GSD&M Convinces Southwest Airlines to Show Us Its Pearly Whites

Today Austin’s GSD&M released a sunny new spot for client Southwest Airlines in order to promote its just-announced vacation destinations.

The “just got our passport” theme stems from the fact that Southwest will begin flying to spots outside the continental U.S. for the first time on its more-than-40-year history on July 1st.

The agency enlisted award-winning photographer Martin Schoeller, a celebrity portraitist whose subjects include various film stars and regular guys with wives and kids, to direct the spot–hence its focus on confessional close-ups of the people who have a good time helping you get to where you’re going.

Selfie e Hashtag ganham verbetes no dicionário Merriam-Webster

A linguagem é algo que evolui com o tempo, e dicionários não podem deixar que novas palavras passem despercebidas e mal explicadas. Na atualização deste ano do Merriam-Webster, entre os 150 novos verbetes adicionados estão as palavras Selfie e Hashtag, que segundo a própria publicação, refletem a crescente influência da tecnologia no nosso cotidiano.

Selfie: uma imagem de alguém, feita por ela mesma, usando uma câmera digital, feita espeficicamente para postar em redes sociais”

Outras expressões, como crowdfunding (traduzida como ‘financiamento coletivo’), big data, gamification, hot spot, paywall e unfriend também irão estrear no dicionário norte-americano neste ano. “Selfie e hashtag referem-se aos modos como nós nos comunicamos e compartilhamos informações como indivíduos. Palavras como crowdfunding, gamification e big data mostram como a internet já alterou o mundo dos negócios de forma muito profunda”, comenta Peter Sokolowski, editor do Merriam-Webster.

A dicionarização de palavras desse tipo também facilita a vida dos repórteres, que podem aos poucos deixar de colocar apostos que explicam os termos. Grosso modo, podemos dizer que algumas buzzwords acabaram se ‘graduando’ e se transformaram em expressões moderninhas e dicionarizadas.

Quem se interessar pode conferir algumas das outras palavras adicionadas ao Merriam-Webster em matéria na Time.

72andSunny Quotes Pop Culture for Samsung’s New, Curvy TV

72andSunny mined memorable moments in film, TV, and the Internet for their new campaign unveiling Samsung’s Curved UHD TV, called “The Curve Changes Everything.”

The new broadcast spot debuted last night during primetime programing including AMC’s Mad Men,  NBC’s Women of SNL, and the season finale of Fox’s execrable Family Guy, to name a few. The 60-second “The Curve Changes Everything,” mines such sources as Clueless, Jurassic ParkGravity and that screaming goat you saw on YouTube to stitch together “not only excitement for the curve and the experience, but how the curve impacts different family scenarios and living room environments.” 72andSunny worked with production company Caviar, director Rian Johnson (Looper, a couple of great episodes of Breaking Bad) and Oscar-winning cinematographer Claudio Miranda (Life of Pi, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button) to bring the spot to life.

“The Samsung Curved TV is just a beautiful object,” said Rian Johnson. “Beyond the quality of the picture, the industrial design of the TV – with its subtle curve – is really stunning when you see it up close in person. We were tasked with finding ways to show off the curve, but you really just need to point a camera at the TV and it pops off the screen. It was a pleasure to shoot.”

In addition to broadcast, the campaign also features print, digital and out of home (OOH) components. “The Curve Changes Everything” will continue to run on major networks, cable and online. Stick around for credits after the jump. continued…
