This is a two-minute film called "Cog". "Cog" is a British television and cinema advertisement launched by Honda in 2003 to promote the seventh-generation Accord line of cars. It follows a chain of colliding parts taken from a disassembled Accord. Wieden and Kennedy developed a GB£6 million marketing campaign around "Cog" and its partner pieces, "Sense" and "Everyday", broadcast later in the year. The Mill to handle post-production. The commercial took 606 takes to do. All it took was one gear or valve or tire not going as planned to start the whole process over There was no computer graphics or manipulation, it is an actual Rube Goldberg machine. The 120-second final cut of "Cog" was broadcast on British television on 6 April 2003, during a commercial break in ITV's coverage of the 2003 Brazilian Grand Prix.

  1. Dear Dung,
    Overall, your entry is quite interesting. Besides, I still have some points to add as follow:
    In the first item, I think personal value is not only security but also pleasure
    In the second item, in my opinion, the product attribute should be "perfect and high-quality". That is more general than modern and accurate. I hope that my comments will be useful for u!
    Have a nice weekend!

  2. Dear Dung, I think you have made a good entry, congrats.
    I just don't know why u left it blank in the description of the item 2. U can describe it as parts of the car move and work perfectly with each other and at last we see the complete car.
    Basically i don't suggest any other changes on your entry, because to me it's good. Well done!

  3. Dear dung,
    In general, I think that your entry is really good. However, I have some comments as followed:
    Firstly, besides what you have written down in the attributes of these products and their benefits, I think that Mcdolnalds’ products also give us nutrition and a healthy life. Secondly, i suppose that ‘high quality products’ is one of the product attributes you need to mention here. And I totally agree with you in the last advertisement.
    I hope that these things will be useful for you.
    Best,
    hoangtrang

  4. Hello Dung! After reading your entry 2, I have some comments for you.
    - First, I like all 3 items here because they are really interesting and impressive, especially the last advertisement of Pepsi.

    - About the first item: I think “customer benefits” also have “healthy” because you said that the vegetables salad is fresh. Thus, there is one more point in “personal values”, that is “pleasure”.

    - About the second item: From my perspective, there are no “pleasure” and “excitement” in personal values here because they are not indicated in this advertisement.

    - About the last item:
    + I see that the general selling proposition is “Ask for more” (You can see it in this advertisement).
    + I don’t know what you mean by giving “Social power” and “Recognition” in personal values. Can you explain them for me?
    + Execution styles also have “musical”.

    In general, you did a good job. I hope that my comments will be useful for you.
