Giant Ant Media

I read on the AdHack blog today that Giant Ant Media was featured on YouTube’s front page. They’re the people who are behind the popular ‘How to Shower: Women vs. Men‘ vid, as well as a few other cool stop-animation movies online. Combined with sites like AdHack, this is the kind of enthusiastic creative media that will change what we think about advertising. Their website needs a little work though – anyone got some cycles to spare?

These guys are awesome.

  • This all looked too familiar so I searched my gmail for some keywords and found the forwarded email from October 2004 that container these exact men vs women instructions (yes, I have that much time on my hands). But at any rate, good on them for making a video of it :-P
  • Hi Trevor, thanks for the kind words. I'm wondering if you were meaning the AdHack website. If so, you wouldn't be wrong. We're working on it and trying to create a new way to find and create ads. Awesome to know you're interested.

    stumbled upon this somehow... and realized through your post that a couple of file ended up getting over-written on our site.

    It's fixed now, but thanks for the heads up.
