@floatingkid what are you saying with "this whole video was trying to sell-"?
Didn't you see the last sentence of the video?
Also you had better have a basic knowledges such as "Asian history didn't have a sense to "destroy" the nature before the Westerner came to disturb the lives with destroying at first" etc..
I was completely amazed until I realized it was a commercial. It ruined it for me. I hate everything that has to do with the cynical world of publicity, capable of using kids and the wonders of mature to sell us anything, incuding a goddamned phone.
Really? In modern culture, advertising is a fact of our lives. They were selling a phone called the "Touch Wood." Instead of using sex to advertize their product like countless other companies, they made a unique, awesome commercial that showed so much ingenuity and creativity. So what if it sells something?
@elerico yes, I know, they were brilliant. I recognize the talent. This is not my point. I am tired of being sold things. If you're an artist, express yourself with art, not publicity. Picasso didn't work in an Ad agency trying to figure out how his work could be used to sell a product with the maximum efficiency. He simply expressed himself through paintings and left us with a magnificent heritage, and even if no one had ever bought one of his paintings, he would still have done them.
@mellkiades but.. Picasso and Dali and a lot of other, they were drawing for ads... by the way i think, ads is one of the most interesting art in the world. I really love art and "being sold things" too.
@pruntoff where did you get that Picasso and Dali were "drawing" for ads? Please show me a source, I'm interested. André Breton made an anagram with Dali's name, "Avida Dollars", which means "thirsty for dollars", so I wouldn't have a hard time believing your statement, but I'm not sure about Picasso. I think or want to believe that their quest was of a higher degree than simple dollars.
@mellkiades just two links but there were a lot of works, as I can remember (use google Luke! :) ):
I can not give links in any case, but google "picasso advertisment" it is on the first page.
I rly can not understand why ads is a "lower degree" for art. IMHO ads art - is really cool, and money is not evil^ so why not? Why money art can not be really art?
You can call me a Jap if you want, as long as you buy a docomo from my shop and then walk around blow ppls minds away with how much better your phone is than anyone elses ^_^
@ShockerRed Sorry ! It was not my intention to offend you and the Japanese People. We use this word in France, like a cut in a slangy language, without ( I insist ) any scornful idéa . Many people here , using this word, are very admiring for inventions or créations from Japan . One more time : Please, forgive me if I hurt you. Also TROP FORT means TOO STRONG.
El tema musical corresponde a la composición de Juan Sebastian Bach conocida en español como "Jesús, alegría de los hombres": (Chorale "Jesus, bleibet meine Freude" from the Cantata "Herz und Mund und Tat and Leben" - mov. X, BWV 147).
Bravo to the cellphone company for making this extraordinary project a reality by commissioning it for their commercial (and giving it full rein with the ad portion taking a backseat)
@ftlfilms213 watch?v=VD44QhKuG1U Here's the making of. Do at least the tiniest bit of research instead of making assumptions then commenting upon those assumptions.
2:55~ says "Thinning out some trees is necessary to keep artificial forest. But we are confronted with the problem how to manage to raise the funds now. We wish to suggest the new purpose of sustainably harvested woods and contribute to the conservation of forests. And TOUCH WOOD SH-08C was born."
It is actually J.S. Bach, it is his Choral "Jesus bleibet meine Freude" from his cantata "Herz und Mund und Tat und Leben", also known in English-speaking circles as Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring. The BWV is 147. It is one of his most recognised works. :)
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
380 doesn't like this cuz there is too much buffering XD or they think that the Japs are wasting time instead of helping the hungry children cuz of Tsunami.
@Owens867 Je regrette fort que les concepteurs n'aient pas d'abord regardé la partition de J.S. Bach, car ce ne sont pas les bonnes notes, même si l'effort est louable, coûteux et performant. La prochaine fois adressez-vous à un vrai musicien.
