SIPA’s Office Antics Get Noticed
It seems that the video produced for Follies that was a parody of The Office has been picked up on Ivygate, which says:
This time the story is set at Columbia University’s School of International and Public Affairs, an institution that we imagine buys red tape by the mile. These are students training to be parts of bureaucratic machinery. Navigating the school’s rigid hierarchy, financial aid office, and shoddy advising system — that’s just part of your education! At the very least, a few students saw enough similarity between their school and the existential mudpit of The Office to write and shoot their own remarkably faithful remake. It’s got the same characters as the NBC version, only everyone is Columbia-fied: Michael Scott burns time surfing J Date. Dwight denies students financial aid. The deans award fellowships by picking out the cutest applicants’ photos and throwing darts at the finalists to determine the winner. It’s worth a gander, but you’ll have to fill out a permission request first.
