archived-videos Lips 2 Lips & Diamonds - Spec Concept Ads

[stevefranco]

Hello,

I figured I'd also post these spec concepts we shot for practice. Any and all feedback is appreciated.

Lips 2 Lips

Diamond Ad

Lips 2 Lips ad = 7
Diamond Ad = 8

Diamond Ad was very funny, and nicely lit!
You crossed the 180 framing line though which was a bit confusing...

Lips 2 Lips ad started well, had some nicely frame shots
but it seemed to drag in the middle.

All very radical!

Keep up the good work!!! =D>

Thanks for the comments. Yeah, that crossing of the 180 line was unfortunately unavoidable as it was covering up a few problems we had getting all the coverage we needed to make the ad look the way we wanted it to. Poor planning on our part.

Both ads were funny.

Just curious, the Lips [2] Lips ad, was that shown on television?

No, Lips 2 Lips is an online only thing. We just shot it for practice since Lips 2 Lips is a brand name we came up with.

Okay, I was wondering how it played on TV with such a suggestive sexual premise.

You're right the sexual premise would keep it off the airwaves here in the states, you never know though these days. Tt would probably be tame by european commercial standards.
