Publicis Groupe

Publicis

This ad by Publicis & Hal Riney for US Cellular is an artful approach to cellular advertising. It urges consumers to think about the people in their phone rather than just talking about network sizes, promising a program that saves all the contacts in your phone.



Saatchi and Saatchi

This ad by Saatchi and Saatchi New Zealand for Toyota is about more than just selling a car. In this ad, the toyota is a prop on the way to your dreams. This was such a clever and funny way to promote toyota trucks.



Leo Burnett

This ad was a promotion for star wars in a McDonalds ad, or a promotion for McDonalds in a star wars ad by Leo Burnett. This was a typical case of borrowing interest from another product in an ad. I didn't see how the two connected in the ad at all.



Fallon Worldwide

This ad for Citi bank by Fallon Worldwide, Minneapoilis is a sweet albeit corny commercial. Advertisers are getting creative with the current economic recession and finding ways to promote living a good life rather than just living a wealthy life.



Kaplan Thaler Group

Kaplan Thaler Group is responsible for all of those swiffer commercials where the old mop is trying to get the attention of the swiffer enligtened housewife. I thought they were funny at first but I am soon approaching burnout as all the variations of this ad are the same. If they are going to stick with this idea they need to at least to something different with it.



Team One Advertising

This ad by Team One advertising for Lexus presents some cool imagery with the turning table in between the two cars, yet still doesn't scream new or different car commercial, but rather is exactly what you would expect from a car commercial.
