Man i loved their Flaunt piece but this here is crap sorry for the honesty. It’s like 10 years ago. Ribbons? Extruded stars and fonts? Wtf? This is quickies material at best.

I have no idea how this made it up here.

Full Sail Grads.

No pun intended but it wouldn’t be the first time that Motionographer posts crap in the main section while putting the good stuff in the quickies and vice versa. Todays example is Royales ribbon and extrusion BS fully featured while shoving the much more interesting Nick Germany idents into the quickies.

I still love Justin Cone

I think this was a campaign that was already developed by JWT and Royale’s role was creating a motion piece based on JWT’s print campaign. I’ve seen the billboards at bus stops long before the commercial ever arrived. I thought both the animation and sensibility were beautiful.

Seriously, what’s up with all the hating? It’s a great spot, Royale did an amazing job adding a subtle layer of style to the existing design of the ad campaign.
Marc B. hold on tight to those “awards”, wish you best of luck.

i actually kinda like this. mostly because i’m glad jetblue makes flying fun, and the graphics match their attitude. i really dug the live action, and choice of casting (esp. freak out weird dancing guy).

Marc, so what if theres cliches in there. theres cliches in my reel too. who cares? we cant all be the most avant garde fucked up weirdo no one gets my shit types of designers all the time. You give and take based on your audience.

Flaunt and Diesel (esp Flaunt) people can understand the style of what they did there. Jetblue needs to appeal to a larger and broader crowd, while still trying to have an edge and they succeeded.

Hahaha!

Marc, bow down to the amazingness that is Royale!

I miss my babies.

I don’t actually think that’s Marc’s site he posted. He’s just having a laugh. Besides, Royale should be really pleased, as it’s now kind of become a badge of honour to have Marc slag off your work here on Motionographer. It’s even better when a few of his cronies get in on the act too.I know the drubbing Marc B & friends gave my Save The Children campaign kept me in good spirits for days…

Didn’t ya’all hear me say i loved their Flaunt piece but hate this?
If you can’t admit its crap especially now that i know the design came from the client then something is wrong with you.

What’s great about it? Ugly design tracked into live-action. Wow.

Even i know ribbons, extruded stars and fonts are a crime against humanity nowadays. And the animation isn’t even that fancy to make up for it.

this idea is a cheap and badly executed rip off of SO MANY things done SO MUCH better SO MANY times before. come on people. let’s get back to things original.

Are ad agencies now required by law to use “Mr. Blue Sky” in every television commercial?

the only thing this spot did wrong was get posted on the main page, it could have lived in peace in the quickies.

Those Nick idents are pretty cool, by the way.

rad, keep on keeping on guys. Have you heard anything new about ****more’s mom?

Thanks for the post, Justin! Royale are always welcome.
