Title: Red FC By the Dock Advert Post by: Shayne on July 16, 2006, 02:46:55 AM Hi all,
I don't remember seeing this one before, so thought I would post it here for all to see. (http://i1.tinypic.com/1zznadw.jpg) Mr Linklater was the artist commissioned by GMH for this series of adverts. You have probably noticed how the cars are always 'bigger' in the ads making most of the people seem like they were only 4 feet 6 inches high!

The reason the people are drawn out of scale (small) is to give the impresssion that there's bags of room in the car. Have a look how much room the people in the front seat appear to have; and two kids near the back door? Yep, tons of room for the Aussie family - a true Aussie 6 seater sedan. The famous example of doing this is an advert for the F#*d Anglia with the reverse sloping rear window. Driver is depicted much smaller, giving the impression of stacks of room in what is, in reality, a bloody small car.
