Christmas is round the corner.

Since Christmas is round the corner, I'll start off with this new John Lewis Christmas Advert 2011.

Agency: Adam & Eve London



The acting by this kid is amazing, the impatience and frustration expressed on his face is well portrayed. The Art direction and the mood for the whole advert is very dreamy, tear-jerking and filled with emotions. There is a twist with this advert. Instead of receiving, it's more of giving. Taking the greed away rather than wanting more, from a young kid's perspective. The score to this advert features a version of The Smiths' 'Please, Please, Please, Let Me Get What I Want'

The following video is the making of this advert.




Another advert from John Lewis since we're on the topic of Christmas.



Very smart shadow play advert.
