bjornpdx Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 Inappropriate Ads While browsing I came across some TV and magazine advertisements from the past that would definitely not be okay today. I put a few of them in a short video and added a tune I wrote about 20 years ago for the soundtrack. Can't believe some of the drug ads! -Bjorn 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FreeEarCandy Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 Part of our human nature. We see a problem and we invent a cure. Clearly the adds are a problem. What's the cure? Thought provoking track and video. Very nice work! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treesha Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 Wow. Great job on the soundtrack. The future will look back on the ads of today with similar reaction. Unfortunately. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry T. Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 Great work. This video should be a required watch at all high schools. The music score you did fits like a glove🎶👍👍🎶 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freddy j Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 Asoflippinlutely excellent work!!!! What an excellent message!!! Do you mean that we were lied to? What is more important -- people or profits? A rhetorical question but maybe one that we should think about. The soundtrack was perfect. Great piece -- thanks for posting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bajan Blue Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 Love the music Bjorn - excellent And some of those adds - how to measure your wife for an Ironing table and my particular favorite, the advert saying Our Soldiers need our help and the line, Turns out you gals are useful after all...........wow, just wow. I think if someone wrote something like that today, even as a joke, a very well armed Bodyguard would be required!! Excellent stuff Nigel 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Joad Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 (edited) Very cool, did you use the YouTube studio to make the video? Edited April 25, 2023 by Old Joad 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnbee58 Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 I think my Mom took to heart the Winston cigarette ad about lower birth weight and easier delivery. I was barely over 5 pounds when I was born and had weak lungs as a result. She "confessed" that to my wife when she was pregnant with our son in 1981. Terrific video and the music fits perfectly. 😀John B 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjornpdx Posted April 26, 2023 Author Share Posted April 26, 2023 Thanks everyone for the comments Steve - yeah, lots of women bashing back then, supposedly in a humorous way Steve @baselines - they had Cocaine Candy back then - I think I was born too late freddy - it's always the profits Nigel - my wife was a little put off when I ran the video past her. Old Joad - I used OBS studio to capture the videos off YouTube and GreenShot to capture the still images. Then DaVinci Resolve for the vid. John - I still can't believe that Winston ad! -Bjorn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
