Hope Advertising will probably have hoped Dr Mumbo never caught wind of this reeking infomercial they created for the Munchkin Nappy Disposal System.

Hope Advertising look like they do a bit of everything.
Pity the client didn’t use experts to create this TVC/video.
Looks like quite a nifty device.

She sounds like she needs a soother. Or a pack less of winnie blue a day.

Awkward pauses, muddled dialogue…its like watching a high school play.

I hate it when people are so negative about a small company doing their own ads. This was probably cutting edge advertising when it was released in the early 90’s and all their budget could afford.

As shocking as the production of the ad is. It still does a pretty good job of showing what its selling. Still got me to go to the website and check it out.

What’s with all the negativity Dr Mumbo? Haven’t you been reading the comments on other posts elsewhere on this site? This mean-spirited cynicism brings us all down – how are we supposed to foster a creative atmosphere and improve Australian work as an industry in this climate of tall poppy syndrome?
At least have the decency to use your real name.
PersonalIy I intend to share this with my weekly “Towards a Brighter More Creative Future: Marketing Luvvies Take Back the Night” lunch group.
I think the blonde lead shouldn’t have chuffed down half a pack of death sticks in between takes, it might have improved the quality, marginally.

When good products meet the Marketing Director’s, cousin’s, film student friends.

Tacky to the max – Christine (main “actor”) should foget about acting and stick to cleaning up her crap

So tacky! So tacky! SO SO SO TACKY!!!!
Why do advertising agencies / marketing directors think that this poor excuse for advert (sorry ‘infomercial’) actually appeals to the consumer?
Seriously get your head out of your behind (pun intended!) and develop something worthwhile – and clients DON’T PAY FOR THIS CRAP!!

They clearly have no budget and agree with AdGrunt that it’s people they know in order to cut costs. The choice is – pay more money for something of quality and they can be proud of or rethink the strategy, there is more to marketing than TVC’s.

The reason for the negativity (mine anyway) is because this video is amateurish which makes a good product look amateurish.
The shooting, lighting and sound recording are fine. But this script as written needs actors.
If they could only get or afford ‘real people’ then another script should have been written that would have suited the limitations of non-actors.
They would have ended up with a much better result.

agree 100% with Tony Richardson, good product – poorly sold in terms of scriping and delivery – Christine would have been better as a customer testimonial rather than main actor! BUT have to say Chris D – infomericals done well are highly effective – YES consumers watch them and YES consumers call that number on the screen!!
