Ford to Debut Unscripted :15s For Drive One Campaign

ford_drive_one_15_girl.jpg

Of Ford’s new Drive One commercials, The Ford Story blog tells us “The comments are as real as the people who made them. They are not scripted. In fact, these people didn’t know that it was Ford filming them, or that they would be used in commercials. That’s the only way to get genuine opinions, and that’s how these were produced.”

The campaign, in which Ford owners tell the camera what they like so much about their vehicles, breaks October 12. You can view eight of the commercials here.

Ford does seem to be fairing much better than GM. Will these spots help?

Psychology says the boomer generation had almost no cultural language for social anxiety or introversion—you were shy or you weren’t, you needed to push through it, you’d grow out of it—and the people who didn’t grow out of it simply learned to manage it well enough that nobody saw it, and arrived at later life with a perfectly functional social exterior and an interior that still finds every gathering costs considerably more than it appears to
