Tipp-Ex: Bear vs hunter

September 3, 2010 by admin

Buzzman, France, have released the above fantastic interactive YouTube video (just play it to go to the custom page). The custom YouTube page allows you to create your own ending as to how the hunter interacts with the bear. So for they have recorded 50 video responses, if you want some fun try out some of the flowing responses: dances with, sings with, talks to, hugs, draws, fights, doesn’t shoot, is shot by, loves, kisses, and fucks. The campaign is for Tipp-Ex and has been launched to coincide with the back to school period.

Mini: Airport Clubman

Mini: Airport Clubman

A great idea for the Mini Clubman from Art director Maximilian Pinegger and copywriter Justin Salice-Stephan, two 24-year-old’s from Miami Ad School. One of the main selling points for the Mini Clubman is that it has 32.8 cubic feet of cargo space with the rear seats down, so putting it next to an airport luggage carousel seems wonderfully clever.

I didn’t even realise that earlier yesterday Apple announced the new iPod nano touch, and iPod Touch! Above is the new iPod nano advert, the new nano is fully multi touch operated, has a built in FM radio, and will no doubt be incredible, store a billion songs and movies, plus make you breakfast. The new iPod touch does the same but includes video calling over WiFi, HD video recording, plus it will take you for walks when you need some exercise, and make you breakfast, lunch, and supper, everyday, for life! The catchy music for the new iPod nano touch ad above is "Short Skirt, Long Jacket" by Cake. For more details go to http://www.apple.com

Arcade Fire: The Wilderness Downtown / HTML5 Chrome Experiment

Google Chrome has been my default web browser for some time now and this digital campaign by Milk+Koblin, showcases Chrome’s ability to run HTML5. The campaign is an interactive video directed by Chris Milk, and shows off some of the new features this web hypertext standard can provide such as custom rendered google maps, video, 3D animation, and canvassing amongst other features. The site is called “The Wilderness Downtown” and plays a personalised video featuring Arcade Fire’s song “We Used To Wait”. During the video you get to make your own personalised card that will be printed out with paper that supposedly contain tree seeds and then handed out to people at Arcade fires upcoming music tour. If you plant the card a tree will grow!. Make sure you download Google Chrome here to see it for yourself, its worth it. URL: thewildernessdowntown.com

Jeremy Irons stars as the narrator in this mockumentary for a Non-profit organisation called Heal The Bay. The campaign was made by DDB, Los Angeles, and tracks the journey of a plastic bag from LA to the Pacific Ocean. The campaign has been made to try help urge the residents of California to pass the AB 1998 act that would make it illegal to give away single use plastic bags at stores across the state. Instead people would have a choice of using recyclable bags, or paying a small fee to purchase a single use plastic bag, therefore helping cut plastic bag pollution and the associated clean up costs.

Tropitone: NIE-BLANKES

Tropitone: NIE-BLANKES

I was going to write about this nice cinema ad for Orange from Jack Black, but as I detest Orange (They tried to get me to pay a £700 phone bill that was an error, then threatened to sue me, then cut me off after 6 years of loyal patronage) I instead thought I would take the time to write about this somewhat controversial new campaign for Tropitone bronzer. The copy in English translates as “NON-WHITES” and harks back to apartheid days in South Africa, Tropitone then spray painted their logo with an ad for sunless bronzer next to the benches on the pavement, suggesting that once you use the product you will no longer have white skin! Interesting approach from Johannesburg ad agency morrisjones. Thoughts ?

Ogilvy, London, have produced this nice simple overview on the evolution of advertising. The 3 minute clip shows the transition of advertising from a one way message platform, to evolving into a mobile two way communication industry. It reminds me a lot of this fantastic Nokia commercial that was shot in 2007 and looks at the different screens we have used to consume information over the years. The future is mobile.

Lovely spot for the new VW Golf, from Try, Oslo. The story tell of a man who suspects his wife is up to no good, however the new VW Golf proves to be a huge distraction.
