Firstly, the white horses Guinness. This is such a beautiful advert, I can't understand why anyone can't like it...
The peace and tranquility of the sea disturbed suddenly as the sea opens, and the waiting ends... the birds eye view of the sea is amazing, and the use of horses, powerful voice over and music make this advert no less than inspiring.
The second one some may have not seen, as it's a bit old. It was made by a newspaper, the Guardian, as that website Mr Neil provided has shown me.
Anyway, it's excellent. The whole premise is never judge something unless you've seen the whole story, and is utterly perfect. The advert is simple a single event, and is shot from three different camera angles.
The first one shows a man running down a street. Nothing much there... you don't really learn anything, and you don't really become interested in what's going on.
The next camera angle shows the man running again, but this time he's running towards another man carrying a briefcase, and you can see that the running man goes to grab the man with the briefcase, and it appears that he's trying to steal the briefcase. This is filmed perfectly, and I think really applies to the subject, being the newspaper, and how stories can become twisted.
And then you see the third camera angle... which explains everything. The man running down the street is indeed running towards the briefcase man, and now you can see why. A large amount of bricks are about to fall on briefcase man, and in a matter of seconds, the running man saves his life. It shows how a criminal can be changed into a hero simply by changing the viewpoint.
Ok, so your favourite adverts please. :0)
I better go write a topic complaining about
> how tight fisted and unfair the judges are...
Again? ;)
Back on the advert topic, I like the Heineken one, with Paul Daniels.
"Buy Heineken or we'll keep screening this advert"
classic
I better go write a topic complaining about how tight fisted and unfair the judges are... I NEVER win. I'm leaving.
For those who have not seen it, it has the Mouse dancing after the man has brought the Aero.

They were rubbish.
