SOAP Commercial ideas.
Apr 25, 2007 by SapAuthor We need to put some commercials out. I was thinking making the flash stick-man commercials, they are simple, don't take a lot of time, and can be funny to watch. I was thinking of a line up of SOAP commercials, with a continual "Soaps, doing For instance, here's a couple ideas. Please put down ur own ideas of similar format that can be made and situations, and any tips. I want to focus a lot on how soaps compliment inline for the inliner crowd, and also comfert and other fun stuff. SOAP COMMERCIAL 1 A guy is standing next to an old lady with a purse. A theif runs by and takes the purse and starts running down the stairs with it. The guy standing next starts to run down the stairs after (this will be a side view), then a mysterious other stick man guy appears with SOAP shoes, jumping onto the stair rail and sliding/diving into the theif. Cuts out to the old lady getting back her purse. "SOAPs, saving old ladies since _____" Commercial 2 Boy by a girl, below a stair with rail. Boy has though bubble of him blading down the stair to impress hte girl, but remembers he doesn't have his inlines on. Then, a SOAPer slides down the rail, and either slams into the boy or something else, eliminating him fromt he scene or wahtever, and hte girl takes the SOAPer's hand and they walk off. "SOAPs Wining over the ladies anywhere, anytime, since _____" Commercial 3 In the distance there is a shining, 'holy' grind rail with an picture of inlines with a cross through them. An inliner goes to grind, and a laser comes out and vaporizes him (no, i don't have anything against inliners, but seeing stick people vaporized makes me happy). A guy with SOAPs sneaks in, and is able to grind on the holy grail into a shining light in the distance. "SOAPs, going where you blades aren't allowed since ____" Tell me waht you think. I know the laser may seem like i wantt o blast inliners, but that's not hte case lol. The laser is metaphor for security gaurds, or other security that prevents people from grinding, stuff like malls. Replies

A guy is sitting on the couch with SOAPs on. Another one comes in "dude, arent those the grind plate shoes?" couch guy "What? They grind? All i know is they are extremely comfertable." "SOAPs. Yes they do grind, yes they are comfertable...um...since _____"

What would make a more sound argument would be to mix Trev's third idea with AJ's one. Take a scenario where there's a security guard hanging around a good spot; a skateboarder rolls up reading to gap a stair set and the guard busts him. An inliner then turns up, is about to take a go at the rail but, again, the security guard tells him where to go. Then a guy in shoes walks up, the guard thinks nothing of it until the kid hops up on the rail and busts a super-stylish grind and runs off. Throw in some typical anti-skating identifiers like 'no skating' signs etc and you have something that the general public can recognise due to the presence of inliners and wood-pushers along the subversion of the 'no skating' environment

just some thoughts.

I want to make these funny so people show others though, something to really catch their attention. I remember some of the old SOAP stuff often was just crazy stuff like that, funny things (like the weird description for shoes. Boltars! Global domination!" type of things :P

Stick guy is walking, and walks over a crack. Then a "elsewhere" it shows his mom breaking her back.
Then, there is a stick guy with SOAP shoes on (has the arch) and he steps over the crack, but the plate prevents him from stepping on the crack. Again a meanwhile of his mom being fine.
"SOAPs, saving mother's backs since 1998"

Just drop the Stick figure idea, its dumb
May 20, 2007AnthoFlex
Have a split screen of a real Soaper and a stick figure doing the same thing. But the stick figure must be drawn out very crappy yet, the animation must be as smooth as the actualy clip showing. The backround, soaper, and rail has to be drawn out like if it were drawn by a bored kid in math class in his notebook....
Here is an AWESOME example of crappy drawing (looks like the paint program was used! :p ) but with a very very smooth animation of real clips, the only difference is that the actual clips werent used as a split screen:

Antho, have you looked into how much it would cost to have the advert put out on television networks? Advertising is a fierce business and, unless you can front the money yourself, HSL aren't going to dropping megabucks for an advertising campaign that they've had no control over, and for a product that they clearly have no intention of currently promoting at such a level. That said, if your initial plan was to put the advertisement out on the net, the idea is good but you'd probably be better off just cutting a really good crew edit and use that as marketing material
May 21, 2007AnthoFlex
Yea, that was my original plan anywayz. I have a lot of Sk8r friends and Razor scooter friends that are really really good. They should do really well in helping me out with this.
I dunno if i said this before, but i refuse to do it unless it is with a really good camera. There is NO way in hell my current camera can do the job. I need a Digital cam. Probably one of those fancy 3CCD ones, i dunno too much about cameras.
I'm saying that because if you guys have ever seen sk8 videos on the net, and then you see a sk8 video on DVD or VHS, you would see that there is a GREAT GREAT difference in quality. Everythign is crystal clear, with no pixels and Frames lost. Its all in real time. Thats why i wanna do this commercial with a very High quality cam

Then have a seemingly innocent soaper walk right on by past the unsuspecting cop and grind the rail with no problems.
May 22, 2007rhinoskater30
When there is the money, and a good plan, and ESPECIALLY when Soap gets another sole plate, THAT'S when we put out the commercial.
.....Please no stick figures!!! XO
May 23, 2007SpiderSoaper
Rhino wat u said comes to my mind as well, kids will get heelys cause they ride and grind,,,, but do they have other varieties of plate? no they dont. so soap has a little advantage

Tell me what you think, and yes, I know it could be smoother, and if everyone likes it enough, I'll redo it.
May 30, 2007AnthoFlex
What kind of example are you trying to set for Soap? It has a crappy enough rep, dunt make it look more stupid.
Ok, you get props for the animation, that musta took you long, but dude...the stick figures...why?
