Coca Cola formula


This short and sweet commercial was done by Wieden and Kennedy out of their main Portland office. This ad really shows the world that Coke is a product that has been around for generations and is desired and envied by their competitors. I liked it because i felt that it showed Coke's tradtional image by using a red background with white lettering and then showing the tradtional coke bottle at the end. It was also kind of fiesty and aggressive in a way telling the world "you want our product's secret formula, but you'll never get it and therefore, never be as good as us."

"Just a friend"


This Heineken commercial was done by Wieden and Kennedy out of their Portland office. I absolutely LOVED this commercial. It's just fun and light-hearted. It made me smile watching it and put me in a good mood. We were not shown this commercial in class so I had to include it on my blog because it's pure entertainment.

Wieden and Kennedy- "Pass the Cheer"


We did not see this particular ad in class by Wieden and Kennedy but i wanted to show it because I really enjoyed it. It gave me a "feel good" feeling that I loved. It is an ad for starbucks and something about it instanty drew me in. It had a very childish and fairy tale feel to it that I really enjoyed. It made me think of the Holidays and made me want to be with my family. Wieden and Kennedy did a great job with this ad because they really aimed it towards all ages: children, teens and even adults.

BELIEF DESIGN


This rather bizzare commemrcial was done by VitroRobertson out of their LA office. I found this commercial to be rather strange and was definately not my favorite ad that I've seen so far throughout the semester. But I have to give VitroRobertson credit because it was definately quite unique.

Ford Focus- "beautifully arranged"


This is an ad where I think that art and advertising truly come together. It incorporates music and the product and brings them together as one. This ad was done by Dailey and Associates advertising agency out of their LA office. We talked about the concept of advertising and art in class but after watching this commercial I think it actually comes to life. I believe that advertising is art and this ad is my proof. Arts can be incorporated into advertising and when they do I think the ad becomes that much stronger and has a greater effect on the audience.

Audi Ad


This commerical was done by Venables Bells & Partners out of their main San Francisco office. All of the action in the ad really caught my attention and i loved it!

Alaska Airlines


This commercial was done by Wongdoody advertising agency out of their Seattle office. I loved this commercial because it was so entertaining. I thought that it was a very creative way to advertise for an airlines company. Overall, I thought Wongdoody did a great job with this particular ad.
