Product Design Students

Today I went into Rave after having a very busy morning to ... at lunch we had Product Design students pitching their products they had been working on however as we were late starting and overrunning after the first presentation it was never going to happen. We saw three in total, Burton (which was useful as we were supposedily advertising this unknown product), Red Bull, and Avon I believe. All three presentations were pretty good however the product Burton was selling was ... 'arse pads' put planely. I wouldn't mind attempting to work this in somewhere however its a bit of a strange product to have an advert for as its not really teh essential equiptment and it would be more for the elite snowboarders and pros who own their gear/do it for a living/as a sport. I think its this reason why Matt and I have probably taken a step back from the Product Design students attempting to sell it to us. The presentation was fairly good... its just a shame its such a niche market they are selling to considering you can't really imagine popping up on your tv set.... unlike the Avon and Red Bull products. I think its safe to say that Matt and I are now will be advertising Burton from our own perspective - next job is to contact Burton themselves to see if they are interested in having any influence in our animations at all.
