Life Flows Better With Visa

I like finding the creativity when a world event is to showcase. You have to picture your ad across many languages and cultures. And it seems like the World Cup is the one thing that can bring everything together.

Hungry Hungry Eat Head

A live camera stramed images of pedestrians from the square. Using augmented reality capabilities, participants would hold images that the software would replace their human heads with fun cartoon visages and abstract monstrous faces.

Created by Hudson-Powell, Joel Gethin Lewis and Bren O’Callaghan, Hungry Hungry Eat Head occupied the Big Screen in Edinburgh.

Where's the Pitch?

With the FIFA World Cup just under 100 days away, ads have been gearing up to promote the sport and show support for Africa. Pepsi creates this spot that just does that with light-hearted comedy and representing a sense of community. You don't have to be a football fan to appreciate this warm-spirited spot for Pepsi Max



For the non-soccer fans, those Pepsi-shirt clad men are some of the finest in the sport today.

Slow Motion Pedigree Dogs

Slow motion is awesome. Add some dogs and you pretty much reach any audience and demographic. Feed the pups well and you just might have a marketing strategy.




TBWA.

Show Me Your Poker Face

Man with no emotion or the best poker face in the world. Phil Ivey "shows" a sense of humor with this classic spot. Full Tilt Poker.

Playing Under the Lights

The ad cleverly reinforces the night aspect of the game by having a player on the billboard interact with the "moon".

Last.fm Screw Up

Not to often you see a social network with a television spot. Last.fm makes light of a first date. This is one that creates some confusion between a father and a young boy looking to take his daughter out in the early 1960s.



Thanks to my mom for the video.
