Aesthetic Bounce



If your goal is to develop a cult brand, like Apple or Nike, strongly rely on creative elements in commercials to capture the viewer's attention and never mention your product until briefly at the end. ...Oh yeah, deep corporate pockets never hurt either.

Sony's classic Bravia "Balls" advertisement creates a strong visual impact for viewers and impacts audiences of all ages. The subtle cascade of 250,000 rubber balls bouncing down San Francisco's streets conveys the subtleness of tranquility often lost in the city. The advertisement creates intrigue and the extended 2:30 Internet version allows the creativity to bounce all over the screen, much more then a consolidated 15 second television advertisement.

Don't be afraid, if you are not "qualified."

You'll never know when you're big break will happen.  The secret is to be ready at all times. Last weekend, Matt Williams, a Texas Tech sophomore, won a month of free rent by kicking a 30-yard field goal during a contest at his school's football game. Although Texas Tech is currently ranked #8 in the country, the team has missed six extra point attempts and half of its field goal attempts. Following the contest, Mike Leach, Texas Tech's football coach, approached Williams and asked him to be the team's extra point kicker. Tomorrow, Williams receives his big break and will kick extra points against #19 Kansas. If you have a talent, don't be afraid to share it.  You'll never know who is watching and where it will take you.
