The succes of the commercial ”Happiness Factory” hasn’t been unnoticed. The sequel entitled Happiness Factory: The movie is finished! This advertisement movie shows you for 3,5 minutes the wonderful world inside the cola vending machine. With the very nicely done ‘documentary’ ”Inside The Factory” it’s all taking a step to the next level.

This advertisement is created by Aardman to promote the Countryside Code in the United Kingdom. The animals of Creature Comforts give some advise on how to behave on the countryside, the coast and the British ‘Moorlands’.

‘Endless Cookie’ is a very nice animation for Zune, the MP3-player of Microsoft. If you know that you can share a song endlessly with Zune and this way the network keeps growing, it all becomes a bit more clear. This commercial is made by Passion Pictures and the song is Magic Trick by M. Ward.

Making a good commercial is a work of art. Happiness Factory from Coca Cola is a perfect example of a beautiful and ingenious animation. It’s always a pleasure to watch. The Big Win from the British National Lottery belongs to the same category, especially the music brings that smile upon your face: enjoy! (and forget the cheesiness)

This beautiful commercial is made by Stardust Animation Studios to promote Finland’s high class coffee brand Paulig Presidentti.

Aardman Animations created for the Wildscreen Film Festival 2006 a lovely bug animation.

Wallace and Gromit, the best known clay creatures from Aardman, also like to make some extra money. In these three commercials you’ll see the inseparable duo drinking tea, eating crackers and trying out the new Kangoo car. Thanks to the no-boundaries policy of Ebay, I also have the pleasure of drinking my cup of tea from the Gromit tea mug and see his nose turn red.
