Old Spice Muscle Music from Terry Crews on Vimeo.
The guys at Wieden + Kennedy have pulled out another cracker for Old Spice. This time they have taken advantage of Vimeo, and customised it to allow you to make up and record your own music by playing instruments controlled by your keyboard and Terry Crews muscles. With great POWER comes great drum solos, check it out for yourself at https://vimeo.com/47875656
Facebook yesterday shared the below infographic showing some great new global stats around Facebook usage as well as some insights for Facebook advertising.
If you have ever watched Edward Scissorhands, and like beer, then this is the ad for you. Andes Beer and the chaps at Del Campo Saatchi & Saatchi, Argentina, have done more great work again. Watch the short clip above for some Andes entertainment.
Below are two recent print ads we did at Ogilvy Cape Town for Volkswagen Genuine Parts. They also just so happened to gain a win at last months Creative Circle’s Ad of the Month awards. Enjoy

Really like this idea, but it’s bit of a poor case study video. Samsung and ad agency Cheil, Singapore, hired four improv artists to sing personalised songs via a live online video feed for almost 8 hours. People submitted their info via facebook and by answering a few questions, then 61 lucky people had a personalised song sung to them live. The campaign was used to help promote the already very successful GALAXY S III smartphone.
BBH, New York, and Axe produce another great TV ad, this time for Axe Hair. Enjoy
To raise awareness of Parkinson’s Disease for Shake it Up Australia Foundation, Ogilvy, Sydney, placed over 1000 wedges underneath coffee tables in Sydney so that the tables wobbled, re-enacting a common symptom of the disease – the shakes. Great work for a noble cause.
Great activation idea from Volvo Trucks. They got the World record-holding highliner Faith Dickey to walk across a line between two speeding trucks. The stunt filmed on an unopened highway in Croatia in cooperation with Hollywood stunt director Peter Pedrero.
Agency: Forsman & Bodenfors, Sweden
Great Infographic from Diffbot‘s new Page Classifier API. Some very interesting stats. Enjoy.
Another week, another talking vending machine, this time from Leo Burnett in London, for Kenco Millicano coffee. They set up a talking vending machine in Soho Square that cajoles, badgers and generally annoys passers-by into doing physical chores in exchange for free coffee. Done before, but I still like it.
