More TV Adverts

Written on November 17, 2005 – 10:16 pm | by Duncan |

It’s been a busy week at Duncan’s TV Ad Land. Since November 13 I’ve posted on the following television commercials.

XBox Champagne - a baby shoots through a window, ageing into an old man as he flies over the countryside, eventually landing in a grave. “Life is short, play hard”.

Truth Campaign - anti smoking adverts inviting young people to join a movement that challenges powerful companies

XBox 360 Jump In - a water balloon fight to the sounds of Teddy Bear Picnic and a community jump rope exhibition to the sounds of Din Daa Daa.

Unicef Anti-War campaign bombs the Smurfs Village, killing adults and leaving baby smurfs orphaned.

VW Passat - 120 short flash animations

Dirt is Good - the Omo/Persil campaign promoting healthy earthy play

Glue Store Customs - the ad that goes close to the bone on having boogie board bags checked in Indonesian customs.

Nike Squirrel - an ad that encourages people to reincarnate in this life.

Mitsubishi Ultimate - the one where the people move the roads around to provide a challenging twisty course for the powerful but agile 380.

Bud Light Fridge - a Canadian film directed by an Australian - flatmates burrow through the wall into the neighbours’ fridge to pilfer their six pack of Bud Light.

Lynx Jet Fantasy - the one where the guys dream themselves on a flight where women fall over them constantly.

Coming up… advertisements preparing for the White Ribbon Day - challenging violence against women.
