Blueprint TV Ads says it all

I like Ads to observe creativity of the concept designer and also visual presentation for which you won’t be getting up and grabbing that phone to pickup. Are there laws in countries around the world for any kind of punishment for ADs that lie ? Forget about  the question for now, for Ads don’t belong to a TV Network and they will surely put any ADs. But once the Ad is in the air, who monitors them ?

You and I can only observe. You are lucky with that live and pause TV, perhaps you will have enough time to find where you left that huge Magnifying glass so you can find the smallest fonts used on TV Ads which I have no clue others call it blueprint or are my eyes so hurt looking at um and trying to make any sense of it all.

First we all need to find the answers on small fonts.

  • Suppose I wrote a letter to you, you owed me money, and my letter was so tiny that you had to go buy a magnifying glass. You would probably slap me.
  • Smaller, the better. Put them in such a way that laws are on your side so on your body will sue you, forget about viewers because they have already seen the largest font $99 and FREE SHIPPING, Hurry, time is limited. Oh yeah, don’t you just love it when they raise the volume, Only so and so remaining, call in the next hours to get 3 pairs FREE or don’t be fooled if they are throwing you a car! LOL, please help me, my belly hurts.

Without ADs, perhaps nothing would be here to watch. Ads also help us create jobs. So many AD agencies are busy, bunches of people are working day and night for so many different projects. Ads that are shorter and funnier seem to be fun to re-watch time and again, perhaps I would be likely to remember it and buy product or services from that company.

Ads that I would certainly not accept are

  • Any Ads that directly or indirectly compare to another company. Be the best on your own is my motto, so those kind of Ads are like No No to me! Those who are the best need no comparison, they are here, have been around and folks know. They were not born yesterday unless your product was for a baby; did you really create one for  the baby of such age! You Fool! LOL, help me out here!
  • Ads that makes me a complete fool
  • Ads that are just too good to be true; make money, get rich quick kind of SCAMS. Such ads are allowed to be run, what a joke! It’s okay if one guy or network makes the money and bunches of others lose the job. Economy won’t pick good or bad people. It’s just Economy.
  • Any ads that leaves me with bunches of words that I can’t read. I call them, …. there, just because of those, I ain’t gonna buy your product.

Here is size of Magnifying glass and links for you on where to buy. But you can use what your grandma / grandpa used. Get one, stick it somewhere near the TV.

Blueprints, here they come. Watch out world.
