  • Twits: Dramatic Readings of Celebrity Twitter Updates

    September 29th, 2009 / Comments (0)

    Believe it or not, one of the best things happening this fall is actually happening on your computer screen – not your TV. And, surprise surprise, it comes from the Washington Post, not Aaron Spelling.

    A new web series, called Twits, features dramatic readings of Twitter updates by celebrities. The videos were created and directed by Liz Kelly who runs WaPo’s Celebrity Blog. Here comes a little Sean Puffy Combs for you fanboys in Twits Episode 1.

    September 29th, 2009 / Comments (4)

    Levis’ new Go Forth! campaign pairs considered poetry with some gorgeous on-location filming. The whole thing would be pretty stirring if it wasn’t intended to sell us something.

    Call us old school, but we’re big fans of ads that have a beginning, middle and tie things up nicely with an end.

Anybody know who created the animation work?

  • Would You Yahoo! After Seeing this Spot?

    September 28th, 2009 / Comments (1)

    Yahoo! is in the midst of launching a new $100 million advertising campaign based on the themeline, “It’s Y!ou.” The campaign celebrates the advanced social networking capacity of Yahoo! Could be wrong, but we seriously doubt this creative is going to move any mountains for them. Haven’t we heard this message before from someone else? Or not? It’s all just so boring and forgettable.
