random creative help needed...

a friend of mine who does some modeling stuff has to do a 3-5 minute video for a company to see if they want to bring her on this tour or not. the item they'd be promoting is a new mint, not sure if that'll be part of the video or not. any ideas for cool random stuff we could do? (and please, nothing perverted)

need to leave to do this in like 45 minutes so this is sorta a rush thing, not gonna have time to edit or anything else. thanks...

Probably do something like use the mint as a car air freshener. Something to show that the mint is powerful enough to freshen anything. Hope it goes well. I'll post back when I think of something

interesting idea, thanks. i was just thinking of maybe having her pitch it to random people just walking by on the street too...

Minty breath bringing dead flowers back to life?

She could pop a mint and walk down the street, turning everything to ice...oh, you aren't editing.

Um...have her stand outside an italian restaurant or somewhere where bad breathe is a possibility and have her hand out mints when people exit the place. Maybe over act it or something, like the shampoo commericals that are shot on the street.

thanks guys, off to do this so we'll see how it goes. appreciate the help...

gotta do a pepsi taste test - on the street. (crush em up ;))

or....

Brand them as something unexpected like salted herrings or pickled kumwuats and actually repalce contents with your brand and suitably brand them with your mint stuff. This could aslo go hand in hand with a blind taste on the public, betwen various foods such as a rival mint, your product and salted herrings or whatever gross concoction.

ermm, *runs dry* (thankfully);)

well, we had her do a little "hi my name is etc." thing for about a minute in front of the camera in front of a coffee shop, saying we were going to go in and let people with coffee breath taste test the mint. problem is we went inside and they wouldn't let us film, so the next segment was her back outside saying "Well, they kicked us out, so we're gonna go find some other people to talk to" then we wandered around and found 3 or 4 people to try it and chat with them. we'll see how it ends up, thanks for the input guys.
