2) A Honda Accord ad depicts a chain reaction of car parts, showing how perfectly engineered the car is and all that goes into building one.
3) A Skittles ad features a man who can turn objects into Skittles by touching them, suggesting that having too many Skittles would be overwhelming.
4) A T-Mobile ad shows a flash mob dancing in a train station to promote sharing life experiences on their phones through calls and photos.
