Critical Mass: Pitch Fuzz
The add is aiming to awaken the taste senses of the person to desire the cocktail. Beautifully shot with particularly distinctive sounds, the video can make one crave that sweet champagne cocktail. I like the instructive hand-crafted chalk lettering, that appears to be blended into the environment.
Nike: Human Printing Press
Nike are know to make cool ads. There is nothing cooler for a graphic designer than an ad that revolves around ‘manual’ printing process. The concept is quite strong on it’s own and thereference to a printer machine is quite well presented.

Club Orange Ron Burgundy TV Advert
Kind of stupid but short and on point. I guess that it is Anchorman 2 related it is supposed to be that way. Might work even without the sound as a digital poster.

Jack & Jones: Made From Cool
Brilliant campaign. The concept is very clear and execution is superb. And also having Chrisopher Walken make the clothes is a great visualization of the slogan.

Volvo Trucks: The Epic Split feat. Van Damme
Became quite viral and spawned a fair share of imitations and mockery, yet the ad is quite well executed and clear when it comes to pure advertising. What many don’t know is that it is just another execution of a running campaign that features various stunts of different professionals. Here’s another one, much reminding me of the stuff we see in films such as Fast and Furious: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1zXwOoeGzys

Coca-Cola: Grandpa
It seems that Coca-Cola are always able to come up with a great concept for an ad. This one in particular I found quite interesting as it shows the change that technological development has brought into the modern age, although our habits and pleasures stayed the same. Very well executed ad.

Coca-Cola Zero: Unlock The 007 in You
Another great one from Coca-Cola, setting a James Bond scenario into a real life situation where the characters are humming the theme song from the film, making the ad a short musical.
