Two things are equally infectious. Hunger and mediocrity. If given the right kind of growing (or ungrowing) conditions, one can easily overwhelm the other.

To protect our future from the latter, we're investing in a talent farm at PFI. We've carved out an area in our agency just to hold rare and fragile unicorns - the creative interns. How many? It's yet to be determined, but we know the area can hold 7.

Since we've put out the word, we've had over 30 responses. Out of these potential victims, we interviewed a little less than half, 15. Below is a sample of some of the front runners.

I taught Glen in a TV and Branded Content class @ Brainco. He has a natural sense for storytelling and editing, solid drive and a deep respect for our craft. Crazy sideburns too.

Matt is an art director student. He's eerily good for someone with such small calves. Great presentation skills and a natural storyteller.

Tran is like a rainwoman. Strange. Quirky. Almost autistic in talent when it comes to photography. She's got a knack for capturing people in stills.

Matty G is a grinder. His drive and dedication gets me kinda giddy. He's got potential up the yin yang and natural writing skills. I'd clone him if I could, but then I'd worry about a world with more than one of him.

Meagan will be scary with some real world experience under her belt. I put her through hell in TV class last year, but she came out even stronger on the other side. And apparently, into somewhat of a wise ass. I like that.
