Awesome Spot: Toyota Hilux - Tougher Than You Can Imagine
I've had this one bookmarked for months. I couldn't delete it so I decided to post it. Even if you don't like the ad itself, don't you wish Toyota sold the Hilux in the States? Seriously, why do the best cars end up overseas?
Awesome Spot: Nike - KD Paint the Town
I don't know if it's the fact that KD really does interact with the people or the Sam Cooke track, but this spot makes me feel good. Not a big fan of the KD IV shoe though.

Awesome Sofa: the Cay Sofa by Alexander Rehn
I don't even know if these are for sale. There's little info on Rehn's site. But every 'cool' company should have one of these.
Awesome Truth: universality
"Laughter sounds the same in every language." Amazing. I'm surprised this project hasn't gotten more buzz. It's probably because it's positive.

Awesome Ad: Greenpeace - 40 Years
Still digging through the bookmark crates. I love the simplicity of this video. Just sad that the title ruins the punchline. Still worth watching though.
Awesome Promo: Barefoot Wine & Bubbly - One Beach
This is another post that we let sit in our bookmarks folder for far too long. It definitely deserves a callout for being awesome. Barefoot Wine & Bubbly launched "One Beach," a film series highlighting the creative innovators who support clean and sustainable beaches by creating a movie poster mural in Venice Beach made of 17,500 pieces of trash found on Southern California beaches.

Awesome Campaign: Benetton - unhate
Bennetton has always been known for their controversial advertisements—some more brilliant than others. I think these skew further toward the brilliant end.

Awesome Trailer: Brave
I've never seen a Disney/Pixar movie I didn't like so this one should be amazing as usual

Awesome Video: Kina Grannis - in your arms
This video took:
22 months
1,357 hours
30 people
2 ladders
1 still camera
288,000 jelly beans
Yes, the video is awesome. But after reading that it took 2 years to make and watching the behind the scenes video below, what this project really looks like is the most elaborate attempt for a director to get with a cute artist. She is cute. But still, two years?!
Awesome Video: Jack Daniel's Does Letterpress
Aparaently it's Letterpress Wednesday. Here's another great video about the best way to print stuff. This time from Jack Daniel's
