    A Look at the Birds and the Bees

    Wednesday, May 6th, 2009 / No Comments

    This gives a whole new meaning to the phrase “Let’s talk about the birds and the bees.” The creators of this print truly thought outside the box and produced something truly creative. The ads were created for a sex boutique in Denmark called Lust. The illustrations visually portray the phrase using the things that we don’t consider sexual at all.By the way, I found this ad through one of my favorite ad blogs, Adfreak. Grey København created the ads. You can see more ads by clicking on the title of this post. Best,A.B.

    Dream Job in the Ad Business

    Tuesday, May 5th, 2009 / No Comments

    Find more videos like this on AdGabber The title of this post might be a bit misleading and no my dream job is not to karaoke to the song, “Hey Jude” in the middle of Trafalgar Square in London. But it is my dream to coordinate large events for agency clients such as the one shown above sponsored by T-Mobile and coordinated by Saatchi & Saatchi. Can you imagine what kind of planning it takes to put on an event like this? There is so many little things that go into planning an event like this that nobody thinks about. Here is what Saatchi & Saatchi coordinated for T-Mobile: The…

    BO, Disgusting yet Funny

    Tuesday, May 5th, 2009 / No Comments

    The commercial above is one of those “it’s so disgusting it’s funny” kind of ads. It makes you wonder what kind of drugs the creative directors are on to be able to come up with stuff like this. The whole premise of this spot is that the guy is sweating so much that he unleashes a waterfall whenever he gets close to another person. People have to use ponchos in the sun because how much the man sweats when he is close by. Only the Axe Dry deodorant being promoted can help. The spot was created by Ponce Buenos Aires. The link is to another spot created by the agency.…

    Arby’s Sweet Cherry Pie

    Monday, May 4th, 2009 / No Comments

    I wanted to discuss the T.V. spot above for Arby’s bacon cheddar roast burger in comparison to the Mercedes Benz post I wrote about earlier. Simply put the spot above is funny, it makes sense, and it’s memorable. In this spot it is easy to make the connection between the greasy burger and the missing four digits of the phone number. In the Mercedes spot what’s the connection between the monsters and the car itself? There may have been a connection I just couldn’t see it. Arby’s made the connection between the beautiful girl (Tori Praver) and the guy on the bench trying to get her number. The spot was…

    Mercedes, I Don’t Get It

    Monday, May 4th, 2009 / 1 Comment

    I saw this Mercedes Benz spot on one of my favorite ad blogs (besides this one of course) but I don’t get it. The main scene focuses on the car, driving at night, from the point of view of the headlights. Then the car makes a stop in the road to kick out these monsters that appear in your dreams (or did they mean nightmares). My point is, what were they trying to say with this spot? Were they trying to say that the Mercedes is so comfortable that you would fall asleep behind the wheel? Well crashing your brand new Mercedes because you fell asleep behind the wheel will…

    Adidas Reaching the Ladies

    Wednesday, April 29th, 2009 / 2 Comments

    About three days ago, one of the readers of my blog alerted me to a new campaign by Adidas known as “Jersey Swap.” The campaign was designed to encourage women to show support for rugby in New Zealand. Adidas would like women to actively show their support for the 14 rugby teams. They could even have their two favorite players swap jerseys. You can get to the site by clicking here. Now here is where the sexual innuendos come in to play. After the players swap jerseys they don’t even put them on they simply drape them over one shoulder. Adidas even places a button on the site that makes…

    Pepsi’s I’m Good

    Tuesday, April 28th, 2009 / 1 Comment

    I saw the above Pepsi Max spot during last night’s Laker game against the Jazz and must admit I fell out of my chair because of laughing so hard. The ad is more of a slapstick comedy routine versus true promotion of a product. Several guys from the commercial would have severe brain damage if the ad was “real.” I should probably feel bad for finding humor in grown men hurting themselves and then quickly proclaiming, “I’m good.” But doesn’t our culture condone watching people hurt themselves for our amusement? I mean that why the ad above is so funny, right? The ad agency is once again TBWA Chiat/Day, I…

    Absolut Hugs

    Monday, April 27th, 2009 / No Comments

    Several months ago, on February 10th to be exact I wrote about Absolut and how it became the first distilled spirits company to have a commercial appear on prime time CBS owned station. The above spot is another commercial in the “Absolut World” campaign. In an “Absolut World” hugs and kisses are the currency of choice traded for real world items. The spot above is the UK version of the ad. To me, the spot seemed a bit “loving” which is not usually a word you would use to describe anything related to vodka. The song in the spot is “Money makes the World go Around” goes well with the…

    Cavs Playoff Proposal

    Friday, April 24th, 2009 / No Comments

    I thought the spot above was extremely funny. It a parody on the Heineken commercial created by TBWA\NEBOKO in the Netherlands. Except in the Cleveland Cavaliers commercial they are screaming about shoes while the ladies in the other room are going wild about an engagement. I prefer the Cavs version a lot more then that of the beer brand. It a lot more humorous then its beer counterpart. I feel like I’ve seen so many beer spots that I’ve actully grown tired of them. But to see a pro sports team making fun of themselves, that’s not something you see everyday. The one thing I can’t find about the Cavs…

    Ads in Private Parts

    Wednesday, April 22nd, 2009 / No Comments

    The ad above appeared on another advertising blog around the 16th of this month but I thought the execution was so unique I had to discuss it in my own blog. The image above would be considered out-of-home advertising. The sponsor for this ad was Silk Soft. The message that Soft Silk was trying to communicate is that their tissue is 100% recycled. I’m not sure if recycled toilet paper is such a good thing. I’ve heard that Starbucks recycles cups and if you do a DNA test on a recycled used cup, you will more then likely find the DNA of more then just the last user. Obviously, this…
