Jared Evan – In Love With You

Jared Evan – In Love With You

Heard this track on the ending credits of HBO’s Entourage episode “Sniff Sniff Gang Bang” from Season 7, episode 8, and the track is infectious. A sort of Pop/Rock/R&B fusion that hits hard. One thing about Entourage: Its not the greatest show, but the music selections are on point. The artist is Jared Evan, the track is ‘In Love with you’.

Bad Ads: KFC, chickens eating chickens

Published by d dot b under Cre8ive Abstract, Media

Chicken Cannibalism

An example of when an advertising concept is not thoroughly thought through – I get bringing the classic Looney Toons carton characters, but how do you have the Chicken in the cartoon discussing about eating other chickens?  Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) has been known to create bad TV ads, and this is just another one to that long list.

Lupe Fiasco in new HP TV ads

HP does it again as they fulfill their spot as the second coolest brand of computers behind Apple; though I think that HP edges out Apple in the commercials.

Marge Simpson Playboy Cover

Beyond 2D Imagination

Playboy’s smartest move

Marge Simpson will be on the cover for the November 2009 issue for the iconic magazine Playboy. One way to generate interest into a dying medium & publication is to blur the lines of reality – so kudos to Playboy for accomplishing buzz and pushing the imagination of many to actually contemplate what is under that green dress (insert joke here). This issue can spawn Playboy’s competitors to think of other crazy issues, such as Cartman’s mother from South Park in Hustler, or even Lois from the Family Guy — the sky is the limit.

Here are also some other interesting derivations of the iconic cartoon mother

Women in Mainstream Film

Women’s studies mash up from Brett Dan n Jacob on Vimeo.

I thought these guys did a pretty good job in identifying gender stereotypes in popular films. Kudos, but they didn’t really offer a solution, but c’est la vie.  A good watch rather than watching some gangsta try to shoot up Youtube.
