I have been fortunate in my career to have had the opportunity to work wthin many different markets across three continents. The variations in cultures, advertising regulations, consumer attitudes and overall sense of humor are vast. Incredible examples exist of highly creative advertising and marketing solutions that are considered main stream in some cultures while being unthinkable in others.
Over the years I have built up a siginificant library of some of the best and most innovative TV commercials and advertsing from around the world. I decided that rather than just selfishly keep them on my personal files for my own amusement and inspiration, that I would start sharing some of the best of them with you on an ongoing basis.
I am certain that on occasion certain examples may offend the odd person. For this I apologize in advance. My intention is not to offend, but rather to showcase innovative creative examples that are reflective of the markets and cultures they emanate from. My intention is to update this section with a new example every week, so remember to check back.
I hope you enjoy looking at them.
