Today, I have a fun little activity for you guys. I have provided three Nestle Philippine NIDO commercials below, all of which are Thirty seconds in length. Nestle, being the mega company they are, produce the most high quality commercials shown on Philippine TV. I want you folks to observe all three videos and find all the similarities you can between them. Watch the videos in any order you desire,and take note of the reoccurring qualities regarding things like the actors, the acting, the videography, setting etc..When you have finished watching all three commercials, you can take a look at my observations I came across when viewing the videos. With my observations, you can check if you’ve found the same reoccurring qualities I did, and comment on the post if you’ve located something I missed. GO!

Similarities I found:

• light skinned actors
• mother and child only
• extremely bright lighting
• ~90% of dialogue is in English
• Americanized accents
• clean public areas
• seemingly private settings (gated communities)
• most have foreign-looking faces
• unnaturally thankful children
