Just a Spark

Length: 9 Minutes | Produced:1937

This is a Chevrolet promotional video disguised as a forest fire prevention film, a popular promotional technique at the time. Good old Pierre is coming back from fishing with a friend when his friend throws a cigarette butt in a pile of leaves, carelessly. Anything can be a fire hazard. The butt starts a fire and this fire burns big and spreads all over. Rangers see the smoke and report it in to headquarters before hopping into their Chevrolet automobiles and heading out to fight the fire and prevent fire damage and burn injuries! Headquarters sends out 100 firefighters - thats a lot of Chevys! The fire spreads quickly. Pierre must reach his bedridden wife before their house goes up in flames! Containing all the characteristics of a melodrama, Just a Spark is a touchstone promotional video that decries the evils and consequences of carelessness (what causes forest fires) while espousing the benefits of Chevrolet.

The Safest Place

Length: 6 Minutes | Produced:1935

The Safest Place is an amusing vintage corporate promotional video sponsored by Chevrolet. Chevy maintains that the companys new 1935 models are the safest place any person could be. To illustrate this point, a man at home comically slips on a bar of soap in his bathtub and almost wipes out, and later tries to straighten a crooked picture on his wall and almost falls to his death. The point was, apparently, that in todays well-engineered Chevrolet (now a vintage Chevrolet), with their redesigned bodies and brakes, it was like driving a living room on wheels, only safer than your actual living room where danger lurked around every corner. Included also are lots of old funky driving videos and wild vintage cars. This humorously contradictory piece of propaganda then goes on to defeat its own message by giving safe driving tips, safe driving habits, and warning the audience to have their cars serviced regularly. We are even told that if we could eliminate the human element by inventing cars that drove themselves, wed be even safer. Is a 1930s old Chevrolet the safest place on Earth? Its up to the viewer to decide.
