I Put My Boyfriend On A Billboard - Summary

Summary

The speaker, Christine, introduces herself as having her own nail polish line. She mentions that she has advertised on social media but hasn't spent any money on billboard advertising. To show that nail polish is for everyone, including men, she convinces her boyfriend, Ben, to pose for a photo shoot wearing nail polish. The photos are planned to be used on social media but Christine has a surprise in store - she'll put these pictures on a giant billboard in Ottawa.

Christine starts by painting Ben's nails, applying a glossy nail polish called "Taco You Hereby". She then takes a series of photos of Ben with the nail polish, which are intended for use on social media. During the photo shoot, Christine asks Ben how much he loves the nail polish, and he responds enthusiastically.

After the photos are taken, Christine begins editing them. She uses Photoshop to enhance the images, placing Ben over a pattern of Holow Taco's nail polish colors. She adds a logo and text to the images, and also adjusts Ben's hair and nails for a better appearance on the billboard.

Once the images are ready, Christine submits them to the billboard company. She learns that the minimum campaign length is four weeks. The images are then placed on billboards around Ottawa, with Ben posing in various locations.

During a tour of Ottawa, Christine points out various locations where she has previously filmed videos or bought products. She also mentions the Shawarma Palace, a favorite restaurant in town.

In conclusion, Christine expresses her hope that the billboard campaign will be successful and that more people will see it in real life. She thanks everyone for watching her video and promises to see them later.
