My sister is p. good friends w. nat bc they are like the same age and she thinks the whole thing is really cool, idk i think they made like a lot of money from the hyundai thing

they prolly made a lot of money for 2 amateurs, but nothing compared to what hyundai would've paid an ad agency to come up with the same thing
reminds me of when the majors were overjoyed at the ascent of grunge cuz it cost comparatively nothing to record those recs
― Є|Э (Edward III), Thursday, 6 January 2011 00:42 (thirteen years ago) link
i can tell you that hyundai dropped about $50k to license a single crappy video from my company so who knows how much they paid these guys to do the work they did.

I think hyundai has their own inhouse ad agency but lower cost of production might explain why they had the scratch to run this thing 8 gazillion times

there's something kinda magical about how plax uses abbreviations about "p." and "idk" and "V"

This thread is already up there with the Joanna Newsom one, and with luck/further revelations/random Googling by fans could possibly push on into DMBand territory.

Were Gap the pioneers of insufferable indie Christmas ads or is there a long heritage I'm unaware of?

It's sort of fitting that VW, the band of "You know what, fuck you we actually are preps lol" is pared with the traditional brand of just "Fuck you, we're preps period."

isn't ralph lauren/polo way more trad prep than tommy hill?

Yeah, I guess Tommy is "Yo dude I'm a prep," Polo is "I'm a prep" and Brooks Brothers is "What's a 'prep' these are just normal clothes what are you talking about?"

was a little mad when they co-opted this perverted japanese mannequin series to hawk their shitty clothes, i guess cause i felt that lifeless pieces of plastic had more integrity than hootie.
