It’s always mobile game or sports betting ads that are the most “wtf?” levels of complex, which tells you something…
I am convinced the makers of those ads are on something strong and very illegal

Mobile gaming ads on YouTube are like softcore animations of a compilation of really specific niche fetishes.

Who’s out here defending an ad?

These ads always seem to me like someone was way too ambitious and made a feature length script with a full story and world building. That got cut up in just a few scenes that are filmed. The bosses said it’s still to long so those scenes got cut up in just a few fragments of a second each. In the end you get this fever dream kind of thing and nobody knows what’s happening.

seeing as it’s ridiculously hard to begin a career in filmmaking, a lot of filmmakers wanting to get into the field have to start in places where there’s always work to do - and that often haplens to be in ad companies

I like that one, it makes sense for a toilet paper company and is funny. The Church’s Chicken ad is unbelievably bad. I can’t find it though. It has a white rapper with the most rhythmically challenged customers appreciating his horrible rap.

Bruh harry mack drops bars though. But yeah church needs to work on their flavor or import the chicken from PR

Still boring lol. They’re on the equivalent of AI slop.

completely disagree with this. From a visual standpoint, I actually find perfume commercials really interesting to study for my own work (camera/editing). They do some really wild shit because they are basically no rules and being artsy/weird is part of the visual culture of perfumes now

I miss funny ads. Everything is so sanitized and boring, bring the humour back! If you want my attention or business get creative! make me remember!

Even the best ads are slop, just because it’s ads. But it’s totally legit to probe them for technique, and to also take the job and make into a work of art (which is ultimately slop because it’s ads)
