I have time and money invested in an original concept for an upcoming Zooppa contest ad. Two days ago a commercial airs for the first time on national TV with a concept eerily similar to mine. The concept is similar enough that you know what people will say as soon as you post it. So what do you do? Scrap everything and start over or follow through to completion and suffer the wrath of your colleagues with accusations of plagarism?

I already know the answer but I’m pissed and disappointed at the same time and wanted to vent.

Hello! I sincerely think that you should not do your a concern. Zoop is certainly open to the world, has not been that much easier to copy or imitate you Regards

Hey ApertureStudios-

That stinks.

But you know what you have to do. You’ve already put time & energy into this concept.

At least you gave a heads up to the forum – that way you can point back here and say “told ya so”.
