  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

Kids say the darndest things

Sidderke,

"Spec" is generally a spot made without permission or endorsement from the client or ad agency. Usually done for the reel of a production company, or young director.

"Viral" has come to mean a spot that plays outside of the normal TV/Cinema channels. The term comes from videos that get passed around on the internet because they are entertaining, not because they are forced on people.

Thank you.

Very nice: Only thing that bothers me a bit is how burnt the window in the "cake" viral is. Didn't you have ND gels for the windows?
Would you say in your experience that the dynamic range was good?

We did the final post on these spots. The production company did the conversions from R3D to 2k Log DPX and supplied to us with the DPX's, so unfortunately I have no idea how much extra latitude we could have pulled from the raw as a separate pass.

I believe the commercials are to air on NZ's Playboy + other R18+ SKY channels.

Definitely the funniest TVCs I've worked on this year :biggrin:

Heh Heh, not until some mother sees them and raises a ruckus
and throws up a protest at a WalMart...
I guess these are for Australia?
 
All the kids talk like that in Australia so the ads wouldn't be shocking enough.

These are for the New Zealand market.

Where did you get Australia from?
 
Awesome. I loved the grading and look. It had that perfect 70s 16mm BBC feel to it.

Only thing that I didn't quite like was after the girl in one of the spots handed him his present she quickly ran off and sat down so when the camera cuts back to the wideshot instead of her waiting sort of anxiously for acknowledgement she has just vanished into thin air.
 
Sponge fu**** cake?... Fu*****!!!! Hillarious.
 
Just saw the sponge spot air on G4 "Attack of the Show"...I noticed it immediately, 1st time I see RED material being broadcasted even though it was youtube quality via a standard def channel but I suppose this is the nature of viral marketing. Either way congrats. :)
