Alright, ad nerds. If you were hoping on using tilt shift in an ad, it’s officially done. But what better way to do it than with the best? Keith Loutit is the tilt master. I’ve stared at his magical little wonderland illusions wayyy too often. This spot he did for HP and agency McGarryBowen is like a nice way to bring it all home. Thank you tilt shift, and good night.
Great promotion for the new line of PUMA Bodywear. When the market goes down, the clothes come off. Brilliant.
Not as useful as the new Flickr App from Yahoo! or the Priceless Picks App from Mastercard, but what’s your ratio of useful to useless-but-nearly-naked apps anyway? And have you seen the market?
Wow. What a wonderfully told story. And all in one 6-minute take.
Nice delivery by Robert Carlyle. I know it’s just natural, but that’s one terrific Scottish accent. It’s almost as captivating as Family Guy‘s fake Jeff Goldblum. Almost. (via Gregg Blanchard)
The biggest crime on this Microsoft ad isn’t versioning out nationalities for placement in different countries. That could be argued endlessly. No. It’s the horrible Photoshop job. The neck. The hands. Dear lord, the hands.
Friends of the Umlaut Rich and Malcolm took the initiative to instigate a good ol’ Photoshop contest.
