of your difficult
June 2, 2008Selling cars is quite the task these days and making a car worthy of today’s dollar is a difficult task, indeed. The new line of advertising for the Honda Accord aims to point out that “difficult is worth doing” by showcasing some heart-stopping aerial acrobatics. If Honda made planes, would people jump out of them?
of your frames
May 17, 2008When your message is difficult to get across with traditional storytelling, animation is usually the best medium for the job. The fine folks at Three Legged Legs really know how to illustrate a point. Whether for commercial interests or their own, these guys really know their stuff.

May 12, 2008Stock photography sites are a crucial tool to just about any art director/designer. Veer continually pushes the envelope on what we should consider “stock” art.

of your network
May 2, 2008Coudal Partners have really great ideas. They also know how to sell those ideas. Do you have a product and/or service suited for the advertising, design and creative culture of today? Perhaps, then, you should consider advertising through The Deck. There are some premier sites that are part of The Deck; 37Signals, Daring Fireball, IconBuffet and Ze Frank to name a few.
of your word
April 24, 2008We use them every day and will even search for them on the internet. What if your favorite word was attached to your URL? Surely that’s good advertising. The Big Word Project, created by Paddy Donnelly and Lee Munroe, will sell a word at $1/letter to be permanently attached to your web site. Wanna buy a vowel?
of your question
February 12, 2008We all have just a tiny bit inside us that wants to see what happens to items when they meet an awkward demise. As part of an ad campaign gone mad scientist, “Will It Blend?” provides the answers we so desperately seek. No ice needed for these mixed drinks. [WARNING: they… they blend…(choke)… an iPhone. Not for the weak hearted.]
of your commercial
February 3, 2008Every year, on a particular Sunday, teams pit their skill and abilities against each other in one of the nation’s most demanding, televised events. Who will come out on top? Who will make the most memorable impact? You have but to watch and see. Oh, and there’s a football game that airs around all these promo spots too.

December 24, 2007If you’re around the Brooklyn area and need to stock up your utility belt, have your cape re-tailored or just need to know your way around Gotham better; then look no further than the Brooklyn Superhero Supply Co. Brought to you by 826 NYC. Nothing for you nemesis-types – shop elsewhere.
of your promo
December 20, 2007This is a tricky one – and a short lived jealousy at that. It’s a hell of a deal MacUpdate is offering: 13 software titles for only around 10% of the total cost. However; the price raises each second (around a penny every minute and a half). Ultimately, you have a little less than a day to cash in on this deal. Time is money.
