Kohl’s Adds Emotional Brand Spots to Holiday Mix


Kohl’s is adding emotional broadcast spots to its holiday mix, in a bid to stand out from the promotional maelstrom of the season.

A year ago, the retailer’s entire campaign, from Interpublic Group of Cos.’ McCann Erickson, New York, featured specific messaging about savings, sales and Kohl’s Cash — coupons earned by spending certain amounts at the retailer — in addition to featuring specific products. Not so this year. A new ad breaking Monday features a couple decorating their elderly neighbor’s apartment for the holidays while she’s out — no mention of sales or Kohl’s Cash to be seen. Set to a sedate cover of Bob Dylan’s “Forever Young,” it tugs at the heartstrings.

Michelle Gass, Kohl’s chief customer officer, said that last year a true brand spot was “missing from the mix. We didn’t have, as part of our advertising, what I would call a pure brand spot that really spoke to the insights and spirit of the holiday and spoke to our emotional connection [with consumers] and values.”

Really Heavy Metal: GE to Host a Robot Band Concert in New York


GE’s Brilliant Machines are back, and this time, they’ll be performing live in New York’s Union Square next week. Since launch, the advertiser’s campaign, out of BBDO New York, has put the spotlight on famous A.I.’s, including one spot that showed iconic robots from pop culture past come together at a convention and a more recent effort in which GE’s intelligent tech saves Star Trek’s Enterprise. But now, the advertiser is bringing consumers face to face with the real thing with a live performance from the robot band Compressorhead on Tuesday, Nov. 12.

The German outfit features three five-foot-tall robots: drummer Stickboy, bassist Bones and lead/rhythm Fingers. Created from scrap metal, the humanoids move with the help of electro-pneumatics and play music via Midi.

The performance will last from 1:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. and throughout, GE will provide charging stations and WiFi for the public, who are free to attend. A livestream feed of the concert will also run on Spotify.

Study: Booze Industry Breaks its Own Underage Ad Rules


The alcohol industry has violated its own rules aimed at keeping booze ads away from under-age viewers, government and university researchers allege in a new report.

Beer and liquor marketers have since 2003 pledged to show ads only on TV programs, magazines and web sites where adult viewers dominate the audience. The current standard prohibits ads when under-21 audience exceeds 28.4%. But in 25 of the nation’s largest TV markets, almost one in four alcohol ads violated the voluntary standards, according to researchers from the Center on Alcohol Marketing and Youth at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, known as CAMY, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The “results of this evaluation suggest that the alcohol industry has not consistently met its 2003 self-regulatory standards,” according to the study, which is published in CDC’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report for Nov. 8.

Roubo de bebês e assaltos em pegadinhas publicitárias

Já discutimos bastante aqui no B9 sobre o limite das pegadinhas publicitárias, pois muito tem sido feito recentemente em nome de surpreender, assustar e até mesmo constranger as pessoas para, posteriormente, viralizar na internet. Se são ações reais ou inventadas, isso é outra discussão.

A St. John resolveu tirar sarro desses absurdos da publicidade, e em três vídeos diferentes parodiam as ideias de jerico das agências. Tem roubo de bebês, sequestros e assaltos, sempre pensando no conceito de “proporcionar aos consumidores uma experiência inesquecível”.

O problema é que, pelos comentários no YouTube, muita gente está acreditando nessas ações. Provavelmente é essa a intenção.

Rio 2016: Revelados os pictogramas dos Jogos Olímpicos

O Comitê Organizador revelou hoje os pictogramas que serão utilizados nos Jogos Olímpicos Rio 2016. São 64 no total, cada um identificando um esporte, sendo 41 da Olimpíada e 23 da Paralimpíada.

Os ícones seguem a tipografia dos Jogos, revelada no ano passado, mantendo o estilo com linhas de traço único, inspiradas por marcos do Rio de Janeiro. A criação é do estúdio Dalton Maag.

O uso destes símbolos, os chamados pictos, datam de 1948, nas Olimpíadas de Londres, e foram evoluindo até as formas marcantes criadas atualmente. Confira o conjunto que será utilizado no Rio em detalhes no site do evento: rio2016.com/pictos
