Aladdin and the Junior Genie
Washing day keeping you from a spin on your flying carpet? This quality cinema features a young apprentice genie learning a helpful solution.
You know when you want to take your Mum for a spin on your flying carpet, but she's too busy boiling the wash? No? Then perhaps you've already rubbed your magic lamp and got the news about Rinso washing powder from your genie, junior or senior. Watch this high quality cinema ad based on storyboards and designs from Alexander 'Man in a White Suit' Mackendrick (then employed by the J Walter Thompson advertising agency) and all will become clear.
Cinema Advertising Comes of Age
The 1930s saw screen advertising find its voice. That wasn't just down to the arrival of the 'talkies', but to the increasing professionalism of ad agencies and production companies.
Through WWII and the postwar austerity years and into the 'never had it so good' 1950s - when it had to compete with the new commercial television service - cinema advertising offered a bigger bang for your advertising buck.
