Inspiration

There is not much out there that really inspires me when it comes to creating anything, especially ads. In fact, what drives me more then anything else are things that I consider subpar and I will try to go above and beyond to outdo those "works". However, every so often an ad comes along that I consider to be extraordinary. The following are some examples of ads that have positively influenced me.

I know re-watching these made my afternoon. I can already feel a renewed sense of inspiration bubbling up now. At least I hope that's what that is...
