When I was a child, I was very picky about every single item that goes into my bedroom, whether an actual piece of furniture or a cassette tape. Mostly, I’d color, cut, and glue to make items suit my preferences, and I actively dreamt about the day where I’d have access to all the world’s beautiful design pieces.

Then comes adulthood, and the discovery that shit, nice things are REALLY expensive in this part of the world. And I don’t have the time to color, cut, and glue.

What I end up with is jpegs of awesome pieces of furniture… Like these:

In October ‘09 I posted how Dodge’s agency made Challenger a bonecar n’ forgot about its muscle business. After lots o’ jokes and many Challengers seen on roads there comes Man On Wheels campaign to finally do the car some fair Justice.

What I love about the Man On Wheels microsite is not the execution. I love the copy. It’s exactly how a Muscle car owner thinks about the car n’ I love that attitude being shown.

It’s all talks though!

But then, it’s all about this cowboy who’s admiring the car n’ jus’ talkin’ about it. Again, nothing’s being shown. The car is shown in its whole form, no details are shown. It doesn’t show the Tail, the cowboy jus’ talks about it, the 6.1 Hemi, no burnout is shown, no Engine sound to get you going and most importantly no V8 growl. Nonetheless I loved the campaign, jus’ because it’s the first time ever some works have gone on an online campaign apart from an online test-drive form in Duabi. What is obvious is that the “copy” has won over the rest of the elements of the campaign and the dominant one way duke-style dialogue kills the multimedia purpose of the website. If there was only a little bit of Outdoor n’ off-studio shooting to compliment the campaign, only if there was…
