/r/CommercialPorn is a SFWPorn style subreddit for sharing good commercials. Unlike the SFWPorn network though, videos are allowed. In fact, this subreddit is exclusively videos. This subreddit is not part of the SFWPorn network.

Aren't commercials bad?

Some think of commercials as a filthy byproduct of our consumerist society, trying to trick our weak, susceptible minds into buying more stuff. And many of them are. But sometimes advertising can be art, humor, storytelling, or more. Either way, if you think it's good for whatever reason, whether it's entertaining, convinces you to purchase something, grips your emotions, or is visually interesting, you can share it here. Discussion and analysis is encouraged, you get bonus points for explaining why you think it's good.

RULES FOR POSTING

1. Reposts are okay if it didn't do very well last time or it's been a while, at least 6 months. Use your judgement, send a message to the mods if you have any questions.

2. Links to commercials only. If you want to provide background or analysis, make a comment in the post. Please try to use YouTube/Vimeo, the higher the quality the better your post will do.

3. The title of the ad should be the submission title. Then please tag the company/product being advertised, the agency/director that produced the ad, and the year in parentheses (if it's recent you can include the month as well). A few words of commentary or awards after that is fine. Here's an example:

Crazy Ones [Apple Computer][Chiat\Day](1998) Part of Apple's Think Different campaign

What if I can't find a title?

Put the name of the campaign or at the very least a short descriptive title (try to stay below 5 words or so), maybe from the catchphrase or an important part of the narration.

What if I can't find a director/agency?

Try using Google. If you've googled your hardest, and you still can't find anything (unlikely), just exclude it. But remember, the advertising gods will hate you if you're just being lazy, and maybe you'll lose all your karma one day.

What if I can't find a year?

Yes you can, approximate.

OTHER RULES

Since this subreddit is new there aren't many rules yet. Just don't be a dick, and contribute good content. Things will be moderated if they violate those two principles. If you have suggestions or issues, send a message to the moderators.

What about radio ads?

Yes those are fine too.
