The text on the site of a European production house is, understandably, less-than fluent English. This leaves me wondering what the difference between the two is, when they ask for a "general" demo and an "institutional" demo.

Any ideas? Thanks.

My guess in "general" is for anything you've voiced that features a little military man running around selling insurance, and an institutional demo features reads of yours that sound like you're trying to lure someone into the van for a trip back to the "happy place".

Hmmm.... on second thought, maybe they're "a little bit of everything" and "industrial" demos?

I vote for "happy place".

Ha! I may need a happy place before too long.

Industrial may be what they mean as, under "narrative," they give audio books and audio tours as examples (no examples under any other category).

Thanks, Bruce.
