I know, that's kind of an obvious statement... But anyway, it's a shame that Jill and Kevin got ripped off like that. Their wedding video surely has some sort of intellectual property protection in form of some sort of copy right. These guys are actually using the popularity of their video Ophelia thinks hardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08538284642733450430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5309932466795335827.post-56837577600859231362011-04-28T17:53:22.848-07:002011-04-28T17:53:22.848-07:00Well...

Just watched the T-Mobile one again.

Mainstream media nicking viral ideas is nothing new, though.

But I'm still feeling positive about this. Thanks to Ophelia you found out the truth. Then you posted it straightaway so your readers could know about the rip off. Plus this post shows the power of independent film makers to influence big companies and ad agencies.
