keeping note

For the past couple of Pixar movies I’ve been obsessed with some of the artwork. For The Incredibles, I loved the comic book style promo posters, for Ratatouille there were posters that resembled French Café and now for Wall-e, there are posters that reflect the old 1970’s ride posters Disneyland produced.

After some thorough research, I found out the artist is Eric Tan. According to his blog, he’s a graphic designer/doodler who grew up in San Diego. (And that’s about it) All I really know is I love what’s he’s done and his artwork now graces my computer screen.

P.S. He’s also done some other work and I thought you should check it out. Also, if you want an actual poster, you can go to Acme Archives to purchase one. The problem is they are a bit pricey.

Meat Loaf and Tiffany have joined forces to sell AT&T’s Gophone. The commercial makes me think of the John Waters’ film, “Cry Baby”. I love the camp of it all.

This commercial is so good I never skip past it, even when I’ve DVRed my show. Seriously…sometimes I walk around like some weirdo going…”Let me sleep on it!” hha. My roommates use to think I was nuts, but now that they’ve seen the commercial they burst out of song and fill in the missing parts.

Here’s the extended commercial below:

The ad campaign was created by BBDO New York and Atlanta

AND Meat Loaf commercialized his song “Paradise By The Dashboard Light”.

Below is a screen shot of the credits, yeah, the kid isn’t really Meat Loaf’s son, there were a lot of internet rumors floating around that he was.

For people who are into the Advertising facts (like me) CLICK HERE. It explains the train of thought for the ad. It’s nice to learn about how people pitch their ideas to begin a campaign.

I am no longer Lactos Intolerant.

The new milk ads are right up my ally. I’m the first to admit…I fall in love with things that are really really good or really really bad.

This ad for milk is stupid clever awfully good. (Yeah, that’s a compliment.)

The gotmilk ad features White Gold and the Calcium Twins. His guitar is filled with “delicious dairy” and he’s ready to “rock the world’s face.”

I think I’ve watched this cheesetastic video 20 times.

After seeing this video it made me head over to gotmilk.com and I saw another clever ad with a wicked witch who, after drinking a glass of milk, is less…witchy. Apparently a glass of milk can help with PMS…man if I knew that sooner…I totally would have hooked up a couple of lady’s I know with a glass or two…who am I kidding…the whole gallon.

The “PMS” milk commercial I’m posting is actually in Spanish with subtitles on the website with the tag “toma Leche”, but the youtube one I found is in English right below.

I’m still browsing the site as I’m typing this. They have all these recipes I want to try…well that I want Cypress to try to make…I just want to eat them hha.
