Commercials with a social message

I love that corporations are starting to think up commercials with more of a social message. It’s about time. Examples include the Dove Campaign for Real Beauty, Pantene (thanks to Janet Reid for this one!) and RBC’s Blue Water Project. I’d like to see more of these in the future.

Here are some of the Dove commercials:

I’ve Been Wordled!

I just “wordled” the Random Musings blog. Fun! Go try it yourself!

From their site: Wordle is a toy for generating “word clouds” from text that you provide. The clouds give greater prominence to words that appear more frequently in the source text. You can tweak your clouds with different fonts, layouts, and color schemes. The images you create with Wordle are yours to use however you like. You can print them out, or save them to the Wordle gallery to share with your friends.

Single Ladies

Just found this video of Goth Single Ladies and had to post.

Here’s the original from Beyoncé. And one thing that I’ve wanted to point out about this video is that, like Alfred Hitchcock’s The Room, this was shot in a single take. Nice!!
