...so said the unemployable man. one lacking utility...value. If you are not marketing yourself in any interview you are wasting your time as well as the prospective employer's and that will not be appreciated...in the strictest sense of that financial term. It is the most depreciating activity in which to engage as it takes and refuses to give..
The speaker was fantastic, and informative. I appreciate his honesty and the presentation very easy to listen to , to enjoy with the dash of humor , very refreshing. He gets an A plus , how could you not like this guy he''s just like an old friend , I feel like I've known him all my life! Excellent!
Павел Михайлов Actually, citizens kind of deserve cities that don't look depressing. But since you seem to be Russian, maybe you don't know what I'm talking about.
I love the aspect where he had to go to numerous people and companies where he asked them about their brand because when you really do find your brand you do find your strating journey so that you know where you can start heading , he also should how with a couple print they were able to reach more than 900 million people and that it with before they were able to distribute the movies, he showed every possible aspect and went to extreme length to be able to do such thing, this is hands - down my favorite Ted Talk I have very watched.
Morgan Spurlock, thanks for this. Transparency does not exist.Deception is the rudimentary concept of life. I do like your exposure of the hypocrisy of the advertising industry. Thanks, Alex
I want to suggest the subject of Morgan's next analysis - the negativity of comments on forums. Quite shocked by the dogmatic comments from some, what happened to opinion? While I might not agree with everything in this talk it was thought provoking and interesting, superbly presented and somewhat fun as well. I'd suggest that we try to take away something positive from all interactions.
After Supersize Me? I'm sure they have his mug shots everywhere around their facilities together with the instructions to call security immediately if they see anybody ressembling him.
you need to structure a question like that !! MORE! you need to ask what they are about what would they say if they could sum themselves and their path up or something more On Point!
Great marketing strategist and implementer both at the same time! A go getter! Take risks, take that plunge. Risks = Rewards. Repeated Rejections = Sure Success one fine day.
yup...my mistake. I saw them both around the same time several years ago. Thought it was the same dude. Thanks for clearing that up. Both good docs imo..
There's an ending begging for an encore... of the first transparency pic he put up... of the model with the see-through blouse. He could have said, embrace that transparency buddy! Seriously I hope the best for EMC squared and for Morgan's for like this was a brilliant talk!!!
Goodness gracious. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a Ted talk that was so focused on a single egotistical individual. This Ted talk wasn’t about anything, except how great Morgan Spurlock is.
No, absolutely note! He hid what was otherwise a very boring TedTalk in a click-baity title which suggested entertainment. However, what we got was essentially a long, drawn-out marketing advertisement about a film which attempts to give the viewer a transparent look at marketing. Basically, he used the same disguises large marketing firms use to sell us crap, but he did it to sell what is probably a shitty documentary. Either he planned this, in which case he is very intelligent, or he didn't, in which case he is an idiot.
danpt2000 i agree. as much as I respect TEd's contributions, why does it cost so much? What do they use that money for? as people just come and give talks
danpt2000 if Ted pays, Ted must take the money somewhere, so sponsors. when all is linked to sponsors, the freedom of speech becomes zero. This is why you pay Ted (you pay the lights, the theatre etc), and Ted doesn't pays you, because Ted intentionally chooses not to be linked to sponsors.
Everybody makes their own choices. I have to admit, Morgan Spurlock is very intelligent and very savvy.Human experimentation is illegal and unethical. What better way to prove a point ( or a large study) correct rather than experiment on yourself? i.e. Supersize Me for instance. When some one claims: I eat McDonalds/Fast Food several times a week and I'm healthy we now have direct proof that they are not healthy. A+ Morgan Spurlock.
Listening to TED is really insightful and I guarantee anyone that TED is the bomb. My eyes have opened to boundless opportunities and lots of high benefit investment portfolios since I started listening to TEDx talks. Have really perfected my craft and most especially thanks to Melissa Mensen for her wonderful investment Portfolios, have made about $115,000 just from the investment insights from Ms. Mensen.
TED talks are really a good therapy for anyone in the journey of self improvement, since I gave birth to my child I had some struggles as a single mother and listening to TEDtalks was kinda a game changer for me.
TED Talks are really mind blowing and a perfect guide for anyone in search of uncommon knowledge, maybe in the aspect of career, business or a good investment. I like TED Talks.
It's so cool when you hear an individual talking about what matters, enlightening the public on the best navigation techniques on founding themselves amidst any endeavours they have set out to pursue. Ted talks are simply just amazing.
he would pass just 13 years later.. Thank you for your positive impact on society and moving with class. RIP good Sir 🕊️
RIP Morgan Spurlock ❤️ Prayers 🙏 to you and your loved ones.
Morgan, "What's your brand?"
Tom, "Um... I'm Tom."
You win, dude.
+USERNAMEfieldempty It's funny because the way he said that actually communicates so much about his personality, and brand
+Kevin Stitely You mean the fact that he shuns the Idea of labeling himself with marketing diarrhea of the English language?
...so said the unemployable man. one lacking utility...value.
If you are not marketing yourself in any interview you are wasting your time as well as the prospective employer's and that will not be appreciated...in the strictest sense of that financial term.
It is the most depreciating activity in which to engage as it takes and refuses to give..
The person isn't the most reliable source of information about the person.
Time Stamp Please?

Love how the lady came out at the end and said, "Ahem. Aren't you forgetting something? I think that money belongs to us."
This whole execution is a marketing masterpiece.
Yes, it is an understatement.
The importance of Morgan spurlock's talk on transparency is that secrecy is the refuge of the dishonest and the incompetent.
I would venture to say that anything "Morgan Spurlock" touches --- will turn to GOLD... Awesome TEDTALK! Loved it!
He is so hilarious on so many levels. I love this man and want so badly to hang out with him for a day.
That was the greatest TED talk EVER.
Nice work, MS. You inspire me.
All the best.
hm
No ads in public streets. Awesome!
it get's a little bit tedious in long trips
KIM BAB Did you see that city? It looked boring and depressive as hell.
Fun fact. Crime rate went up after the ads disappeared.
totallyunmotivated It did, but not because there were no ads.
Павел Михайлов Actually, citizens kind of deserve cities that don't look depressing. But since you seem to be Russian, maybe you don't know what I'm talking about.
What a clever and courageous human and soul. God Speed, Morgan. We need more like you in this world.
Fantastic....what fearlessness and honesty can combine to deliver....great..enjoyed it
I clicked to watch it because I actually thought it's the greatest TED talk ever sold 😅 You thought so too? 😂
Me too...
Exactly 😂
Clickbaited
No, it wasn't
Me too😅
I love the aspect where he had to go to numerous people and companies where he asked them about their brand because when you really do find your brand you do find your strating journey so that you know where you can start heading , he also should how with a couple print they were able to reach more than 900 million people and that it with before they were able to distribute the movies, he showed every possible aspect and went to extreme length to be able to do such thing, this is hands - down my favorite Ted Talk I have very watched.
Always thought it would be a good idea if politicians had to wear clothes with their sponsor logos all over - like in sports...
fnatist sounds like a comedy bit i heard once… like word for word.
+fnatist hahaha.... that's a great idea!
always or since you watched JRE?? lol
perfectly said...
great, but a politician's motivation is more complex than a sponsor.
This is a transparent view inside the creation of a transparent movie about transparent marketing.
+john sims Are you sure it was a transparent view?
Transparen-ception
I see what you did there.
I will see myself out.
if you look closely you can see Casper in there somewhere
Morgan Spurlock, thanks for this. Transparency does not exist.Deception is the rudimentary concept of life. I do like your exposure of the hypocrisy of the advertising industry. Thanks, Alex
Great TED talk!!! Very interesting approach to branding ! Genius 😄

+TheHeavyModd wow
because the internet is the place we go to say things we can't say to our friend's and bosses #sweetrelease
ua-cam.com/video/7YWwH054FGQ/v-deo.html
Love the last part: The more your drive people far away from risks, the less rewarded you make them.
This is one of the best Ted talks I've ever seen. good stuff
"My brand is FedEx, because I deliver the goods"
+Luke Logan and you only come when there is no-one at home.
+voodoodummie *cum
+voodoodummie Thats my wife.
LvL my brand is ups because I want you in my ps ;)
Great dealers name that is if a dealer was consistent
Morgan Spurlock always gives me douce chills. He can't help but be smug.
The comedic value alone is worth the read. The fact that most of yall domt get...is the whole point hes making
After watching his film because of seeing this I then realised that this is another advertisement. Well done, Morgan Spurlock. Well Done..
Are you telling me that Morgan Spurlock couldn't get McDonalds to sponsor 'Greatest Movie Ever Sold'!?
After Supersize Me? I'm sure they have his mug shots everywhere around their facilities together with the instructions to call security immediately if they see anybody ressembling him.
NerdVision nah the instructions are "spit in his coffee and don't fry his burger"
+Goofy But the meat is fortified with added protein and other vital nutrients!--from liquified pink worms and some maggots, but who's checking?
+NerdVision dude that fucking disgusting LMAO!!!
you need to structure a question like that !! MORE! you need to ask what they are about what would they say if they could sum themselves and their path up or something more On Point!
um what if you are both Up and Down?
or at-least feel that you are both but not exactly simultaneously.
I love his talk wow what a mantra “get outside your mental box and take risks” the Bigger the better! that’s the way to live!
Like, Like, Like Morgan. Great job.
this entire thing is just one big advertising inception and I love it.
This was amazing to watch while blazed.
In my list of ideal, Morgan Spurlock just took a place. Much love from Germany.
RIP Morgan I loved your film style.
So *this "TED Talk" was an entire PR Marketing ploy for that documentary he was referring to.*
marketception
+Thingonometry - TedCeption.
+blognewb It says this in the description though
Henry smith He said it himself
blognewb So i'm confused what's wrong about this then? His whole point was to be transparent and bring insight into how it all works. Just my opinion
Probably one of the best TED Talks I have seen yet.
Great talk, I kind of liked the idea.
Great marketing strategist and implementer both at the same time! A go getter! Take risks, take that plunge. Risks = Rewards. Repeated Rejections = Sure Success one fine day.
Haha I didn't know who he was until he brought up the 'super size me' thing
Sian B. he also did super high me about marijuana
Elias Silva Nope, that was someone else. A comedian. Not Morgan Spurlock.
yup...my mistake. I saw them both around the same time several years ago. Thought it was the same dude. Thanks for clearing that up. Both good docs imo..
after 20 minutes, I lost track of what is going on with this talk LOL gotta rewatch someday
.
Can we get Morgan to report the nightly news anytime soon? The truth would be refreshing.
Most amazing TED talk yet.
Its great experience to watch ted talks
Great Video! Fantastic job on this video.
I like how there's two people making-out in the background of the picture of his father @8:11
There's an ending begging for an encore...
of the first transparency
pic he put up...
of the model with the see-through blouse.
He could have said, embrace that transparency buddy!
Seriously I hope the best for EMC squared and for Morgan's for like this was a brilliant talk!!!
Goodness gracious. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a Ted talk that was so focused on a single egotistical individual. This Ted talk wasn’t about anything, except how great Morgan Spurlock is.
Great video, amazing person and an amazing talker. Must watch.
How did they not immediately say "BANtastic"? It hit me right away so what do you all think?
Excessive Video! Great work.
I was so expecting "Cool Whip" to have bought the talk. As Matt Patt would say "Not a sponsor. Just a fan!"
Big Video!I really like it! It assisted me a lot!
i googled transparency
SAME! hahaha
Yep, me too, it WAS there, though it was a few rows down.
yeah me too
good stuff bro
same
yeah it's there.
Eminent Video! Fantastic job on this video.
"My brand is FedEx, because I deliver the goods" sounds like a great sex line.
Thank you Morgan.
The good part of the whole interview was the guy who embodied the average author during the questioning
this is one of my best ted talk ever. simple, funny and lovely idea.
i get the title now... kinda click bait, but still awesome!
No, absolutely note! He hid what was otherwise a very boring TedTalk in a click-baity title which suggested entertainment. However, what we got was essentially a long, drawn-out marketing advertisement about a film which attempts to give the viewer a transparent look at marketing. Basically, he used the same disguises large marketing firms use to sell us crap, but he did it to sell what is probably a shitty documentary. Either he planned this, in which case he is very intelligent, or he didn't, in which case he is an idiot.
i wouldn't say click bait because he was talking about the greater movie ever sold and things like that which is related
RIP Morgan!! God surely takes the best… rest easy!!
The fact that TED talkers need to pay something like $8000 to maintain their presence at TED talks is just ridiculous.
danpt2000 i agree. as much as I respect TEd's contributions, why does it cost so much? What do they use that money for? as people just come and give talks
Milind Joshi locations, employees
Milind Joshi It's top of the line academics from world leaders, the cost is fine.
Charles Smitherman Yes, but shouldn't the speakers get paid instead of paying the $8000?
danpt2000 if Ted pays, Ted must take the money somewhere, so sponsors. when all is linked to sponsors, the freedom of speech becomes zero. This is why you pay Ted (you pay the lights, the theatre etc), and Ted doesn't pays you, because Ted intentionally chooses not to be linked to sponsors.
Loved the message in this video.
THIS DUDE IS FREAKING HILARIOUS!!!! xDD
transparency offers instant connection, at the end business is about TRUST!
"but i do often find myself at the intersection of dark glamour and casual fly"
Terrific Video! Great work.
All I can say is "Thank You".
What a fantastic Video!I really love it! It helped me a lot!
Man: My Brand is Fedex because I deliver the goods.
Me: best catchphrase I’ve ever heard in my entire life.
My name might not be free Flintstone, but I can make the bedrock! How bout this catch phrase?
I literally read your comment as he said it
I forgot how much I like this Spurlock guy
EMC2 paid for the naming rights on this talk. Their name should be in the title.
SusanBailey AmazingEstate it’s part of the ambiance
Groovy Video! Thank you
Morgan: What is brand?
Lady: .....
brand is blank....
Me: 😂😂 very upfront with that question.
Major Video! Thank you
He did this so well because it was probably his script for pitching this movie to those companies 😂
So brilliant on so many levels.
Got me. I watched!
Best talk i've watched this week.
He wasn't lying about the google search.
i can't find it rn
Awesome talk!! This is cool!
great speaker
Awesome talk.

Morgan Spurlock the prankster of social commentary. Ted Talks , PBS style infotainment for the masses.
I have spent half of my life watching Ted Talks.
Transparency = truth and honesty,
Yes we could do with more of that.
Clever idea, the Ban brand brainstorm scene was awkward. :-)
Glenn Smith I didn’t understand him until he displays those personalities brands.
The greatest TED Talk ever sold - now you know what it means
I googled images for "transparency" 6:20
Nothing
but transparency girl may work :)
No tits in 2019
What a way to present Morgan !
This is the kind of talk that you liked along the way but barely retained any from by the end.
Wow! Well the title of this TED talked pulled it together and how relevant a company too...nice
that would be the best movie ever
Morgan was a great man.

Who is this Melissa Mensen you mentioned at the last paragraph of your write up, have got some cash to invest in something reasonable??
You rock! Excellent talk!!!
That is EMC squared!
If you watch until end, It feels like he is the definition of survival bandit.
I thought It was bought by CoolWhip.
*stewie voice* "cool hwip"

the Deliverance banjo playing at 7:30 was hilarious
