Do you work here?

Some home truths.. if you’ve worked in Ad world and get digital then you’ll probably relate to most of this. Everyone knows they need to change, and it’s about bloody time they did, rather than making videos on old thinking vs new. Just change. Shared by Simon J.

My ‘Hardchorus’ for Rachael

Lovely bit of work from Puma, The Hardchorus. An unlikely choir sing their hearts out for valentines and match day! Nice and simple Facebook integration allows you to get the message to your loved one. Would have been nice to have seen the personalisation in a spoken name, rather than text on screen, but no [...]

NAB use Keith Loutit’s tilt shift photography

I posted on Keith Loutit’s ’tilt-shift photography’ technique a while back. First finding his work on Vimeo. Good to see NAB / ClemengerBBDO (Melbourne) using him and his technique in their latest ad ‘The Little Wonders’.

Three case studies worthy of your time…

Uniqlo – Uniqlock by Projector. Undeniably one of the most innovative and creative uses of the web to date. Evident that technology didn’t get in the way – only enhanced and took it further. Tate Tracks by Fallon London. My favourite art space, the Tate Modern, reaching a new audience through the intersection of art [...]

Honda’s problem playground case-study

Creative idea, channels and execution explained for the ‘Problem Playground’ campaign for Honda by Wieden + Kennedy London. Visit the campaign website here – which is slow, but worth the wait. Another good idea from the team at W+K – that is clearly delivered in all channels and brilliantly executed – beyond the special build! [...]

10 informational diagrams, by Mr Armano

Mr Armano, can I call you David? David [amongst other things] creates diagrams that simplify this quagmire of information that we try to make sense of on a daily basis. These ‘informational graphics’ make the complex simple and provide [me] a way to frame my thinking. The following diagrams aren’t in any particular order. They’ve [...]

Illuminate your dark side

Questionable title I know (perhaps you can suggest something better?). But I had to intro this great pic/ad with something. I wonder if Philips are the light bulb choice for Star Wars fans. Found on FFFFOUND.

The balloon race is on!

I’ve exhausted my ‘booster can’ already, mainly down to the fact that I didn’t know what I was doing… just clicked away on the arrows. Unsure when the booster gets replenished, but I need some speed.. got a long way to go to win this race. So far I’ve been across some odd blogs, mainly [...]

Internet Balloon Race, Upcoming Orange Campaign

Just found a balloon of a Racoon on Faris Yakob’s blog. Clicking through I discovered this upcoming campaign for Orange in the UK. Poke are responsible [again]. They keep turning out great work for Orange and this looks like another online masterpiece. What I’ve gleaned from a brief play is, its a balloon race across [...]

Good overcomes bad! & new media is the weapon.

Chris Brogan just highlighted this video post from Gary Vaynerchuk. The post in my mind captures what the Cluetrain predicted back in 1999, ‘the end of business as usual’. Today, our lives are transparent and on show through the social services that we choose to surround ourselves with, whether its flickr that tells it in [...]
