Okay so we've spoken about how off the mark the 'True Beer" talking-wheatstalk is, but what about Firestone. It's more subtle, granted, but check this out:
The music starts out, and then a black dude lifts his cupped hands to his mouth. You hear a sort of hooting noise, and then the black dude really goes ballistic. Only one problem, there's no noise to go with that... He he. Now it's a pretty funny ad to watch.
Meanwhile a buddy of mine has just had his...a sample of his music accepted as the jingle for a TV ad which will be flighted on MNET soon. The ad is for some or other hospice; it features a hand drawn cartoon and something about kids. Will ask Alan to email me the video.
Meanwhile, I really enjoy the Vodacom VUYO radio ads. It features this aggro black dude pushing around his assistant, askinf stuff like: "Do you think I'm a canine? Because I'm in the dog box." Classic.
