Yoplait - Schtoozim - Curly & Puffy Floating

YMMV, but this ad is pretty noteworthy to me for how surreal it is.  Another from Gravity.Co.Il.

In this ad, a fairy/witch goes around and poofs outfits and long hairs into curly, floating, puffy things.  It could be more awesome if she lived in a live action world, but she instead lives in this paper animation/CG world.  It’s not so bad when you see live action faces on animated bodies, but the fact it’s adolescents who seem more like props, versus knowing or reacting to what’s going on, makes this ad YMMV.

Keep something in mind: Yoplait has been doing great things with Gravity, so I think I should dig a bit more.

Alts:

Lifesavers Squeez-Its - Animated Tongue

Not much I noticed in this ad. DId I miss something? But in one scene, a girl has a long animated tongue that she uses to lick a lifesavers into a faint hoop & nothingness.

YMMV, though.

Despicable Me - Minion Ride (Minion TF) - 5:31

Thanks to MonsterMaster13 for sending this!  Must’ve looked long and hard, so I appreciate this. B)  This isn’t an ad, but it’s part of a live action ride. Since Universal may not want this online, I suggest you download it ASAP…

At 5:31, you can see a live action kid is hit with a beam (from off-screen), and is poof-TFed into three different forms.  YMMV, but could be worth your time :D  Might be worth seeing in person, too!

Fruit Roll Ups - 1001 Taste Adventures (#1) - Neighborhood

In this ad, the wizard Rolluppo (sp?) comes flying down, and when kids bite a bit of a fruit roll up, they’re smoothly moved off-screen and animated in the new location, or in the same location.  Pretty slick for early 1990s.

Definitely a fave. I suggest you download it.  Features: A girl who bites one, and begins (animated) twisting uncontrollably, a girl who bites one, pops down offscreen and rockets (animated) up as a 2D square plane, and finally a boy who bites one and is pulled down into a zig-zag spring shape (2d similarly) and bounces around.

FYI, THIS IS JUST ONE OF AT LEAST TWO IN THIS SERIES.  IN ANOTHER, KIDS ARE TURNED INTO OTHER SHAPES, LIKE FIGURE 8s or CARS.  Finding this series has to be one of my major passions of this blog—the other ones are fondly remembered, and probably why I started this blog.

Info at Metamorphose, too.

Thanks for reminding me I hadn’t posted this, anon!

Our Dynamic Earth - Monkey TF And De-evolution

In this ad, a man who is talking about “Our Dynamic Earth” turns into a human ancestor/predecessor, then turns into a dinosaur, then on and on..!

(Shame he didn’t revert in between each one. :( )

Stolen from Kronfli Duliba Production’s site. (Sorry, I would’ve linked to a youtube posting of yours, but I don’t see any there. :( ) Also: Credit to HallOfAdvertising on youtube for directing me to their site!

SuperMercado Gonçalves - Bunny Heads

In this ad, people who shop, work at, or enjoy Gonçalves supermarkets have CG/toony bunny heads on top of their own.  The family you see throughout the ad walks out of Gonçalves with such heads— no TF, sadly.

YMMV.

Kelloggs Frosted Bran - Businessman TF

In this ad, a businessman in a big lounger chair gets excited about Frosted Bran (Frosted FLakes), becomes animated while getting excited, resulting in some wacky actions.. Such as flying around the room.  Eventually, he gets back to where he rests and ‘regains normalcy’ or something.

French Cheese - Friends 4 Life 2

Another commercial where the personifications of cheese dance with people.

French Cheeses - Animated Interaction

In this ad, people interact with toonish personifications of cheeses.

Involves some hand-holding at the end, not so bad.. but not too amazing.

Kool Aid - Around the World in 3 Bursts

In this ad, a boy and two friends are at the top of the Empire State Building (or some other tall office building.)

Kool-Aid man provides a Kool-Aid Bursts to the boy, who has a ‘wild take’ reaction, and he’s rocketed away to a bullfight.  There, he uses Kool-Aid bursts to turn into a Burst bottle himself, and he shoots the juice into the bull’s mouth, curlilng its horns into the bottles and also turning it red.  Lastly, he bursts away into Egypt, gains an animated boiling kettle for a head, and then tries Bursts to bounce around and finally break through to China.

Pretty cool.  One of my fave parts is that the Kool-Aid man, on his balloon ascent to the roof of the building, has another girl accompanying him with a shaking/jittery Bursts bottle.
