Funny Advertisement - SAVE BIG! SAVE NOW! (Satire)

Share Collapse

This is my take on how we advertise here in the good ol' USA.

Since I do this sort of thing as my job, I'm trying to increase viewership and get some notice from people who might wish to hire me. So any additional youtube views and (hopefully positive) comments would also be of use, along with any sharing on social media.

Of course I'm also very interested in your critiques on the animation, imagery, script, etc. etc.

Very cool. I wish you the best of fortunes. This "parody" of how advertising in the US reminds me to look into SMS text subscription services...

Also, you've got a good voice. You know it. I hear it.

AnimatedCritic responds:

Wish the voice were mine - this was worth an investment, so I paid through voicegarden.com - everything else is me.

The one thing I missed in my script is exactly what you just said - instead of "550 e-mails" it should have been "messages to your inbox and every single one of your devices" or something.

Missed that golden opportunity!

Anyway, thanks so much for the encouragement!

Quite the take on media advertisement.

AnimatedCritic responds:

Thanks for the great rating! Very much appreciated!

massive chills down the spine *shudder*

For your style... ship this to any major broadcast company, and you probably got yourself a "nice" new job! :P

AnimatedCritic responds:

You know something, about a year ago I was candidating for a news broadcast company, and they quickly became cold and went with someone who had more "experience." Which to me sounded like a line (or at least an unwillingness to take a risk that I think would have paid off big for them), and then I said, "Screw the media; I'll make my own content!"

It was probably that very attitude that birthed this piece right here!

Thanks for the encouragement!

This was very good. However, I can't figure out why it's classified as a parody. I mean this was the real thing, right? Right?

AnimatedCritic responds:

It's as real as you want it to be. Hard to tell the difference sometimes, right?

I thought I was watching TV for a second there. You should do one about medicine, you know, the kind where 5% is saying what the drug might cure and 95% is side effects including death and the thing it is supposed to cure

AnimatedCritic responds:

I like your idea!

The next one I have in mind in this series, if it were to be a series, would be "insurance for your insurance," which is what the car companies are doing now and it pisses me off.

Not sure I'll have time for that, but would love to do it.
