Dean’s: Surprisingly mild

Dean’s Whisky is especially mild. Which is why it appeals not only to rugged guys. The advertisement’s unusually humorous, feminine look and feel are designed to arouse the interest of a new target group and raise awareness of Dean’s Whisky above and beyond its loyal customer base.

Nokia cria nova oportunidade para anunciantes

A Nokia está expandindo seu leque de serviços para de fomentar novas oportunidades de entretenimento e conteúdo aos seus clientes. E quem também ganha com isso são os anunciantes.

Conheci hoje um projeto interessante, que promete romper, mais uma vez, as barreiras entre o real e o virtual. Estou falando do serviço Nokia Point & Find, uma combinação de reconhecimento de imagem e tecnologia GPS (Algo muito semelhante ao Google Googles).

Desenvolvido em 2009, o Point & Find começou a ser disponível para download há pouco tempo.

Quando o usuário aponta a câmera de seus celulares para pôsteres e mobiliários urbanos, o aplicativo fornece vários conteúdos sobre o autor da peça. Pegando o exemplo de um pôster de filme, o celular com o aplicativo baixado passa a fornecer trailers, sinopses, fotos e informações adicionais sobre o filme.

Embora o site ofereça uma opção de download para other countries, é mais provável que a utilização do serviço seja mais compatível em regiões como Estados Unidos, Inglaterra e Alemanha (por enquanto!).

When a Reviewer Loves the Promo More Than the Show
