There's a lot of good information here, though I did want to let you know something - I am running Mac OS X with the current beta of Firefox, and the design of your blog is kind of quirky for me. I can read the articles, but the navigation doesn't function so good. Great article.

If I'm a kid in the forest, no, I don't want some old man floating in on a giant umbrella to carry me home. You're right on it, sjb. Everything ABOUT this ad screams creepy to me.

There is nothing in that ad that even implies creepiness or pretentiousness. From my vantage point, in the past year or 2, Travelers' used 3 very memorable ads; the shark cage, the SF ball of debris and this one (which re-introduces their icon). Kudos to whoever does their marketing as well as those on youtube who have a quite different opinion. Projecting? There is nothing in that ad that even implies creepiness or pretentiousness.

Kind of a take off on the magical RED BALLOON, superbly done with a great custom soundtrack. I smile every time this appears and have actually checked out the travelers website. ANY company that would promote such a whimsical fun ad must be patronized! Dave in Md BRILLIANT ad. Kind of a take off on the magical RED BALLOON, superbly done with a great custom soundtrack.
