Crispin Porter + Bogusky, Miami:



This is an ad for one of CPB's smaller clients, Domino's Pizza. My group used this ad for our agency presentation and I just thought it was a light spot that was a funny intro to a new product.. even though Pizza Hut came out with the whole pasta idea first. This is definitely not on the same page with other CPB ads like the German engineering ones we saw in class, sometimes they are just really off the wall but I loved learning about them!




This promo for the Ad Council, also by CPB, is more along the lines of the agency's personality. It's obviously meant to be a play on words and my first reaction was, "what the heck does that have to do with Ad Council?" But, as I read the fine print, I was shocked at the statistics for what the message was really trying to convey. On a totally different note, if you haven't seen the Ad Council spot promoting fatherhood and involvement in kids' lives with the cheerleading dad, you have to go watch it! I absolutely love it and thing it is so poignant.

VitroRobertson, San Diego:



Again with the golf ads, I'm sorry but most of them are either spot on or brilliant so either way, I have to use them. Having David Fehrety is always a plus and if you don't know who he is, well, he's the guy in this ad with a wicked awesome accent that makes everything better. His other commercials for Cobra are hilarious but I liked the golfer in this one. Pretty self-explanatory.

Cliff Freeman & Partners, NY:



Even though Cliff Freeman does work for two of my favorite eating establishments, Quizno's and Baskin Robin's, I wasn't a huge fan of a majority of their current work on the website. So instead, I found this throwback for Little Caesar's. And by throwback, I mean, holy cow this was when delivery was a big deal. Now, we expect Jimmy John's to have someone bike over one lousy sandwich because we're too lazy to haul our butts over there. I really dig the uniforms shown here too.

Kirshenbaum Bond, NY:



Nothing like a strange viral video to start your day off right. This one actually made me jump a little, not going to lie. Although the Guitar Hero video will probably always be my favorite viral ad, this one was pretty cool too. They never mention Wendy's (even though the burger used is really distinct) forcing you to give in to your curiosity and visit the website of whatever these so called, "meatatarians."
