The Commercial for Mass Mutual

So here is the link to the Mass Mutual commercial that I was blessed enough to shoot on my actual birthday...they even got me a cake! It was a wonderful experience.

Wow, Mariel's comment about the mother's voice is, uh, harsh and trivializes the power of the commercial and Ms. Norland and her family's circumstances. (And she might have used a different voice for a different kind of project, but part of the authenticity of this ad was that she wasn't speaking like a member of, for example, the Royal Shakespeare Company--in either tone or accent); Amyjo seems to assume that most people are so stupid regarding ICU nurses that we would interpret "watching" as, say, crocheting while glancing at the patient once in awhile (anyone that ignorant isn't going to be enlightened by words such as "wanted to care for him"); and Truth in Liberty might have asked more politely why Ms. Norland hadn't responded rather than assuming that she just didn't care.

The dark side of the Internet: You usually don't have to look someone in they eye when you're online, so why bother to be civil?

In any case, I was happy to see the vast majority of the rest of the responses--which were supportive and offered praise--to her post.
