The above link takes you to the newer Verizon Wireless commercials made by
McCann Erikson Worldwide. I find these very entertaining. This one is influenced by the film, The Shining, by incorporating two twins talking about a "dead zone" other cell phone sometimes get.

This Ad from
Ogilvy and Mather Worldwide for Dove is absolutely amazing. Dove strives to get rid of this distorted body image young girls have of themselves. This ad shows how much work and effort go into these "perfect" faces of these models. This commercial shows the real aspect of this and the basic overall point to this commercial is to show that everyone is beautiful, you shouldn't base yourself on others. This ad is very eye catching and definately gets right to the point, and targets the appropriate market.

The above link takes you to a Budweiser commercial done by DDB Worldwide. This commercial drew me in right away. It didnt actually show what the commercial was advertising for untill the end, but the ad overall made you want to keep watching to see what it was truly about. The dog shown is so cute, the commercial would appeal not only to the Budweiser beer drinker, but also children and others since it is a family appropriate commercial.
