Chris Guillebeau on his “Art of Non-Conformity” blog suggests promoting someone else when you’re facing inertia about your own work.
That’s easy to do in referring to Adweek’s blog, Adfreak, always a fantastic source for insights and samples of ads around the world, and a great playground for multiculturalists fascinated by the construction and representation of culture from multiple perspectives.
If you like the ad above (babies of a variety of cultural backgrounds roller blading to hip hop music), there are 29 more on Adfreak’s 30 Freakiest Commercials of 2009.
They’re from around the world, so have fun seeing how everything from your favorite products to public service issues (safe sex, perils of drunk driving) are interpreted through the lens of different cultures.
Any others you’d like to ad?
