Taiwanese TV Commercial


This TV commercial of Taiwan Acer's TravelMate C100 won the first prize of British Television AD Awards in 2003. The scene was filmed in AliShan, JiaYi County, Taiwan The commercial film doesn't only promote Acer laptops but also shows the beauty of Taiwan. The only issue I have with this film is why they used a male western traveler's perspective again. Isn't the method over-used and too cliché? Would it be more interesting to switch genders? A female westerner visiting and encountering a native Taiwanese male might be more fun.

Yeah, I think it has very good cinematography, but the idea behind it seems a bit outdated and clichéd. Regardless of gender, this is a somewhat dated commercial idea-wise.

Hi Junku, I agree. There are many TV commercials using the same story lines and same old concepts over and over, especially those ones for cars. We have to wonder that the script writers either are older people or too conservative to create new ideas.

Have you been in Taiwan? Bityz. There are many magnificent places in Taiwan. One day, I would like to visit China. Beijing was my late father's hometown. No matter what political point of view I have now, I shall visit my own father's hometown at least once in my life time.
