From YouTube to CANON commercial

I Love YTtalk
So we were chosen for CANON commercial - a real fantasy movie promoting new product. What is the connection with YouTube? Well - they asked for audition to send a movie of our son playing with toys, running toward the camera etc. So together with the movies I send them a direct link to our YouTube channel. I can't be absolutely sure but I have the strong feeling that the link have helped with the final decision (I guess hundreds of kids were competing for single place).
During the shooting of the movie - 2 days two different locations (deep in the mountains and in a studio) the YouTube training again helped a lot. For example a single scene had to be repeated in different variation for more than one and half hours - no problem at all (Alex is only 5 years old). He was actually asking me when he can say something like "Thank you for watching" :)
At the end both the filming crew and everybody else was highly satisfied!

Moral of the story - if YouTube does not want to make us viral may be some filming company will do it! :)
 
I really hope your kids are growing up with hopes and dreams other than becoming famous, as that dream is clearly yours.
