The much anticipated Coca-Cola ad with Jack White music has mysteriously leaked on to YouTube (I'm sure this is intentional to work up some heat in the blogosphere). What does everyone think? (Personally, I think it's better than most Coke stuff (admittedly a low bar) but has an eerie semblance to an old White Stripes promo.)
Hi Gareth! Great blog. Just thought you'd like to know, the advert's probably a bit closer to this music video:

The ad's shot by the same director (Nagi Noda) for the boys over at Mother London.

Hi Gareth. Another little tid bit I thought you might like to know. The ad's now "officially" released over at shots.net. http://www.shots.net/movieplayer.asp?id=35840&uid=6EE98750-A50E-4317-9F33-B3288F627658

I stumbled across your blog while I was doing some online research. I haven't seen the ad yet, but I keep wondering how these things get leaked. Is this deliberate to guage the reaction?

Depends, but more and more they seem to be launched online with the hope to build some buzz before the ad breaks in a more mainstream nature.
