Been kinda slow around here, so I thought I'd list some ads

that I'm really really tired of:

Any GEICO caveman or lizard ad.

The Lauren Wallace ones are still

amusing, tho.

Any Hanes underwear ad, with or without Michael Jordan.

The stupid Craftsman robot (why stupid? Every time I see the ad I

have a vision of the car rocketting out of the pits, and spluttering

to a halt on the backstretch, because the robot didn't put any gas in).

Any Toyota Tundra commercial which features some absurd mechanical

contrivance breaking and almost crushing (or forcing off a cliff,

etc) the truck.

The Advance Auto Part commericals featuring some creep snooking

around in the dark and peering in on a guy working on his car.

Never liked the caveman. Think it's because that whole series of

commercials hits me as "let's make fun of any group that's offended to be

stereotyped and/or denigrated."

I do still like the gecko. Now that their sponsorship in the series

is over we're not going to see it, but I really would have liked to

see a tv commercial spinning off the radio commercial where Mike

Wallace is talking about the gecko being "going to ride with him every

week"....and the announcer says something like "Mike, you KNOW Geico

isn't going to let their spokesman ride in a dangerous race car" and

Mike replies that he *didn't* know that....and has already gotten "the

little guy" his own firesuit and everything.

Like Cousin Carl taking the track with the duck, I think gecko-in-car

could have made a really cute commercial. ­

Well, they could still do it, only with Mad Max instead of Mike

Wallace. The plan of the moment has Geico & Germain Racing doing

about half the Cup season next year.

(as an aside, I was impressed with the seamless edit on the voice

track of the first Lauren Wallace commercial, where "but you don't

race in the Busch series" was redone to "but you don't race in the

series". But they didn't figure out a way to morph a Chevy into

a Toyota in the background).

I noticed yesterday that I love the "Real Men of Genius"

beer commercials.

I think they're only on the radio.

I listen attentively even to those I've heard before.

Great comedy!

That is why I record the races and watch them later or the next day so I

can zip through the commercials and other BS. I am tired of the

commercials every 5 minuets. I am tired of being BLASTED OUT OF MY CHAIR

by commercials that are 3x louder than the race.

John,

It's actually not hard to do once you've had a little practiced

editing digitally. Depending on the inflection, they may have just

cut the word "Busch" from the original audio, or they may have had the

v/o talent re-record the one line. I'd need a really clean copy of

the audio to tell for sure, but I think they just edited out "Busch".

One other possibility is that, depending on when the audio was cut,

they might have known that Busch was going away, but didn't know who

the new primary sponsor was going to be, so they just had the talent

record both lines in the original session. That would make it easier

to edit it in, but it's not a requirement

In my current job, it's not uncommon for me to have to go in and

redo a line two or three months after the original recording (most

likely, because the client wants a script change). We know I'm done

when we edit in the new line, and you can't hear the difference. Most

of the time, I can get it in one or two takes.

take care,

Scott
