Softbank & Otoousan

Yes, another video!

Softbank, one of the leading phone companies in Japan, often uses American celebrities like Cameron Diaz and Brad Pitt for it's ads. Brad's been doing Softbank ads for a while now, but I thought I would share this new commercial... not because of Brad, though... but because of "Otousan" (the dog/dad)!



Some mad-minded marketing genius came up with the idea to make this white dog (head of the "White Family") the new face of Softbank. In the commercials and campaign in general, the talking dog and his black, human son, Japanese wife and Japanese daughter, live a normal, happy life - made more convenient with Softbank, of course!

I got the same talking, stuffed toy (cell phone strap!) that Brad holds up with my new cell phone last summer :)
