2019 Inside That Ad’s Super Bowl Central
The Super Bowl Sunday isn’t just a day for watching football and eating snacks. Viewers also love to sit in front of their televisions and watch flashy commercials that companies spend millions of dollars to make. Well, before today’s big game I thought I would share with you some of the commercials that will be airing during today’s game. I have to be honest with you, the fact that some of these ads have already appeared on the wonderful, wild Internet is somewhat of a let down for me. Why do you ask? Because you lose some of the excitement of seeing a wonderful ad for the first time, live during the big…
Pepsi Trolling Coke Before the Super Bowl
Pepsi is trolling Coke because they are on Coke’s home turf while they are the main sponsor for the NFL in Coke’s home city. Pepsi is demonstrating its cleverness via 350 ads on billboards, recycling bins and even the walls of train stations.
Inside That Ad A Trailer – Annihilation
Annihlation, The latest in ITA’s movie adventures was this work of fantasy fiction above. The movie starring Natalie Portman, a biologist named Lena has survived a cataclysmic event. Sitting in an isolation chamber, surrounded by unnerved people in hazmat suits, she’s interrogated about what just happened to her. In the process, she reveals who among the yet-to-be-introduced cast of characters who survives, and who dies. And the scene makes it clear that while some of her companions may be alive, she’s the only one who made it back to report these would be world ending events. Let me be honest and get straight to the point. The movie started off as a…
Nike’s New Nothing Beats a Londoner
Some Nike commercials are as memorable for their camerawork, and the way they’re shot, as for their celebrity stars or message of inspiration. Guy Ritchie’s stunning 2008 spot “Take It to the Next Level” immediately comes to mind. A decade later, the brand’s newest effort from Wieden + Kennedy London, titled “Nothing Beats a Londoner,” is likewise technically breathtaking, in part thanks to the efforts of Riff Raff directors Megaforce.

Billionaires Impeachment Ad After World Series Game One
Today, I was watching game 1 of the World Series (Go Dodgers) and Tom Steyer’s (a billionaire) impeachment ad comes on my TV screen. Where he’s promoting a campaign to impeach the current, sitting President, President Donald J. Trump.
Leather and Cookies by Axe
Way back in the 1970s, a team at Ogilvy came up with the timeless phrase “Two great tastes that taste great together.” That classic bit of copywriting described the irresistible combination of chocolate and peanut butter in Reese’s cups. But it could apply to almost any two seemingly incongruous flavors, smells or other sensations, including … leather and cookies? Since its 1984 debut, Axe has given the teenage boys of the world many classic bodywash and bodyspray scents, including Africa, Anti-Hangover and Denim. But this new product may be its oddest yet. The Unilever brand turned to German creative agency Dokyo to help promote the impossible combination of Leather +…
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…
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…
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. At the and of the tumbling journey of the blue pill it was swallowed by the The Fiat 500X which made…
