Apple Shares Humorous 'Working-From-Home Thing' Video

[iGeek2019]

I hope that honeycomb cardboard thing is a success..

Probably being used for iPhone 12 packaging if recent rumours are true 😆

I like these actors. I hope the exposure from this gets them more acting gigs.

I think they should all be in a show together.

Actually, I thought it was amusing....as that is our life right now in corporate jobs. meeting to meeting, Skype to teams, to Zoom...can whoever has their mic open please mute it? You're video is freezing, what kind of ****** internet service do you have...you really should upgrade...etc

I laughed out loud multiple times through this. Good work, Underdogs! Hope to see more of them in the future.

Who says 'brainstorm' these days? 'Thought shower', surely. Keep up Apple.

This is the video they would have shown to that guy from A Clockwork Orange if they wanted to inspire in him a hatred for all forms of technology.

 

[Expos of 1969]

Oh my goodness. That is bad.

 

[squidkitten]

Super cute! I love that it was a continuation with the same group from the original Underdogs ad with the round pizza box. Great way to show businesses how Apple products can be utilized.

Apple TV+ is in need of more shows

Why did I just spend 7 minutes of my life intentionally watching an ad?

 

[Veinticinco]

Yeah so I was waiting for it to get funnier or cleverer. Gave up just shy of the 3 min mark. Like a really bad episode of the Office. Someone seriously needed to edit this at the very least. Nice topical concept, just really woeful execution.

I hope that honeycomb cardboard thing is a success..

fun fact: it's inside the Mac Pro packaging.

I really enjoyed that. Is this and the one about the pizza box the only ones done with this cast? Really liked both of those shorts.

Cringe ultra ++

 

[bchery21]

I liked this.

 

[zinacef]

I really enjoyed this sequel, and it was brilliantly designed and executed just like the first. To this day I still often rewatch the first one.

Side note: does anyone know where to get the rooster alarm sound?

 

[orbital~debris]

I liked this video! Lots of nice little observations about how life is for many at the moment, and a few LOL moments.
I identified with quite a bit of it 😄

What are you guys using as an alternative to Indesign?

I've moved over to everything Affinity, and I now use Publisher as a replacement for InDesign. Happy to see the back of Adobe.

 

[DEMinSoCAL]

I loved it! Despite being an Apple ad, I didn't feel like they were shoving their products down my throat.

And, the whole thing was just funny! Good job!

 

[AE_stc]

terrible

❤️👍

 

[Breaking Good]

I laughed out loud multiple times through this. Good work, Underdogs! Hope to see more of them in the future.

I was right there with you. I hope they keep making these short videos.

I work from home. This is not what working from home looks like. I don't know what this looks like other than 2 minutes of my life I'll never get back.

People can't tell the difference between 720p and higher res, so why should Apple waste money so tech nerds can fight over specs?

I use a webcam on regular basis. People can tell. Old people can tell. The difference is huge especially on Apple products with high res screens. Please stop talking.

I'm sorry, but 99% of Apple users aren't counting pixels.

100% with functional vision can tell the difference between video shot with a front facing iPhone 11 Pro and the webcam of a 2500 dollar 16" Macbook Pro. You don't have to know what the pixel count is to point at the image that doesn't look like washed out garbage. Please stop pretending this is a specs war.

 

[JLOAKS]

I'm just shocked they featured the iMac for 3 seconds in the video (although it was all very quick cuts). You know, the device that was created for stationary use at home.

 

[Johnny907]

Probably because the Intel integrated graphics is so weak, it can barely deal with live encoding+streaming 1080p HEVC video without generating lots of heat, ramping up the fans and eating up tons of battery.

The Apple powered MacBooks won’t have this problem, they’ll have far more powerful and efficient graphics, just like iPads already do.

... no, but consumers like you that don't understand how this process works will be easy targets for new Macbooks.
