This new music video by OKGO is super amazing! Almost wet my pets after watching it.

Pool Worldwide did another great viral video for TomTom’s car navigation voices. Not sure if letting Ernie read maps is such a good idea though.

Whoever has done this entertaining video did a good job. It just goes to show that there is a little athlete inside all of us. Must be the work of an ad agency as there is just too much of a brand in it.

Contagion

Was pondering if i should watch the movie Contagion, i decide to see if i can find any trailers online. What i got was some nice viral video attention by taking the viral very literally. To promote the movie in Canada, they merged science and advertising by using actual bacteria in a billboard installation. Guess what happend..The result is an artistic interpretation of the spread of a virus as depicted in the movie. Guess it’s going to be a great movie.

3 guys, 44 days, 11 countries, 18 flights, 38 thousand miles, an exploding volcano, 2 cameras and almost a terabyte of footage… all to turn 3 ambitious linear concepts based on movement, learning and food ….into 3 beautiful and hopefully compelling short films…..

Gulp

After scoring big with smallest animation ever shot (Dot), the Nokia N8 campaign returns with the largest stop motion set ever built. Their world record attempt called Gulp was shot on a real Nokia N8 and is the beautiful story of a fisherman being gobbled up by a monstrous fish – and luckily being spat out again. The whole endeavor is pretty massive. Love the way it’s done….

Diesel island musicial

A funny and cool idea for diesel that touches on stupidity as the key attribute of the island.
This ad looks slick, and it is witty. However, the singers/models being completely out of sync is a flaw. I appreciate that is done deliberately, but personally I think it affects the overall quality of the execution.

Heineken handle bar moustache

Only two weeks after the launch of the Snakeskin Jacket commercial, another ad for Heineken Light pops up. Guess it’s the start of a whole new cool ad series.

The new spot has got the same style and sense of humour as Snakeskin Jacket, but is this time based around an artistic moustache. I like this intelligent humor approach more and more. Maybe one could pull this one off when trying to pick some chicks up.

Sprite revolution

Sprite believes that everyone has a refreshing side…even the world’s toughest dictators. Kind of unexpected from a brand which has gone quiet for a while.
