Another brilliant TV ad ^.^

(click on the image to watch the video)

That's a commercial TV ad was made by The London advertising agency Wieden and Kennedy for Honda Accord -- Honda UK in 2003. Acording to Wikipedia, its name is The Cog. After watching it, I just can say "SUPERB !!!" because it is completely based on some simple physical rules and made without any CGI (computer-generated-imagery) or photographic tricks ^.^ It reminds me of the series of Tom and Jerry of which many episodes rely on the idea of physics and interaction.
Like the previous one I've posted, this ad makes you curious to know what'll happen next and before you start to become fed up with the same thing happening and happening again, the main idea starts :)
The background music and sound work well though they don't occur much in this ad. For some who may want to know, that's the song "Rapper's Delight" by The SugarHill Gang. Besides that, I like the man's voice speaking the slogan of Honda Accord: "Isn't it nice, when things just, work?" (it seems to be hard to listen to it =.='') That's the voice of US author Garrison Keillor.
Just enjoy it and comment, please ;)

The GREATEST TV advert ever made ???

I've searched a really really GREAT ad for you guys ^.^ Don't know whether you have watched it or not but I still post it. Its name is Billions.
The content of this ad is fairly cool. 1st, it makes me curious about the behaviour of a running girl. Then I'm so surprised because there're a lot of girls from many places doing the same thing. Last, I find the answer and lolz =))
It comes from Lynx deodorant manufacturer. The main idea of this ad is "Spay More, Get More -- The Lynx Effect". The guy playing the chief role to advertise Lynx deodorant is not kind of handsome or muscular, but I think that's part of intention of the director and designers. Oh no, I can't say more... tee-hee enjoy it and tell me what you think about it ;)
One more thing that I really love this ad is just due to its music and setting. Talking about music, I have to admit that music increases my keen interest in it. I don't know which kind of music it belongs to but obviously it works perfectly. The setting is also an important element letting it succeed... Definitely, the wildness of jungle and the immensity of ocean emphasize the desire of girls who want to take this man for them and peel the meaning of Lynx slogan "Spray More, Get More".
Just because I want to become a director of ad and flash projects, something like this is extremely interesting and helpful to me. However, I think if we could learn the ability of creating deep curiosity and excitement in audiences and apply it to our coming Flash projects, it'd be superb.
I know that it takes time to download this, therefore you'll have to wait a little bit before enjoying it. Have fun, guys ^.^

Update: The background music is "Dies Irae" from Karl Jenkins- Album "Requiem" (it doesn't seem to be in harmony with the slogan, huh? anyway, it still works well)

Some of you may watch it, some may not. However, I'd like to introduce you a very IMPRESSIVE and INTERESTING flash.. truly it's not a normal one, it's an ANIMATED one...
It was made by James Farr. Actually he has created Xombie as an illustrated novel... Xombie has at least 9 chapters as what we can see from Xombie home page
The first feeling when watching this movie is that it looks like nothing other than an animated cartoon. The drawing style of James is really professional, I mean the movement of eyes and bodies are extremely smooth @-) I know there're something wrong with some scenes, but the whole work is totally awesome. In this chapter, you can see fighting scenes were drawn and depicted as they were in the movie. What can makes you disappointed is that appearance of characters is not really cute or beautiful. However, James would let them shine by his own way and express their personas as much as they can!
The second thing that I admire the flash Xombie is its music and sound. Surely most of its music come from famous and talented artists, but what I want to say is he knows how to apply music and sound into his projects efficiently and usefully. If the animation cannot only make you freaked out but also hooked up to the screen, the effect of music and sound can make you scared stiff but feel excited.
Through this flash, I don't mean we have to be as professional as this man does. But we can learn something from him like the movement or the music... they're both really GREAT! Hope you enjoy this and have something useful for your own!!!
Now, it's time for you to have fun, guys ^.^

== c.O.L.o.R. ==

Actually, at first, my idea was based on a big flower with different colors in its petals. Therefore, I used Illustrator to do this; however, I didn't know why the colors became dull and really ugly. Then I had to draw some tiny and lovely flowers here by Photoshop. (Can you guess they're flowers? :| whatever, I tried my best to draw them >"<) Because I had spent so much time on the big flower but it failed totally, I just did some simple work here. It's not a satisfying work, in fact. Hope you like it +_+
