  • Emotions rule the roost in top international ads

    Emotions rule the roost in top international ads

    MUMBAI: With temperatures dipping and holiday season around the corner, brands overseas are churning out more dollars to advertise and communicate with viewers. This is the foreign version of India’s Diwali time when ad slots are exorbitantly priced. Using the Christmas holidays, every brand tries to be cheeky in the ads. An increase in ad inventory also aids them.

    Continuing with our weekly series to present most loved international ads of the week, we bring to you our second edition. This week saw Serena Williams, who recently delivered a baby girl, sharing a heartfelt message to her daughter. We also see Samsung’s make fun of people who waste time in watching the washing machine tumbling clothes while Smirnoff takes a stand for the LGBT community.

    If you are looking for some inspiration to power you through this week, the new video from Gatorade will likely do the trick for you. 23-time grand slam champion Serena Williams is seen narrating a message to her newborn baby girl in the commercial to play sports for the lessons they can teach and the impact they can have. She says in the ad, “Sports will teach you the strength of your allies. Whether your bond is by blood or by ball, whether she shares the colour of your skin or the colour of your jersey, you’ll find sisters in sweat.”

    Samsung created a three-minute long film about a washing machine. That’s right, it is a whole film about clothes tumbling round and round while you watch it. According to Samsung’s research, British adults on an average spend 88,904 minutes of their lives watching the washing machine go around. The whole point of the ad was to tell viewers that you shouldn’t be spending much time watching the washing machine and that there is a faster washing machine available with Samsung. Sounds boring? But it surely has connected with an unnoticed habit!

    Toyota has created its new holiday ad that features a real family of actors — grandparents, their daughter and her husband, and their children. The ad features a powerful, multigenerational story about a family and the tree they have loved for years. Conceptualised by Saatchi & Saatchi Los Angeles, the campaign was aired between The Voice and This is Us as the only ad in the break. It was purposely filmed in the This Is Us show by taking nostalgic cues from it with a tale of two generations.

    Vodka brand Smirnoff has launched its new campaign to help inspire Britain’s nightlife to become more open-minded about gender and is partnering with the LGBT Foundation to enforce real change. The commercial features people from the LGBT community and asks people to be more inclusive and accepting of gay people. The film ends with a message, “Labels are for bottles, not people”. Now that’s powerful!

  • Brands kick off holiday ads way before Christmas

    Brands kick off holiday ads way before Christmas

    MUMBAI: A famous quote in advertising correctly justifies the medium – ‘Creativity without strategy is called art, creative with strategy is called advertising’. 
    It does stand true as advertising is creatively conveying your message to the viewers. Ad folk are obsessed with creativity which brings out the best in agencies that end up becoming memorable. 
    With holiday season around the corner, brands world over are pulling up their socks (did we hear Santa?). Holidays also give the audience more time to watch the ads as people tend to sit back, relax and enjoy some “me-time” by watching television or browsing social media platforms. Holiday ads are also significant as people tend to shop and splurge on gifts for family and friends around Christmas and New Year. 
    In our constant endeavour to bring forth interesting content to our readers, Indiantelevision.com has commenced a new weekly series, wherein we would showcase prominent international campaigns of the week that went by. 
    To kickstart the holiday season, we list down some of the most creative campaigns around the world this week. We are sure that these ads will get you in holiday mood ahead of time.
    LEGO Australia Christmas ad:

    Lego Australia created a stop-motion animation about a Lego Santa finding his way home to save Christmas, thanks to a surprise help from a spirited stranger, Sensei Wu. The campaign is a delightful little story that perfectly illustrates the sort of elaborate world-building Lego toys foster and the imaginative play that can happen within the little universe. The campaign was created by CHE Proximity agency. 
    Apple Holiday ad:

    Mobile giant Apple launched its holiday campaign called “Sway”. The ad features a brief appearance by the new iPhone X, but mostly revolves around AirPods and sharing an experience with music with someone special. The protagonist runs into a guy, imagines sharing an AirPod with him and the two fall in love before returning to reality where they pass by each other in the street. 
    Heathrow bears Christmas ad: 

    In the latest campaign by London’s Heathrow airport, much loved teddy bears Mr and Mrs Blair make a comeback to celebrate Christmas. During the two-minute video for Britain’s biggest airport, the emotional story follows the married couple from 1967 to the present day over the decades, as they longingly wait for each other in arrivals. The ad has been produced by Heathrow airport and is sure to make you teary-eyed. 
    Otto retail Christmas ad: 

    The short film revolves around the tale of a trapped Bolivian traveller to inspire togetherness in Christmas. Produced by BIGFISH, the campaign aims to get us into the spirit of Christmas regardless of where we are.
    McDonald’s reindeer ad: 

    McDonald’s has come up with an ‘awee-worthy’ ad this holiday season that talks about the tradition of leaving a gift for reindeers on Christmas for their hard work. The campaign conceptualised by Leo Burnett is part of McDonald’s #ReindeerReady Christmas menu.
