The theme would be all the new advancements the iphone has and how technology is progressing all the time. Maybe have old tech stuff change throughout the commercial into new versions.

That seems weird to have so few entries and judge only those 20 entries, considering there were technical issues. I submitted my entry twice, and it was never posted. It was pretty clever, too. Congrats to Trey, though. Glad someone’s entry got through and won.

OK – thanks to all of you who took part in this one, and apologies to those who had trouble posting comments. There are some issues with the site’s mobile theme, so it has been disabled for the time being until those can be sorted out. Hopefully that will help.

Our esteemed panel of iSource editors / judges ha chosen a winner: Trey James. Our reasons for choosing him are:

— His idea is well thought out and clearly presented.

— It feels very Apple-like and does what all the iPhone commercials do – highlights unique and important features of the iPhone and iOS.

— It all ties together nicely. All three judges felt they like they could see this ad being done and looking good.

Congrats Trey – I’ll be emailing you later today to get your shipping details.

Everyone else – stay tuned for more of these daily Holiday contests.

People let me tell you ’bout my best friend,
He’s a warm hearted person who’ll love me till the end.
People let me tell you bout my best friend,
He’s a one boy cuddly toy, my up, my down, my pride and joy.

People let me tell you ’bout him he’s so much fun
Whether we’re talkin’ man to man or whether we’re talking son to son.
Cause he’s my best friend.
Yes he’s my best friend.

I submitted my post twice and it did not show up. Also that fact that there are only 18 post seems odd.

Also, I know I’m a little late, but your mobile site kept rejecting my comment on my iPhone saying it was too short. 🙁

Theme: Woman using siri to find the perfect gifts for her family

It would start off by showing a caption along the lines of “The holidays are always the busiest time of the year.” It would lead into videos of business owners/designers/customers getting ready for christmas. Another caption would come up saying “Why not make it easier this year?” You would then see work documents/presentations/worksheets being edited and viewed on the iPhone. It would then show the ease of transferring them through iCloud to a computer and them walking out of their business/workplaces. It would then show a picture of the same people from before going home to their families/friends for christmas. It would end with the iphone and a caption “keeping the holidays about whats really important.” The music would be “Christmas time all over the world” by Sammy Davis Jr.

Song – Pearl Jam – Do the Evolution

Here are the key lyrics:

Well, I’ve been afraid of changing
‘Cause I built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Children get older
I’m getting older too

I would cue up the music with the opening of the commercial, showing some of the new cool features of the iPhone 4S, then lead into people bumpin to the music while they show the new iPhone cruising through some apps. This would also help to show off some of the increased speed and performance of the new phone.

theme: a guy traveling home for the holidays, in busy airports, in taxis, etc… As he is on his way home he is using his iphone to find and pick up last minute presents for those he loves.

All I Want For Christmas Is You – Mariah Carey

Theme: a young woman opening a present from her boyfriend who is far away. Wow! it’s a beautiful iPhone. Next we see them sharing a special moment using Facetime. Happy Holidays!

After seeing the possibilities of what to do that day a girl wakes up from her bed and the next scene shows her leaving her apartment smiling at her iphone in which the chorus plays “I really want to go out, I really want to go outside and stop to see your day”. The commercial ends by fading into the apple logo.

Theme: Waiting in line for a new iPhone while this song plays overhead. That would be pretty awesome, right?

In that case…

I would chose Time by Pink Floyd. The theme of the ad is Siri’s Calendar integration and how Siri can manage your time intelligently. It knows that you already have a meeting. It can move appointments, reschedule, and save you Time.

The theme would be colour. It would creatively showcase the iPod nanos as colour drips from beneth them to form a rainbow that would then turn into a colourful rainbow/paint splatter Apple logo!
