Dew Girls

wow. scary, yet hypnotic.

nice production, take that hairy guy out and it's a winner.....he does not belong in this and only makes this spot memorable for being creepy and hairy....

Y'know, it'd probably take you a week to get that look through digital processing. Great deployment of equipment, clever idea, and a skewed approach to the Dew persona. Yeah, gets a GL.

Fabuloso k bhee GL fo sho!

I completely disagree with the hairy guy comment, the hair man makes this piece so completely european and even more surreal!

That kinda creeped me out, but it was kinda cool at the same time.

That is so super sexy I just watched it four times.

Greenlight for production design and costume design. Another greenlight for use of analog 80s camera - looks great. If only you could use one of those 80s songs ("Oh Mickie you're so fine... OH MICKIE!") to go with it... [sigh]

this is pure genius. it's cliche where it needs to be, it's sexy, it's funny, it's great visually without looking too stuffy...great job!

Sexy, i can't stop staring at the girl's underwear! Either that makes me a perv or this is a successful ad. Because I'm about to go buy me a mountain dew. GL.

i love this!!!!! its completely original and totally sexy!! i want a mountain dew in one hand and a dew girl in the other!!!!

amazing. i love this commercial and i don't even like mountain dew. it's perfect.

Really Retro look and feel lots of vivid colors and textures!
Great job and hope to see more of that.

It's hot and it's cool. I love the hot girls and the message gets through. I bet they want to show this in other countries. It's too sensual for puritan minds here. Great work U &K

Nice camera work and use of color. Analog? WOW. GL

Great colors and movement! I'm not crazy about the music, but that's a personal thing I guess. The looks on the girls' faces are priceless! If you have a moment, please check out my latest pod, GLAMAZONIA, and let me know what you think.

Wow! 15 posts in 1 day, 47 GL's in three you cant buy that kind of attention! Great job!! Like they say sex sells and everyones buyin'... Me too... Great look and feel. brings me back to a Sheena Eastons "Strut" video videotape i had in the mid 80s. man do i miss that VHS tape.... GL!

Mountain Dew lowers your sperm count I've heard, but regardless of that the girls are sexy and I could go for one (Mountain Dew) right now.

good

Definitely hype. GL.

Delicious kitsch. The pacing, colors, vitality -- all of it is right on the mark. Fabulous.

very ugly clothes -not only does sex sells uglyness does too. Good colors.

enter your post here LOVE THE COLORS AND THE MUSIC IS REALLY GOOD

I thought abot this since yesterday, so it is a good commercial- GL

Does anybody care that we are investing so much time, energy, creativity (our mot prescious resources as artists/human beings) making corporate propaganda to sell children and semi-brain dead adults (their parents?) on products that only harm people and make the world a worse place? Mountain Dew is one of the worst offenders on so many levels: environmentally, cuturally, health, etc.

Do you ever think about what you are dedicating your creative talents to?

Just asking?

First, thanks everyone for the great feedback. I'm absolutely thrilled that people like my little ad. It's my first attempt at doing anything even remotely "commercial."

Second, to address the previous comment: Mountain Dew and Current are giving a starving artist a chance to make some money on their creative skills. Really, where else could I just pop in out of nowhere and get an opportunity to do that? And get my stuff broadcast, to top it all off. Ideally, I'd love to make a living off of my skills and creativity. Who wouldn't? If Mountain Dew is going to give me a little boost in that direction, great!

Also, speaking from a more personal point of view, I was having a creative block. Making this ad was a lot of fun and getting positive feedback was so encouraging that it melted my artisitc freeze. So even if I don't make a cent, it's been a useful experience because kept me working and excercising my creativity and skills even when I wasn't feeling my most brilliant. If I needed something as playful as a soft drink ad to get my juices flowing again, so be it.

Anyway, I share your concerns about health and environmental issues (a glance around my kitchen and you'd know I was a total health nut). But sometimes I just need to smile, relax, and muck about in pop culture just a bit. Because in the end, it's just an ad, right? And I like to think the the Current audience is savvy enough that if they don't like a product for one reason or another, then even the best, most appealing ads can't persuade them. Think about the audience. It's not really a channel for young impressionable children, afterall. They strike me as people who make their own informed descisions.

That's my two cents.

I completely agree art vamp. I've had the exact same experience here on current, And I too feel that it is an excellent way to be seen, get feedback and do something I normally do. It's a great creative outlet.

wow that clip was simply WHORible! seriously now what the frick was that? put some friggin clothes on and stop being stupid!

Re: previous post: My my, SOMEONE needs a little love in their life. Hopefully things will look up for you...

haha SOMEONE does have love in their life. sorry art tramp your lil clip just sucks, that's all

You damn right! Out of all the things going wrong in the world making mountain dew commercials is low on my list. I too am a starving artist just fresh out of film school. I wish I could be paid to indulge my artistic wiles and maybe one day I will. Until then I plan on selling out all the way to the bank. This is a great way to create, get noticed, and possibly get some cash without being owned by a company. Someone once told me: Your not a real artist, all the real artists have been snatched up by the ad agencies.
As far as these personal attacks below go don't even give them a thought. Letting anyone who calls themselves illmitchfan get under your skin is a waste of time.

Nice job dude!
nice concept.
As far as background you should have had at least added a flash background of a couple second for certain parts!
Nice
Green light

Verry funny! almost has a euro quality to it... Right on! What camera did you use to shoot it, it looks good, I used a canon XL2 on mine... I was satisfied with the result.. PEACE OUT!!! GL!

They sure are Doing to Dew! Looks like you had lots of fun making this one! I gotta find me some more models for my next film! :-) GL from me!

a parody. good art work and direction. congratulations! i will see your other works

Congratulations to all of your team!

I would love your criticism on, "New Year's Favorite".
-Good Track

Love it Want to me my add? GL

Cool! Very edgy and gratuitous (in a funny way) with the dancing girls and the Mountain Dew just thrown in there - GL!

Check out my Sony VCAM if you have a quick minute...thanks!

Great Setup. Colors are perfect for the cause, and music is Fit! GL!
Would you please check out my Sim's 2 Season's Take III commercial? I'd really appreciate your time.

Sweet! GL.

I really like this ad, it's ready for the tube. GL. check out my ad and tell me what you think. My ad is titled Don't stop the Party for L'Oreal. <a href=" http://www.current.tv/watch/85403312">link</...
Try using .mov for your compression it will make your content much clearer

could also be an American Apparel commercial too, lol
