Considering the number of images and messages that we are bombarded with on the daily, it is hard to pick just one that rises above the rest. So naturally, I’ve selected a couple.<\/p>\n
One of my favorite’s is probably\u00a0Always’s\u00a0<\/em>\u00a0“Like A Girl” campaign. They would show short clips on TV, but post 5 minute or more videos of YouTube that outlined the whole campaign. They would ask older teenagers what it meant to do something “like a girl,” and they acted out the traditional insulting image of what that looked like. Then they would ask the name of younger girls who showed a different meaning of what “like a girl” meant to them. I liked it before it forced people to confront the sexist language and euphemisms that we use everyday.\u00a0 LINK:\u00a0https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=XjJQBjWYDTs<\/p>\n Another one I love is GEICO because of their wide variety of ads with the same punchline –GEICO making its customers happier than\u00a0the witch in the broom factory or a camel on humpday or Paul Revere with a cellphone. They’re always funny and are super re-quotable which helps make them more famous (especially the “humpday” one). They are also all very brief at about only 30 seconds which means they are very effective at communicating their message in compelling way in a very short amount of time.
