Political Advertisement

This lighter reminded me of video artists' works, such as Antonio Muntadas' Political Advertisement 2004 (source Video Data Bank) documenting the selling of the American presidency features political ads from the 1950s to ads from the 2004 campaigns, and highlights the development of the political strategy and marketing techniques of the TV campaign process.

TVTV's rag-tag army of guerrilla television activists turned their cameras on to the cocktail parties, anti-war demonstrations. Sample video is available at Video Data Bank. To watch the video click here
