Editor’s Note: The Creative Department is privileged to have not one, but two, co-op students from University of Cincinnati’s prestigious, College of Design, Architecture, Art, and Planning (DAAP) gracing our presence this Spring. One of them, Nathanael Gethers, has decided he wants share a little about his experience thus far.
So it’s just another day in the CD office, but I must say nothing ever seems to slow down here. On top of being a co-op, working on a client’s “miispace” page, and getting pegged in the face with a finger-rocket (“The Mailbox Flipper”), there is so much creative working going on that I don’t even know how to focus.
UPDATE!
Rocketball has been requiring a lot of my attention lately, and I have learned to maintain a certain level of watchful paranoia. Whether it’s returning fire at Jeff or banking rockets off the giant disco ball to assassinate Brandon, I have to constantly watch out for Katie, who seems to like launching the rockets off my face.
UPDATE!
Another great distraction is the 10,000 stairs we have in the building.
UPDATE!
Every time one of us lucky interactives has the pleasure to see Starfield Chris Fryburger we get to hear a rimshot and Sean yell out. “Ladies and Gentlemen, FRYBURGERRRRRRRRRRR.”
UPDATE!
Of course I can’t forget about Drew McKenzie and the crazy “sad trombone” sound effect that Sean plays to warn us of his presence.
UPDATE!
This is the fifth time Jeff has warmed his coffee today in the microwave. He either needs to start drinking cold coffee or drink a bit faster.
UPDATE!
In order to be a part of the interactive team, you must complete one very simple task. Drink 8+ cups of coffee a day.
UPDATE!
For those who are bored at work or sitting at home this is for you.
Just sit there in amazment and watch to see if the flow ever switches from left to right to right to left.
FINAL UPDATE! (for now)
M. Night Shyamalan (nothing with a twist) has nothing on the Creative Department. There are always things happening around here and there is always a twist.

I sit right next to you, and don’t get even one stinking mention. We’re through. Don’t talk to me. Ever. You smell like a sheet.

I think you should pitch this as a show to the National Geographic channel.
