This ad for GE starts off very serious, but once you see that electrical pole moving and hear the country music begin playing, you can’t help but have a grin on your face. I really like the “out of the box” method GE used for this commercial in order to convey the message of saving energy.
The ad was created by advertising agency BBDO, New York with creative direction by David Lubars, Bill Bruce, Don Schneider, Tom Darbyshire, and Ted Shaine.
