Dunder Mifflin Gets a Super Bowl Ad
I was amazed to read that the fictional paper company from the popular TV show “The Office” has become a real company. It became a real company when NBC teamed up with Quill (part of Staples) to market real Dunder Mifflin paper according to AdFreak. The paper became a real product in 2011 and now they are expanding their product lines. Anyway, more good Dunder Mifflin paper, they are getting their own Super Bowl ad. The brand is Crowdsourcing their first TV ad. Dunder Mifflin has teamed up with crowdsourcing platform Tongal to create the ad.

Album Cover Ad Designs?
The Album cover for the for up coming album release from the Yeah Yeah Yeahs titled “Mosquito” has to be one of the crazies pieces of art I’ve seen in a while. Although I have to say, doesn’t this show some similarities to a Megadeath’s 2004 Youthanasia album cover? Check it out below. The Mosquito album cover was designed by South Korean animator Beomsik Shimbe Shim. The design is eye-catching to me because of the agony the Barney looking child seems to be experiencing? It has to be one of the craziest designs ever right? Anyway do you all see the same similarities I do between the two covers? Let…
Paul Bryant Museum Spot
Alabama is a name that has become synonmous with college football dominance. And while the clip below is supposed to be a comedy, there’s a certain amount of believability to it. The University of Alabama’s Paul Bryant Museum created the video in-house and it’s pretty funny, I must admit. The video is titled: “So Many Trophies, So Little Space” you’ll make the connection after watching the video. This is actually the second time I write a post on an ad involving Alabama football in the last coupled of weeks. The first post is: ESPN Roll Tide. These comedic sports ads just capture my interest, I guess. Client: University of Alabama…

ESPN Roll Tide
ESPN and their ad agency Wieden + Kennedy’s “It’s not crazy, it’s sports” campaign have produced a plethora of funny ads highlighting fans’ undying commitment to their teams. But Inside That Ad’s favorite has to be ESPN’s “Roll Tide.” By the way, does anyone know what “Roll Tide” actually means?I saw this ad today while watching the 2012 World Series of Poker on ESPN. Enjoy, I know I did. Best,A.B.
The Everyday Side of Design Expertise
When you think of contemporary product designers, people like Philippe Starck or Jonathan Ive come to mind. We’ve come to see designers as larger-than-life entities, who from some Olympian perch survey the foibles and anxieties of the masses (at least, those with some disposable income) before setting the Chinese factories in motion to crank out yet another disposable bauble. The Fixperts project features a very different side to the practice of design, having as its objective the creation of “meaningful content that showcases how the design process can solve everyday challenges.” Solving everyday challenges. What a concept! Read more at creativebits.org.
