New 15 second Bush flash ad - first of a series, tell me what you think?
Edited on Wed Sep-03-03 03:39 PM by symbolman
I got an email from a fan in Chicago that mentioned an article written by an ad man on how he would approach the whole Bush Iraq scene, and it was great so I used the approach.

Now I want to see what you think - it's not big, if you want to see it more than once you can hit the reload or refresh button on your browser. It's designed as the first of a series of 15 second ads that could be run from now until the elections.

Imagine others showing other dates and the dead, a different photo (but never any people - better for TV) each time they are shown. They don't promote any political party so they get past the Fed statutes, and I think they'll have an impact that will be good for all of us...

Tell your friends as well, pass the word - should I make one that can be included in emails?

Here it is: http://www.takebackthemedia.com/bringemon.html

On edit, repaired the link

7. Good. I like it.
Connect the stupid statement by * to the results. Hope you don't ever have to connect the axis of evil speech to the results though.

19. We're in the process of finding that out
As in promoting the ARMY OF ONE http://www.takebackthemedia.com/onearmy.html

But I thought this might be cheaper to start off with..

11. As usual

You nailed it.

I'm sure you're already planning to do this, but the video of W when he gets the whisper and goes back to reading his children's book, and then WTC blowing up is perfect for this format.

12. whatever you did it works now....and it's great...
...but as far as i'm concerned, you could use more explicit footage of the damage done to human bodies with these goddamn truck bombs.
still, i am again in awe....it seems the possibilities are endless with this stuff...

16. VERY nice, symbolman. A suggestion...
Could you make one that has him saying "I say, bring 'em on" and then the "20 dead" AND THEN, repeat "I say, bring 'em on" and the next statistic has "34 dead" and then repeat "I say, bring 'em on" and the next statistic has "67 dead" and on and on, until the death toll climbs to the near-300 mark it's reached by now? Maybe then to update it every week to reflect the increased numbers of casualties?

We shouldn't just put this message out there, we should RELENTLESSLY RUB IT IN THEIR FACES!!!

Would they do any less to us?

Time to fight mean and dirty!

17. Yep
That's why I'm calling it a series.. we can update it and keep it rolling as our poor troops keep getting hammered thanks to his lies and deceit.

thanks!
