Nike: BOOM

Nike has just released a series of new commercials, Nike: BOOM. These ads have a wide variety of celebrities and athletes filling them. Everyone from Rick Ross to Bo Jackson find spots in these ads, also included, Tim Tebow, Robinson Cano, and Ndamukong Suh.These are pretty sweet commercials, fast action, quick cuts, and semi-entertaining. Look for more of these to be released in the near future. Also, there is a full-length, minute-or-so long video, that sort of encompasses all these together. Look for me to post that soon.

Grandville couple surprised by Oprah Winfrey

This is my parents yesterday on the local news being interviewed for winning their trip to Australia.

GRANDVILLE, Mich. (WZZM) - 25 years ago Larry and Terri Edema had a storybook wedding, book being the keyword, because the wedding video got deleted.

Terri deleted the video when she taped over it with an episode of the Oprah show. Her husband never let her live it down.

Recently, the curse was lifted when they got tickets to an Oprah taping. It ends up the episode was actually the first show of the final episode where the each member of the audience won a trip to Australia.
The couple was hand picked with the entire audience because of their story. Now Terri's husband Larry is officially a fan of Winfrey's.

Old Spice Guy Wins An Emmy

 These are probably some of my favorite commercials of all-time. Glad to see this guy finally gets some recognition for all the hard work he has put in. "Swandive!"

"Ad agency Wieden + Kennedy’s “The Man Your Man Could Smell Like” TV spot for Old Spice has won the Emmy for Outstanding Commercial.

The spot starred former NFL wide receiver Isaiah Mustafa as the Old Spice Guy, a character now well-known in pop culture thanks to the TV ads and a highly successful social media campaign.

The Old Spice Guy solicited questions from fans on Twitter, Yahoo Answers and other websites, then answered them in short, humorous YouTube videos. Total upload views for the Old Spice YouTube videos (including both the TV and the social media campaigns) currently stand at almost 135 million. “The Man Your Man Could Smell Like” has more than 18 million.

Mustafa joked in one of the final videos that he was a struggling actor, but the ads seem to have stripped away the “struggling” bit. He’s been signed to two movie roles, and will also appear in the NBC TV series Chuck.

Though Mustafa’s performance was a hit, the Emmy actually went to the creative minds behind the ad campaign, Wieden + Kennedy’s Portland office. The team won an Emmy last year for the Coca-Cola Super Bowl spot “Heist"."
