The First Worldwide Site Where Nothing Happens
Posted in: UncategorizedVocê se mata aí na agência para criar algo simples, barato, fácil de produzir, mas que ao mesmo tempo seja marcante, genial, “awards-killer”. Certo?
Só que aí vem o Kit Kat, da Nestlé, e coloca no ar o “The First Worldwide Site Where Nothing Happens”. Ou seja, o primeiro site do mundo em que nada acontece.
Marca o exato segundo em que você deve parar, largar tudo o que está fazendo e, como diz o slogan, “Have a Break”. Tudo a ver com Kit Kat.
A mensagem no rodapé ainda avisa: se você perceber algo acontecendo neste site, provavelmente é um defeito. Gênio. A criação é da JWT.
