   Never realized that Johnnie Walker labels are placed at 24°. That video definitely held my attention.

   Those videos focus on something that holds u attention and place their product among that attention. It is sneaky but works very well. People will see these videos and then tell their friend about them and not even realize that they are helping to advertise.

   Wow, as mentioned above, the videos are so entertaining you don’t realize how much you are being exposed to a product.

   I loved the Johnny Walker video it was perfectly timed and intriguing. Also I wonder how many tires that guy on the bike goes through.

   Advertising is an extremely effective way to promote a business when done in a creative matter. It is amazing the advertisements that people come up with that not only informs and acknowledges things about the business, but that also entertains, such as the Superbowl commercials. Awesome advertisements.

   I love them. Some are really funny and they all make you remember them even after the video is over. I really enjoyed the twilight football one. It was like watching a friends funny game. I didn’t even realize it was exposing me to a business until it was over!

   Wow. The Inspired Bikes one was INSANE! I showed my roommates and they were pretty impressed too. I just wonder how many times the guy ate it before they got all of their footage done.

    There are several things that people measure when measuring the effectiveness of advertisements. One of which is the viewers attention. These definitely keep the viewers attention throughout the entire advertisment.

    Its amazing how a simple video that has no true extreme importance to today’s world could be the most watched video, such as the biking one. You would imagine something relevent to the world today such as a major news story would be on top!

    I think it depends on the person, but personally some of the ads were boring and didn’t hold my attention, others such as the bike or gian slip and slide were awesome even if I didn’t realize what was being advertised. They all seemed to have that awe valuse to eather make viewers get involved in the ad or were in amazement.

    I’m a sucker for a good advertisment! I feel like if they can put the time and money and effort into a good advertisment then I can give them the time to consider their product. If all advertisments held my attention like these do, then maybe the economy wouldnt be so messy!

    The videos were really fun to watch. Sometimes videos would motivate people to have a desire to purchase the product, which is a really good advertising media.

    These videos are amazing. There is no doubt in my mind that these videos help these brands catch more consumer attention than the normal ads. Its a great way to market products.
