pudge's Journal: Playing the Ad Game, Part 2

Some thought the first version was a little bit unfair, so hopefully the new version will be better.

It was my lunch half hour.

Hate to say it...

But the first one was more in keeping with the style of these types of ads.

You're definitely a quick study.

Well, it WAS a Kerry supporter punching a Bush supporter ... trying to spin this as bad for Bush is a reach. :-) But by making it look like it was some random person, not a Kerry supporter, who did the deed, I think it was still decent.

Tweaking Pudge's knock-out ad #2

[LinuxParanoid]

I'm a tad confused. Was the second ad supposed to be pro-Kerry/anti-Bush? I actually viewed the second ad first and I wasn't sure really who it was for/against... towards the end it seemed to be against Bush but it wasn't obvious. The first ad had a cleaner message and made a lot more sense-- nice and punchy.

If the concept was to spin the same/event footage as pro-Bush once and pro-Kerry a second time, I have a suggestion for perhaps a better pro-Kerry clip. For pro-Kerry, I'd play up the 'anti-Bush' ha

I confess I'm not sure how to work the baby in that spot though

"Remember that children are the future. She's counting on your support."
Or something like that.
