FIFA Fever is Hitting

25, May 2010

Thanks to co-worker Jeff for sending these around, you can tell FIFA fever is going to hit soon and hard. The Pepsi commercial is good: The FIFA 10 commercial is better: The Nike commercial is unbelievable: NIKE WRITE THE FUTURE – FULL LENGTH VERSION @ Yahoo! Video Gosh, do I love great ads.

Ok. Men, women, watch this video. And then let’s chat. “The result: More happy men at bars. Less broken up couples.” Ahhhhhhhhhhhrgh! Because, I, as one part of couple, absolutely want to be in a relationship with a person who lies to me about where he is. THAT, according to Cerveza Andes, is a good [...]

This. Is. Awesome. Great creative from Puma.

I’ve known I’ve wanted to be in advertising since I was probably 14 or 15. I wouldn’t be able to explain to you why but I have always been drawn to the field. That said, I never really pictured myself working in digital advertising when I was younger and thinking of the big, awesome advertising [...]

I admit it, I freaking love the Knorr Sidekicks commercials as of late. Created by DDB, Toronto, it all started with this gem: Adorable. People liked it; they felt sorry for poor ol’ Salty. It conveyed the message well (thanks to Knorr, you won’t need Salty around anymore) but kept it lighthearted. And Salty was [...]

I don’t… get… this ad? What kind of brief was this? And the clients were… pleased with the results? That said, the YouTube ad has over 700 comments, so clearly its doing its job of getting talked about. Not sure I agree with harukalioncourt who said: This is one of the most creative commericals [sic] I [...]

I know I’ve been posting a lot of YouTube videos lately and I swear I do have ideas for more content-driven posts but I had to – had to! – post this. Not only is it funny but it’s actually surprisingly well done. I wish I was a bit more of a font geek… Sigh. [...]

How great is Sesame Street? I mean, really, this is bang on. It’s hard not laughing out loud in an office but I guarantee I was sitting here at my desk giggling silently. “Happy! Happy! Happy! We’re Happy Men!” Got to wonder, though: Was this really created for children? Or perhaps… the child in us [...]

Great Spot from INPES

29, Nov 2009

As many of my friends know, I dislike smoking. And so I think this spot from INPES (France’s National Institute of Prevention and Health Education) has done a great spot on highlighting how incredibly lucky we all are to be the ones to stand here today and live our lives. Why would we throw our [...]

Just wanted to add an update to my previous post on DDB Canada’s great spot for the Canadian Cancer Society. Mike, from the Canadian Cancer Society, left me a comment letting me know that these were indeed real people who were either patients, survivors or caregivers. That’s really, really great to hear. That makes this [...]
