CHICAGO (AdAge.com) — In a bold bid to double its sales by 2012, New Balance is tripling ad spending behind a push that appeals to runners by reminding them how much they occasionally hate running.
Just today I received a comment on my blog from the very people who were behind the amazing Artificial Dummies I posted a while ago. They’re the great minds of TODO, and the heads up was from their very own Andrea.
TODO is, in their own words, an interaction and media design agency. Stablished in Italy, this group has a whole lot going for them. Kickass interactive works, a kickass website, a kickass video collection and even better, an amazing level of creativity.
At the risk of being a bit repetitive, the video I left you above is an explanation of the almighty Artificial Dummies. Beautiful music and a subtle explanation on the little creatures.
Still I urge you to check out their websites. Their work is really a pleasure to watch and imagine.
Thanks a lot Andrea on the heads up! Much success!.
