(TrendHunter.com) Garbage as design is a modern art form that seems to be on the rise, as the push to become environmentally innovative grows stronger. A different approach to this green art form is this recent guerrilla campaign featuring animals made of recycled garbage bags. Art student Joshua Alan Harris literall…
You might remember the Cadbury Gorilla spot we wrote about a while back. The question was posed:
Is it a worthwhile piece of content simply because it makes people watch? Or is it missing the boat because it has no connection to the brand?
Well, something as unique (and bizarre) as a gorilla drumming to Phil Collins is hard to top, but Cabral and Fallon have certainly done their best.
Both the drumming gorilla and this new spot share a bizarre semi-disconnect from the brand, and a similar feeling of enjoyment and satisfaction. And as touchy as I am at the use of Queen, this spot does it beautifully, just as the Gorilla did justice to “In The Air Tonight.” And then there’s the whole whole Cadburyesque purple sky, which is creatively beautiful.
Does it work? Can the “campaign” be continued successfully (and if so, does this accomplish it?) or was the drumming gorilla enough?
LOS ANGELES (AdAge.com) — The entertainment industry has just gotten a peek at Tom Cruise, version 3.0, and it appears to like what it sees.
(TrendHunter.com) This homoerotic recreation of Leonardo’s Last Supper has offended a Viennese cardinal, making it second piece of modern art on Trend Hunter we’ve known to offend the church.

We’d be a fan of Justice Mitchell even if he didn’t ply his trade at our friend and co-conspirator David Griner’s agency, Luckie & Company. And ply he does, with interactive marketing chops that bring to mind the old Tenacious D quote: “If you want your asses blown out, stay in the room.†Luckie has built a whole campaign, Demand Justice Now, around its hiring of Mitchell. It includes a savvier-than-thou Twitter feed and several spoof legal ads. As Justice would say (and, in fact, did say), “It’s not bragging if you can throw out enough metrics to imply you did it.†Stick that in your Facebook and smoke it.

About six months ago we launched an office blog called Scratch, where people share favorite websites, creative briefs, the video of the moment, and whatever they happen to be thinking about. Some of my favorite posts describe what people are reading, so I asked them to send me a list of books that have influenced their thinking about advertising and business.
For all you adgrunts out there who want to watch season one again, the DVD set will be released July 1. It comes packaged in a metal box shaped like a lighter.
As far as photocopying is concerned, you cannot help but think if photocopying machines have a mind of their own in the real world. But if you want to promote the quality and reliability of your product, this Double A paper commercial is one for the books!
Using the famed boom of the movie “The Transformers†as part of its storyline, you just got to hand it to the makers of this video commercial for conceptualization. You just have to know how to maximize advertising opportunities while minimizing costs for talent fees known to be outrageous these days.
One thing that you can count on when it comes to producing the whole script of commercials is the creativity part of each segment. Most companies like the makers of Budweiser know what the public want.
While some may criticize them for placing some sort of some malice, as long as there is nothing offensive about them, you got to take your hats off to the makers of these commercials.
So the next time you feel the heat, grab a bud. But once you do, make sure you cool it first before proceeding. Some things may not be what as they seem in the world of creative advertising.

(TrendHunter.com) I’m usually kind of cynical when it comes to celebrities and the circus atmosphere surrounding them. Some will say that I’m usually kind of cynical. Period. But I digress.
