Quite a Few Retro Adverts from Japan

Don't Miss A Great Opportunity - Make It Happen With Chevrolet
Don't miss a great opportunity - the strapline of Chevrolet's latest commercial for TV and online.
The advert's narrative begins with a man being shown around a "Raiders of the Lost Ark" style aircraft hanger filled with wooden boxes, by another man in a white coat. The mysterious official reveals the warehouse is filled with boxes containing every opportunity someone has missed, carefully stored away in a kind of never ending stasis.
A plethora of gold, silver and bronze trophies, that yacht you've always wanted but never bought, learning the piano, walking on the Moon?! (Must have been an opportunity missed by someone!) and many more.
MAKE IT HAPPEN WITH CHEVROLET
Chevrolet encourage you not to miss an opportunity and introduce their range of cars at the end of the commercial, revealing the sentiment of the advert in a kind of edgy tone.
To continue this intriguing storyline, Chevrolet developed a series of additional videos that deliver background stories to some of the missed opportunities featured in the Warehouse video. Chevrolet have done this via its partnership with MOFILM - an online collective of young film makers. Click here to view the entries that continue the story...
Here's the winning entry created by Ben Tedesco entitled - Through the Lens.

Screamin' Jay Hawkins - I Put A Spell On You - Linoprint
This is a linoprint of the great Screamin' Jay Hawkins I've been working on recently. An amazing performer, and one of the first shock rockers, Screamin' Jay Hawkins was a legend! The song and haunting performance of 'I Put A Spell On You' was what inspired me to create a print of Hawkins (see video at the bottom).

New Müller ad 2011 - wünderful stuff
I love the new Müller advert, a wonderful blend of modern nostalgia whipped up using hand drawn animation, computer generated wizardry and real life action!
The advert was created by TBWA\London and shows the Müller robot, developed especially for this advert, wreaking havoc and turning ordinary law abiding citizens into a collection of nostalgic pop culture characters, including none other than Yogi Bear, a selection of Mr Men, Muttley, KITT (The Hoff's ride) and many more!
The campaign launched with the first round of this year’s The X Factor live finals. The epic, 90-second commercial aired simultaneously across 50 channels, including the coveted slot during Britain’s biggest entertainment show.
Truly wünderful
"I think it's great that a brand should remind us to stir a bit of wonder in our days, and beat the mundane out of our lives. Such a mission needs to reach as many people as we can -- and talk to their heart. It's a rallying cry. It has to be truly wünderful." - Dedé Laurentino, Executive Creative Director at TBWA\London.
Also see the 'making of' the wünderful stuff advert, and below that, an amazing time lapse video of an outdoor graffiti artwork for the campaign.
