Trump-Pence Logo Design is Quickly Replaced
Friday, July 15th, the Republican Presidential candidate Donald Trump got a new running mate and a new campaign logo. The first version of the logo received so much ridicule online and otherwise that it was quickly replaced. Take a look at version one, no wonder people thought “Hey, that logo is NSFW (Not Suitable for Work).
This Condom Maker Just Designed Some Sportswear
A new fashion-flavored campaign is putting a new spin on the idea of a full-body condom. To prove how comfortable its proprietary non-latex material really is, condom brand Skyn decided to create a line of athletic wear, and put it to the test. A smoky, sultry 1:30 ad from Sid Lee Amsterdam features tech-infused clothing designer Pauline von Dongen describing her approach to the project, including dragonfly-wing-inspired flaps on the arms of a shirt, which can supposedly give a long jumper more, um, lift. Client: Skyn Agency: Sid Lee Amsterdam Read more on Adfreak.
Test Drive Canada Campaign
JWT Canada released a digital campaign for Air Canada that advocates people give Canada a test drive by visiting as a tourist prior to moving there. I’d be willing to bet that they came up with this campaign based on research that people are increasing Googling “how to move to Canada” to avoid the possibility of a Trump presidency here in the U.S. The spot begins with an Air Canada ticket agent watching a screen tracking how many Americans are searching for “How can I move to Canada?” — sitting at 1,367,899 as she says, “And there’s another one.” Then she proceeds to mention cultural and geographical differences that we, Americans should…
New Uncle Drew Featuring Kyrie Irving
It’s been a while since Inside That Ad has published a post. It’s been so long that we’ve even lost our original domain name. We are now a .NET instead of a .COM. In any case, to commemorate the City of Cleveland’s first sports victory in 52 years via the Cleveland Cavaliers. Here is another installment of Pepsi’s Uncle Drew. You can see older chapters of this phenomenal Uncle Drew series in a previous post.
Google Commercial: Story of Jacob
So, I missed the ESPY awards today but apparently, Google aired its first television commercial during the show. The commercial, a two-minute-plus spot focus on a gym dedicated to providing transgender athletes a place to work out — known as Jacob & City Gym. Interestingly enough, the commercially aired moments before USWNT star Abby Wambach presented the Arthur Ashe Award for Courage to Caitlyn Jenner. Thought of something else, Why are giving this person an award regardless of his/her courage? Wasn’t he/she responsible for the death of another person? See Google’s debut into television advertising below. My question is this, why is Caitlyn Jenner’s gender identity still being discussed? Why can’t we…
Some of the Most Patriotic Ads
I meant to post this on the 4th but never got around to it. Please forgive my tardiness and enjoy a few patriotic ads on behalf of Inside That Ad. Here are some ads that really love America: Clint Eastwood: Chrysler USA vs England World Cup: Dodge Challenger “Freedom Commercial” Chevy Truck: Our Country
Nike with the World’s Fastest Commercial
The shoe giant Nike recently created the fastest commercial ever advertising their newest Zoom Air sneakers. the spot features some of the world’s best athletes doing what they do best at lightning speed. That lightning speed is demonstrated via time lapse video technology of course. Let me know what you think of the spot down below. The spot was created courtesy of an agency with one of the funniest names I’ve ever heard of “Must Be Something” also based out of Portland. Being in close proximity to your client must provide extra incentive to produce outstanding work. Anyway, let me know what you guys think of the commercial that incidentally takes…
Everyone Gets a Little Excited with Fiat & Viagra
So I’ve wanted to write about this advertisement for quite some time now but just haven’t got around to it. There are some ads that try to fake you out with what they’re trying to advertise and this is a great example of that. Then starts out by showing a young (at heart) couple where the wife is “ready to go-Pun intended.” The husband excitedly runs to the restroom to take a little blue pill. But, alas he accidentally drops it out the window and it goes for a ride through the city. https://youtu.be/7lcc62nrl9Y At the and of the tumbling journey of the blue pill it was swallowed by the The Fiat 500X which…
Provoking Images
Hi World, I recently read a Foreign Policy Magazine article that discussed Saudi Arabia and building weapons technology but that isn’t the main point of this post. my question is why does the image (the attention her of the magazine) have to be so negative? Particularly because Saudi Arabia as a country has never engaged in such activity. But seeing this image without any context enables people to make harsh and unfair judgments without understanding the real issues. It conjures up hate among mankind and I think with the holy month of Ramadan upon us we should a little more to promote love and understanding. But what do I know? The side…
