Toyota: Is That the Lineman?

"During televised soccer games, viewers are used to the camera cutting to other action, such as a coach shouting from the sideline. It struck the Conill creatives that they could buy the space along the bottom of the TV screen and insert entertaining 15-second videos that looked like they were part of the game".

Microsoft Vista - New Family.

"Microsoft comes forward with its second Windows commercial, starring the same Jerry Seinfeld and Bill Gates. The video is a bit longer and also funnier than people expected, lasting for four and a half minutes filled with the comedian’s trademark humor and also Gates’ input, which gets better as he gathers experience in front of the camera."
The article continues @ eFluxMedia.

"Continua la messa on line dei nuovi spot Microsoft con protagonisti Bill Gates e Jerry Seinfeld. Il nuovo episodio (titolo "New Family", più simile ad un episodio di una sit-com per lunghezza, 4,5 minuti, e taglio filmico che ad uno spot) mostra i due amici alle prese con una famiglia normale, tipicamente americana che, almeno così si comprende, li ha ospitati a casa propria. Tra nonne che non prendono molto la loro presenza, cene cinesi in consegna con imbarazzati ed impacciati ragazzi delle consegne stupiti della presenza dei due "più rispettati tipi nel loro settore", piscine da pulire, giraffe in plastica che spariscono, lo spot ancora un volta mette ai margini sia Microsoft che la tematica tecnologica."

Italian ad. Alfa Romeo MiTo.

Something outstanding in italian advertising. Talking about this, someone recalls another campaign. However, in my opinion, it's a great campaign. "Create and share your MiToclip here".
