Apple Get A Mac Mac VS PC "Bean Counter" Commercial

New Mac VS PC "Bean Counter" commercial.
Apple creates another funny commercial in the Mac VS PC advertising saga. The newest commercial release titled "Bean Counter" takes a good shot at Vista. Our favorite PC is sitting back adding more money to be spent on Vista advertising and very little to fixing all the problems with Vista. Of course, with the suggestion by Mac, PC decides to spend all the money on advertising and leave Vista just the way it is. It is a funny commercial.

The Brazilian press Assoc. has been fighting for 100 years so know one will change a single comma from your information. This is brilliant how powerful the comma can be: A comma can be used as a pause, it can make your money disappear, a comma can accuse the wrong person, a comma can change everything.

Sony Bravia Domino City Commercial

Sony Bravia Domino City Commercial, another beautiful commercial epic from Sony. The spot was shot entirely on location in India, and the Sony dominoes runs to the Taj Mahal in Agra. The music is beautiful, anyone know the artist.



Sonal Dabral, of Bates141, Singapore, explains the idea behind the Sony Domino's commercial:

“In this commercial we introduce the large dominoes into the setting with an intriguing chemistry of hyper-real dominoes set against the exotic naturalism of the location. The vibrancy and accuracy of the new BRAVIA is perfectly illustrated by the colorful dominoes. These dominoes are the full gambit – the full spectrum of colour, seen in among the hennas and browns and ivories of this earthy place. The environment offered a great canvas for us to reinforce the spectrum of color for BRAVIA, set against the primarily sepia, monochromatic locations.”

Nissan Crossovers Murano VS Qashqai +2

New Nissan Crossovers commercial, The new Murano VS. Qashqai +2 dancing battle commercial, now this is the way all advertising should be done.



Nissan Commercial Credits: via
advertolog.com

This fall Nissan Europe will be launching 2 new models: the New Murano (in October) and the New Qashqai+2 (in September). With the launch of Qashqai in 2007, these 2 new models will make Nissan the first car manufacturer to have a unique Crossover range.
In a soon-to-be cluttered segment by 2010 where competitors will have more media fire power, the strategic challenge was to benefit from a first entrant advantage and establish a clear positioning for Nissan crossovers with the aim to be perceived as the most daring ones. The comms strategy was to leverage Qashqai’s urbanproof positioning and extend it to the whole range to fit the same target mindset: people who embrace the unexpected, thrive on novelty and love to anticipate change. Nissan crossovers share the same urban proof attitude.

TBWA\G1 and TBWA\Paris took on the challenge and found a creative idea that would allow individual cars from the range to express their unique personality yet be part of the same family. What if Murano and Qashqai were actually two Gangs from a City … Murano comes from the upscale part of the city while Qashqai and Qashqai +2 come from the more gritty areas. Murano is refined and imposing while Qashqai is quick and agile. These two gangs like to challenge each other but as they both own the city, they also share similar values and respect each other. They will settle their differences through a dance battle where each of their moves reflect their respective attitude and personality before ending in a beautifully choreographed finale inspired from classic American musicals.

TBWA\ and Nissan have chosen the famous French director Frederic Planchon to shoot this TVC. The film was shot in Berlin for 5 days. All post-production work including CGI was handled by BUF in Paris, taking almost 2 months for completion.


The campaign will be aired in 25 European countries from October 2008 in 60 sec, 40 and 30 sec formats.

1984 Apple SuperBowl Ad Introducing The Mac

In 1984, back when the Macintosh was considered a subversive, counter-culture tool (which of course it was), Apple Computer launched the Mac with a single broadcast of the now famous $1.5 million commercial based on George Orwell's 1984, and directed by Ridley Scott (Alien, Blade Runner, Thelma & Louise, Gladiator, Kingdom of Heaven).
The commercial was broadcast during the 1984 Super Bowl XVIII. Steve Jobs' intention with the ad was to equate Big Brother with the IBM PCand a nameless female action hero, portrayed by Anya Major, with the Macintosh. The 1984 Apple ad was a subset of Ridley's direction of Blade Runner, starring Harrison Ford.

Today Blade Runner is considered one of the most important science fiction films of the 20th century and is usually discussed along with William Gibson's novel Neuromancer as initiating the cyberpunk genre.

Scott personally supervised a digitally restored Blade Runner and approved the Final Cut, which is to be finally released in 2007.

Zales Love Rocks "String" Commercial

Zales Jewelers Love Rocks commercial titled "String".
An absolutely beautiful commercial for Zales Jewelers, featuring the music of Robert Francis. The original romantic ballad is written by Robert entitled "Don't Forget Love" and he sings it beautifully. Nicole Dionne of PrimalScream, the Music's creative director said: "I knew that Robert was the ideal choice to elicit the emotional overtones of the spot. He is an incredibly talented songwriter and his authentic, acoustic style perfectly captures the raw emotion and longing required to underscore the visuals."



Well done, The Richards Group should be present at the advertising award shows for sure this year. I'm sure thanks to the Zales commercial we will be hearing more music from Robert Francis.

LaDainian Tomlinson and Troy Polamalu for Nike Leave Nothing Commercial "Fate"

Leave Nothing-Fate-Nike Commercial
LaDainian Tomlinson and Troy Polamalu star in the new Nike football commercial "Fate", Leave Nothing. Wieden & Kennedy create another great Nike commercial and released at the perfect time as the NFL season starts to heat up after week 6.



Nike uses two of the most popular stars in the NFL in Tomlinson and Polamalu for this commercial where we see them as newborns and grow into football stars and "Fate" would lead them to finally meet in an NFL game.

Update number two: The music featured in the Nike commercial with Polamalu and Tomlinson Leave Nothing commercial is originally from the movie "The Good, The Bad & The Ugly, created by Ennio Morricone - The Ecstasy of Gold, the beat was redone by Jay Z for this commercial.

The music for the Nike Fate commercial is a specific beat form the song called "Blueprint 2" by Jay-Z, but I have also been told the song is from the good the bad and the ugly, the cemetery scene at the end.
I should add that in Italian, it's called "L'estasi Dell'oro".

This commercial is becoming so popular, and football fans are just loving it, lets hope Nike saves this one and creates a new version for this years SuperBowl.

"The Trident Girls" Trident Insurance UK Commercial

Sexy Trident Commercial - Insurance
Trident Insurance from the UK released this rather interesting commercial using what is being tagged as "The Trident Girls" to sell insurance. Trident admits that dealing with insurance is dull, with all those terms and conditions, with the use of the Trident Girls they are going to give their customers top dollar service and no compromises.



Trident did not have much success with the Get It On campaign -the clip below- so I can only assume that the new approach using the Trident Girls to sell insurance just might work out better for them. Judging by the view count it is working.



Commercial credits to follow. If any of you have any info on the Trident Insurance campaigns please share it with us.

Mercedes Benz Crash Test

Mercedes-Benz
"Some Tests You're Better Off Not Doing Yourself"
Mercedes Benz Crash Test AdvertClick to enlarge image, I love how Mercedes Benz placed a real woman in the drivers seat to further enhance the message in this print advert.
The Dutch Cancer Society decided this past August/2008 that they would not recommend women to preform their own monthly breast exams. Research suggested that self examinations neither lead to early detection or lower mortality rates in breast cancer, and some disadvantages to preforming self exams as opposed to being examined by a professional.

Having said that: the month of October has focused on breast cancer for several years now, and the Pink Ribbon magazine was launched within this context in 2004. All the proceeds of the publication go to the breast cancer foundation. Mercedes-Benz placed a 1/1 advertisement in this magazine again this year. Just like last year’s placement, this advertisement focuses on the correlation between breast cancer research and the research that Mercedes Benz continually conducts to make its cars safer for people.

The theme of this year’s advertisement is ‘self-examination is good, but examination by experts is better’.
