"Bulldog With A Pink Bow"
Situation: Cara often found herself in interesting situations, surrounded by interesting people. To help make a better splash, she wanted to somehow become more lovely, gracious and interesting.
Idea / execution: In keeping with her tough, but pleasant personality, a bulldog with a pink bow philosophy, handout cards and simulated scene dialogues were created to help Cara learn – and enjoy – a fresh presentation of herself.
Excerpt from sample scene:
INT. PRIVATE HOME DINING ROOM – EVENING
An interesting blend of influential people are gathered around a large table to eat, drink and talk – the perfect opportunity for CARA to memorably introduce herself and discuss what she does for a living.
LEONA
Oh Hans - you’re not telling that same
story again, are you?
HANS
Ha ha - yes yes…
LEONA
Don’t believe him Cara - everything that
man touches turns to gold.
HANS
Ha ha – Leona you flatter me.
LEONA
Hans, I would like you to meet a friend
of mine: Cara Brust.
HANS
(hand kiss) It is a pleasure to meet you.
CARA
Hello.
Small talk ensues. Cara steers the conversation in the direction of describing ones self. Hans gives his answer, then –
HANS
…And you? How might such a delicate
flower describe itself?
CARA
Well - I’m a bulldog…
(pause) with a pink bow.
HANS
Bulldog?!? With a…
CARA
Pink bow.
HANS
How does this mean?
CARA
(snaps fingers) I’m tough…
(winks and smiles) But friendly.
TEX
Yeeeehaw!
LEONA
Tex - behave yourself.
TEX
(removes hat) Sorry little lady.
CARA
(laughs it off) That’s okay.
I believe the work I do sums
me up pretty well.
HANS
And what is it you do?
CARA
I’m a Production Efficiency expert.
HANS

TV production consultation - with a smile.
