The Advertising Association is a federation of twenty-six trade bodies and is one of the main representative institutions in the field of advertising in the UK. It provides information on the latest legislation as well as upcoming events and details for students on how to join the industry in addition to a useful page of links to a number of important related organisations.
Part of the Internet Archive, which also covers archived moving images (The Internet Moving Images Archive), audio and software, the Wayback Machine holds cached versions of thousands of websites and billions of pages, allowing users to look at sites that are no longer available or at earlier versions of ones that are still around. An invaluable resource that, due to the gigantic nature of the holdings, is slightly hampered by the fact that no list of the holdings can be easily provided. This means inevitably that correct recall of the URL in question is necessary, or failing that, searching for it on the web first.
A highly entertaining website devoted to adverts originally made exclusively for distribution in Japan featuring such stars as Rowan Atkinson, David Beckham, Kevin Costner, Harrison Ford, Madonna, Catherine Zeta Jones and even Wallace and Gromit. The site can be searched alphabetically by personality and QuickTime is required to view the adequately encoded video.
This commercial site provides a useful archive of adverts going back to 1997 which can be searched by brand or company, and includes items produced for TV, radio, cinema and internet as well as print, including direct mail and door drop leaflets. These can be purchased from the site and are made available on DVD, VHS, U-matic, and CD. Every month three adverts are picked as being the best on offer and an archive of these going back to May 2002 is streamed and available to view via Windows Media Player, all with top-notch encoding. The JISC has now entered into an agreement with Creative Club to allow access for its member organisations at special rates.
