TOP 10 COMMERCIALS OF 2013

Commercial Reviews of 2013

1.Volvo Trucks: The Epic Split

Ad Agency: Forsman & Bodenfors

Seriously awesome video of our childhood hero JCVD doing the thing he is best know for his splits between 2 trucks.  Nice!

2. Totes McGotes

Ad Agency: Team Sprint- Leo Burnett 

I am so fascinated by these commercials from sprint. I am not sure what it means regarding their network but I do love watching them.

3. Budweiser – Brotherhood:

Ad Agency: Anomaly

This video gets to me every-time. How could we not put this in out countdown!

4. GoldieBlox: “Girls”

Ad Agency: the Academy

Three little girls that break the "mold" and create something bigger then what is believed of them. I am not sure why the fact they are girls makes it that much poignant, but it is what it is.

5. Twistos:Frog 

Ad Agency: BBDO Argentina

This rendition of The Princess and The Frog, giving this princess power to decide when she wants the prince and when to punish him and have him a frog.

6. Hump day Commercial Geico

Ad Agency: The Martin Agency

This fascination with hump day in the corporate world has always intrigued me, and this commercial makes light of this culture.

7. Dove: “Real Beauty”

Ad Agency: Ogilvy & Mather Brazil

This video does a great job with a message about personal perception. An FBI trained sketch artist draws women by having them describe themselves and followed by a stranger describing that same women. Check it out

8. Google: Reunion

Ad Agency: Ogilvy & Mather Mumbai

The Google commercial pulls the emotional strings. It is set in india and is definitely a brilliant way to show that no matter where you are from you can miss someone.

9. Dumb Ways to Die

Ad Agency: McCann

Title says it all, this is just a smart message on what not to do. The commercial is from Australia and made for the Metro with a message to be safe around trains, I guess they went ahead and added a couple more things to be careful with.

10. Berlitz 'improve your English\

Ad Agency: BTS United Osio 

This is simple a commercial which does a great job getting the message across.
