My Top 3 Super Bowl Ads

  1. Chrysler: Detroit

    Really this is an ad for detroit. The VO starts off a little aggressive / defensive for my taste, but it gets better from there. I think the images speak for themselves pretty well: this is a place that used to be able to make great art, great architecture, great stuff, and there’s no reason it can’t do so again. So I guess really it’s about the US in general, huh.

  2. NFL: sitcoms

    3. There is a lot of heartbreaking VFX work in this spot, including roto, tracking, matchmoving… Making it look like someone is wearing a hat is a difficult, subtle process that looks faaaaaake with the smallest mistakes.

  3. VW: 2011 Beetle

    This one’s just fun. It was a tossup between this and the helpful beaver ad, but the stupid “I got you brah” hand gesture at the end of the beaver commercial throws the win to VW.
