I need your help.


This is related to computers, and a business that deals with computers, so it fits best here

I have been given the task to make a commercial for a local computer shop, they sell some mods and premodded cases; they also build custom PCs, install networks, and design websites. Since I used to professionally make commercials, this is not a difficult task to me; the problem is, I used to have a team to work with, a person who wrote a script, a camera crew, etc, I just put the thing together. Now I'm completely on my own, and I have been instructed to not use any footage or photos of the shop, but I can use pictures I find online.

So I ask the members of OCForums to help me out with making this commercial. Any input or help would be greatly appreciated. Design ideas are especially welcome. The shop owner desires the commercial to run with techno music, with no speaking in it at all, but there can be text. It must be 30 seconds long, and must mention all three of the aforementioned services.

Right now, the only idea I have is to mash a bunch of images together at fairly high speed with some leading text and Juno Reactor techno playing. I've been gathering pictures for the past half-hour or so, but the ones that elude me are pictures of people working on network racks, and people looking like they're working on websites. I can probably take a screenshot or two of websites for the examples.

All help and criticism is very welcome.
Oh yes, the deadline is two weeks from today, so I have plenty of time to work as long as someone can come up with something better for me to work with.

I would love to help but isn't there the question of copyright and so on when it comes to taking images from the web?

Im sure I can find pics of people working on the nightmare rackmounts.
