

    I'm glad I'm not as cynical as some here, I'd never be able to enjoy anything.



    Cheers.
