Default Ford TV Commercial Website

Hi guys and girls,
I am going to set up a website for Ford TV commercials.
If anyone has any ad's captured to their pc or have them on tape, and are cool to share them with me for the site, would love to hear from you.
I have a mate who will host it for me with a unlimited bandwidth and massive webspace, and its on a very quick server.
email me lredward@tpg.com.au and let me know what you have.

Regards

Luke

Rather then just waste your bandwidth sending you vids you already have - perhaps you'd be good enough to post up a link to the tv commercial site, so we can send you vids you don't already have(as well as allowing others to enjoy the collection too)

Speaking of commericals, I was editing the ads out of Pukekohe race 3 and I noticed that the Greg Murphy Rodeo ad was in there, so once its done encoding I'll post up the ad, its really funny.

/me wonders if you are thinking of the EA ad done by ford, or the DUNLOP ad featuring the EA landing on an aircraft carrier....
If you're going to make it a ford TV commercial site, how bout broadening your horizons a little to include ads that predominantly feature fords (like the dunlop ad etc) Could possibly also include music video clips that feature fords (like the addicted to bass clip)

There is a New Zealand band video clip that has a GTHO and a Monaro dragging down Meremere, and they always show it pulling out in front but it never gets any further ahead so it must keep falling back or something, anyway they arent a very big band so the chances of getting it capped are quite low, I can't remember what they were called either, Skinny_Puppy knows, hopefully he will read this thread.

It's a band called Tadpole, I love the clip, the music's alright :hihi:
I've seen it more than a few times, once I get around to getting a capture card, I'll record it, but I'll try tape it.

well, just watched the 2 new ads for the GT and typhoon....

i didnt think it was possible, but FPV marketing have outdone themselves this time....

those were the 2 shittest ads for a performance car that I have ever watched.

seriously? they dont even show the whole car! people dont anything but the front of the car...extremely disapointing ads.


then i watched the 3 short videos they've added...the first 1 is called "performance inc." and they make a point of stating that they put performance into everything they do....how bout showcasing the performance of the cars you're trying to sell?! you dont have to show law breaking driving to do that....anything! let people hear the V8 roar of the GT....put them on a track!? anything but a car heading towards the camera at a speed that looks like a small child is pushing it!

the boss 290 engine video and typhoon video is what the ads should be based on....thats where you actually see what car you may be buying. you hear the engines. you see the interior...and thats performance! the new GTP interior looks insanely good!
