P&G's ad, the best job

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ywO8DR-5NY<= here is the advertisement for P&G, which is the best ad I have seen so far.

When I told Dr. Scott Sanders that I already found out the advertisement to write about, he just said,"Well, what I want you to write is just about the paper ad." and here is the change of my face:
from this (・∀・) to this(°□°;) to this (╯-_-)╯╧╧, and finally became this (′・ω・`).
Therefore, I decided to talk about the ad I chose before Monday.

This 2-min-long ad is specially for the 2012 London Olympics. In the beginning, soothing piano song started with different languages for moms to waken their children in morning in different family. With the music becoming increasingly faster, their daily life starts. Different kinds of food shows on the screen, little bun(a traditional Chinese food, which my mom always used as my breakfast when in China), bread with beans, and bananas. The moms then sends their children for schools for different modes of transports, metro, bus and cars. The children do their daily practice or play with their peers with different sports, volleyball, swimming, balance beam, and running, while their mothers just sit in distance and watch their children quietly with smiles on their faces. Time passes, while the children have grown in their training, life, hurt, and small success. Their mothers just support them in their back, washing their clothes, do the dishes, comfort them when be hurt. When a little girl stands at  the balance beam and looks at her mom with little fear and excitement, music reach a its climax. With a beautiful forward somersault, the little girl suddenly becomes an adult dressing with America's shirt, which means she is now fighting in the 2012 Olympics Game. The little Chinese girl has become a swimmers and won the golden medal in the Olympics after hard training for several years, when her mom and family are sitting around the TV and celebrate her. The children in the video are all becoming a successful athletes and win the medal in 2012 Olympics Game. At this time, the pace of music and story becomes slow. The black youngster are kneeling on the runway and throw his mom a kiss. The girl are running to her mom and giving her mom a huge, so is the young fellow from Brazil. Although the Chinese girl could not meet her mom immediately, she still expresses her thank to her mom. Then, words appear on the screen," The hardest job in the world, is the best job in the world. Thank you, Mom."

People in the world have many differences, which always leads to conflicts in the world. However, the love of mom, the simplest love in the world , remains the same. "One world, one dream." This ad give another explanation of it. The dream that every mom to their child is the same. Every dream needs the support of mom. Thank you,mom.

  1. That's why I love the Olympics and World Cup. The world comes together for these games and the world seems to slow down and enjoy the games. Some of the ads are pretty inspiring like this one and have a deeper meaning than the ones we watch for the Super Bowl. I'll definitely have to check it out later.

  2. Nice ad! I agree with Jacob about his comments about everyone coming in together as a close knit society during sport events.
