If Eyes, Tongues, and a Brain Could Talk

Fun, yet somewhat creepy, commercial for Coke Zero.

Apparently it’s ok for eyes and tongues to have legs, but the poor grumpy brain has to pull itself around on a cart!

Ask your doctor for a reason to take Panexa

Panexa

Great spoof on pharmaceutical advertising for a drug called Panexa. Be sure to read the Important Safety Information before asking your doctor about Panexa.

Here’s an excerpt:

PANEXA is a prescription drug that should only be taken by patients experiencing one of the following disorders: metabolism, binocular vision, digestion (solid and liquid), circulation, menstruation, cognition, osculation, extremes of emotion. For patients with coronary heart condition (CHC) or two separate feet (2SF), the dosage of PANEXA should be doubled to ensure that twice the number of pills are being consumed. PANEXA can also be utilized to decrease the risk of death caused by not taking PANEXA, being beaten to death by oscelots, or death relating from complications arising from seeing too much of the color lavender. Epileptic patients should take care to ensure tight, careful grips on containers of PANEXA, in order to secure their contents in the event of a seizure, caused by PANEXA or otherwise.

Apumanque Bikes’ Anatomical Ads

Apumanque Bikes

Apumanque Bikes

“Tu y tu moto seran un solo. Apumanque regala la moto ideal para el estudiante.”

“You and your bike will become one
Apumanque gives away the ideal bike for students.”

Cool concept, although I think the illustrations look a bit stiff. I want to see the riders more engaged with the bike, like up off the seat or doing a trick . It’s one of those things where so much time was probably spent illustrating the anatomy, that the overall design and feel of the ad got snubbed. Anyone agree? Disagree?

How to fertilize an egg…with charm

So that’s how it’s done…

Surprisingly enough this is an ad for the Belgium bank, Centea. They’re trying to get the point across that their bank managers work extra hard for their clients…by charming their eggs with flowers…

Does anyone happen to know who did this fantastic animation?

Selling Cupcakes

“Inside all of us is a kid who wants a cupcake”

Thought this was cute.  Most of us can relate, although I can think of many more food items to add after cupcakes…
