About this title

Synopsis

What do you do when a competitor wants to use your company in an ad as a bad example? How do you find the only transsexual AA meeting in Berwyn? What are the eight circles of video hell? You'll find the answers to these and other questions in The Week Behind, the weekly chronicle of life in one of Chicago's most unique video post-production houses. With tongue firmly in cheek, employees of this award-winning media company track the odd corners of life to produce a company newsletter like no other. Nothing is too far afield to be grist for the mill in this backwards look at life, work and television from the staff of IPA, The Editing House, where creative people come to work . . . every day.

Review

Random access with a 12 month timecode. The historical record of a small tribe of human beings hunting and gathering electrons on the cutting edge of technology. --Bruce Bendinger

This is a book for anyone who ever had to publish the company newsletter, report on the picnic, or explain the health insurance policy . . . it's amazing what you can do these days with a Macintosh, a scissors, a Xerox machine and a sense of humor. --Paul Hirsch, Professor of Business, Kellogg School of Management
