Which I guess answers your question: I hate them all. (And for what it's worth, I'm a former ad copywriter, though not for TV.)alwswritehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15093179251847974173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19628336.post-1136186534312470252006-01-02T02:22:00.000-05:002006-01-02T02:22:00.000-05:00Memestream, two tidbits for yourself and your read...Memestream, two tidbits for yourself and your readers. As you already discovered on my own blog, I'm quite fascinated with Sony's recent Bravia commercial (<A HREF="http://www.bravia-advert.com" REL="nofollow">www.bravia-advert.com</A>).<BR/><BR/>Another advertising campaign that I find completely mind boggling is that of the Apple ipod. Those white headphones against the blacked out dancer have made more money for Apple than they could have ever dreamed.<BR/><BR/>Also, you left a comment asking about my involvement with the entertainment industry, which it just so happens I am. I recently started as a technical director working for Dreamworks Animation. Sort of the opposite of what you did. I'm a computer science graduate that was lured into the world of CG filmmaking.robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16290704245047791036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19628336.post-1136168592685057392006-01-01T21:23:00.000-05:002006-01-01T21:23:00.000-05:00Hi.

When it comes to comments I've found that people comment about specific ads or campaigns that they feel passionate about. If they're mad about something like the ampd mobile senator ad they'll search for somewhere they can have their say. Or if they're rapturous about it they'll look for more information and a place to write about their feelings. But that's the small majority of people - most people are browsing and don't feel comfortable writing back. Perhaps it's the time it takes to write with two fingers. Or maybe it's because we sometimes don't feel qualified to engage with the writer. A forum's a different matter.Duncanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10118954748801764731noreply@blogger.com
