Driving While on the Phone

The following is a graphic public service film depicting the ravages of using cell phones while driving.  Although created and aired only in the United Kingdom, it’s message is relevant everywhere.  Surely this wont be aired in it’s entirety on US television due to the gruesome nature of the content but thanks to the internet [...]

Tubed – 3D Video

Ever since seeing the U2 Concert Film at Sundance, I’ve rekindled my affection for 3D… which is why I am particularly I’m excited that YouTube added the ability to support 3D video content.  Hopefully as their content library grows we will get to see videos that really take advantage of the technology like these YouTube [...]

I <3 Puppies

A San Francisco couple set up a live video feed to watch over their dog’s six Shiba Inu puppies… and the rest is history (or rather, workplace distraction). 
If only they could pipe in puppy breath… bestill my puppy-loving heart.

The Sticky Note Experiments

To perk up your Monday…

EepyBird Production (the guys who started the Diet Coke & Mentos campaign) have now created The Sticky Note Experiments for OfficeMax to support their tagline ”Life is beautiful.  Work can be, too.”  And I thought I was being creative when I temporarily hemmed my pants with binder clips!

haahhahaa

Pretty much every brand executive has heard of YouTube.  Most don’t really understand how it plays out in the cultural landscape but have read enough to understand that they should… and that their jobs might actually depend on that understanding.  But I digress…
One fun YouTube execution that I just found is for the promotion of Batman: The Dark Knight in the Brazilian market.  [...]

Fire In The Sky

There is this random video I stumbled over on MySpace (don’t judge me… it’s part of my job) that I just cant get out of my mind.  It’s of these paper lanterns being lit and set free to float away.  Now, I don’t know if this video is doctored or not… my guess is that [...]

Bollywood

I want to hate this video… I really do.  But I don’t. 
Folk rocker Devendra Banhart casted his girlfriend Natalie Portman in the music video for his new single, “Carmensita.”  The video is Bollywood-esque with silly special effects and cheeky subtitles.  Prince of Hraminah (a.k.a. Devendra) must save Princess Carminsita Saplingita (a.k.a. Portman) with his “rebellious beard”, no less, from Lord Rajah [...]

Ants In Your Pants

Viral video builds are a trend that don’t seem to want to die.  Not all of them are “cool” per se but they are usually at least interesting… and I typically like “interesting”. 
Now this one, on the otherhand, is totally rad!  I love this guy… whoever he is… and I want to be just like him [...]

Where Will Life Take You?

Louis Vuitton, the quintessential luxury house announced that it is launching its first ever on-screen corporate campaign with the launch of a 90-second spot for Louis Vuitton to appear on television and in movie theaters starting Feb. 15 in some 15 countries.
Shot in France, Spain, India and Japan, the travel-themed ad entitled, ‘Where will life [...]

Good Bless America

I am not one to talk about politics — and even less likely to push my political beliefs onto another person BUT Obama gives me chills and frankly makes me feel pretty excited to be an American.  And since it wouldn’t be America without celebrity generated pop-culture propaganda…
