Stop-Motion Animated Bollywood Campaign Is…

Here’s a weird one: are you aware that Frooti is India’s most popular mango-flavored drink — and that it recently rebranded?

Most importantly, are you aware that Sagmeister & Walsh collaborated with agency SpecialGuest, photographer Henry Hargreaves, “artist collective” 1st Avenue Machine, and the animators at Stoopid Buddies Stoodios to create this new, bizarre stop-motion ad?

That was a no.

The release tells us that the project is unique in that Indian audiences rarely see stop-motion animation in ads, especially those starring “King of Bollywood” mega-millionaire Shah Rukh Khan. You won’t see this one on American TV, either.

ECD Aaron Duffy of SpecialGuest (who Business Insider recently called the most creative guy in advertising under the age of 30) ran the project along with Sagmeister & Walsh partner Jessica Walsh and director Mark Reisbig of 1st Avenue Machine.

Here’s a GIF for your troubles:

Vice's Takeover of HBO Continues


Vice is expanding its relationship with HBO to include a daily half-hour TV newscast and a Vice channel on the network’s upcoming direct-to-consumer streaming video service, HBO Now.

The service, which will cost $14.99 per month, is HBO’s attempt to reach younger audiences who are not cable subscribers. Vice CEO Shane Smith suggested in a statement that he’d realized ambitious journalism was more than the company’s original scrappy, DIY ethos could support on its own:

I think the first thing, perhaps the hardest thing, I learned about journalism over the past 20 years is that maintaining any type of independence, any type of freedom, is difficult as you scale up. This deal, simply put, allows Vice the freedom to go after any story, anywhere we find it and to do so with complete independence. This deal is a tremendous gift and a tremendous opportunity, and we at Vice realize this.

As AMC Says Goodbye to 'Mad Men,' It Says Hello to Millennials


Before Don Draper and his associates at Sterling Cooper ever graced AMC’s Sunday nights, the network’s biggest coups were acquiring good movie packages on decent terms.

After the debut of “Mad Men” in June 2007, AMC was able to transform itself from a warehouse for classic movies into a destination for high-concept, award-winning shows, and as a result, a must-buy network for advertisers.

But now “Mad Men” is embarking on its final seven episodes, starting April 5, just as AMC marches into this year’s upfront negotiations with advertisers.

Deutsch NY Imagines Fairytale Wedding for PNC

Deutsch New York created a lavishly-produced spot for PNC Bank, launching a new campaign entitled “Know.”

The 90-second ad depicts a father imagining his daughter’s dream wedding, followed by the message, “Know you can save today, for what’s important tomorrow.” While the spot certainly looks good — much of it is devoted to the over-the-top wedding, brought to life by Deutsch and production company Interrogate, utilizing a mix of live action and visual effects courtesy of The Mill — it’s certainly not without its flaws. A father dreaming of his daughter’s wedding day as the epitome of important moments to save for (and not, say, worrying about the rising cost of tuition) could be seen as a bit out of touch with the times. Beyond that, there’s little (if anything) to differentiate PNC in the ad, and the bank isn’t mentioned until small text pops up at the end of the lengthy ad, informing viewers of programs that can help them save for the future. Still, Deutsch New York and PNC hope the emotional tone of the ad strikes a chord with parents.

“It’s every father’s dream to give his daughter everything she has ever imagined, and more. And in our new campaign, ‘Know,’ we use emotional storytelling to highlight how PNC helps insight happen through the tools, guidance and experiences we offer,”  Deborah Van Valkenburgh, senior vice president of strategic brand management, corporate marketing, at PNC Bank, told Adweek.

BBDO Induces Mass Gyrations for Mountain Dew Kickstart

BBDO has unveiled the next installment of its ongoing campaign for Mountain Dew’s energy drink line, Kickstart.

Here, the three lads we first met earlier this year during the Super Bowl take their odd dance party and cans of Kickstart out of the basement and onto the streets, where their spastic movements prove to be rather contagious for everyone in the “Neighborhood.”

From robe-sporting weirdos and a raccoon to a fireman and a rather nimble “suit,” the members of our dancing fools’ neighborhood seem just as as odd as their own moves.

While the ad does drag on a bit, viewers can click through random hotspots on the video itself to check out :15 mini-ads that are focused on specific characters in the ‘hood.

Now that we’ve seen the trio busting a move, we’ll just have to wait for the inevitable crossover ad with Oklahoma City Thunder star and fellow Kickstart pitchman Russell Westbrook.

Human Emotions Typography

La créative française Beatrix Gevigney est derrière le projet « Human Type » : une série de portraits qui relie une émotion à un caractère typographique Helvetica, où chaque lettre représente un sentiment qui peut se lire sur le visage du modèle. Elle s’est appuyée sur une citation de Victor Hugo : « La forme, c’est le fond qui remonte à la surface ».

Marshall’s Launches Digital, Creative Review

marshalls

Marshall’s, the “off-price” retailer that consolidated its creative work with Austin’s GSD&M by awarding the agency digital AOR status back in 2011 (the shop first won the business in 2008 and Hill Holliday held the digital account), will look for a new lead agency.

GSD&M confirmed to us that, as AdAge reported this morning, it will not be participating in the pending review.

From the agency:

“We have enjoyed a very successful relationship with the Marshalls’ team over the past seven years. We are proud of the work we accomplished together, we wish them the best and continued success.”

A client spokesperson explained the decision to AdAge as such:

“As the retail and media landscape continue to evolve, we are looking for a fresh perspective on our brand. We greatly appreciate the contribution GSD&M has made to our marketing efforts over the last several years.”

No word on which agencies will compete for the business; here’s “Taking It to the Streets,” a 2012 campaign created by GSD&M.

Translation Launches March Madness Effort for NBA

Translation launched a campaign for the NBA capitalizing on the popularity of March Madness and reminding hoops fans that “The Dance Never Ends” and the NBA Playoffs are right around the corner on April 18th.

In a series of 15-second spots, Translation visualizes the NCAA/NBA connection by transporting NBA stars back to their college years. Russell Westbrook gets the treatment in the ad above, slamming down a dunk and then morphing into a bear wearing a UCLA Bruins jersey. The same basic approach is applied to game footage of other stars, including Dwyane Wade, James Harden, Stephen Curry and Kyle Lowry. It’s a clever way to make the connection to the excitement of March Madness and get fans stoked for the upcoming NBA Playoff, as well as a reminder that some of the best players in the NCAA will be NBA stars soon enough (and finally getting a big payday).

Pro Stars Morph Back to College Selves in NBA's Striking March Madness Ads

The NBA is putting a whole new spin on throwback jerseys.

The professional basketball league has launched its first-ever campaign around NCAA March Madness by employing a neat visual trick—showing NBA stars with overlaid animations of the college uniforms from their NCAA days.

Stephen Curry, James Harden, Al Horford, Kyle Lowry, Paul Pierce, Dwyane Wade and Russell Westbrook all star in 15-second ads from Translation, voiced by the indomitable Dick Vitale.

It’s not just the clothes that change. Westbrook, presently of the Oklahoma City Thunder and formerly of the UCLA Bruins, transforms into a bear wearing a pair of the player’s infamous red glasses. Even the YouTube video descriptions are packed with Vitale slang, Easter eggs for the hardcore zealots.

Running under the tagline “The dance never ends,” it’s a nice simple concept, illustrating that some of the college stars that viewers are cheering on now will be in the NBA soon enough—and that it’s OK to enjoy both leagues.

The spots don’t show the pros giving up wads of cash as they return to the NCAA, though.

Air Max Day in Metro Station

Pour célébrer son Air Max Day 2015, le 26 mars, Nike a décidé de s’installer dans les rames du métro parisien. La station fantôme, située entre République et Strasbourg-Saint-Denis sur la ligne 9 direction Pont de Sèvres, accueille ainsi une installation lumineuse étonnante constituée de bulles d’air géantes rouges et bleus, ainsi qu’un logo scintillant.

E se as pessoas saíssem de uma festa do mesmo jeito que saem do Facebook?

fb

Como seria se as pessoas fossem embora de uma festa do mesmo jeito que costumam sair do Facebook? A resposta a esta questão está no vídeo If People Left Parties Like They Leave Facebook, do College Humor.

fb

A esquete – em inglês, sem legendas – mostra todo o escândalo que as pessoas que deixam a rede social costumam fazer, dizendo que não aguentam mais os amigos e suas postagens. No caso da festa, são as conversas que incomodam o protagonista, que garante que tudo aquilo é uma enorme perda de tempo e que prefere fazer coisas mais construtivas.

É claro que ele sai da festa Facebook mas avisa todo mundo que está indo para a festa do outro lado da rua – referindo-se ao Twitter.

De repente, voltei no tempo para me lembrar de quantas pessoas saíram do Orkut desse jeito. Até que não sobrou ninguém e quem ficou por último teve de apagar a luz.

TouchTone, um jogo para iPhone baseado nas revelações de Edward Snowden

TouchTone-dst

Em TouchTone você é um analista da NSA, ou seja, aquele que espia os outros. Sua missão se alterna entre resolver quebra-cabeças e descriptografar emails suspeitos, de pessoas que podem ameaçar a segurança nacional.

Os quebra-cabeças geométricos são divertidos, mas o que é mais interessante e viciante ainda são as informações entre eles. Você precisará quebrar códigos, analisar suspeitos e classificar mensagens – se estas são ou não assuntos de segurança nacional. 

TouchTone-Trailer

O game é bastante atual e trata de um assunto polêmico de forma inteligente. O personagem central, um engenheiro americano muçulmano, se desdobra entre interceptações de emails ao longo do jogo. Outro ponto positivo é o visual minimalista, que une um clima hacker de tela preta com aspecto de game retrô.

É inevitável sentir aquela ambiguidade sobre o que vigiar significa tanto para a segurança de um país quanto para a privacidade dos cidadãos.

TouchTone-app

TouchTone foi criado pela dupla Mikengreg, também conhecida pelos games Gasketball e Solipskier. O desenvolvimento começou em 2012, mas os criadores estavam com dificuldades de ir além de um simples jogo de quebra-cabeça. O insight veio depois das últimas revelações de Edward Snowden sobre o programa de vigilância PRISM.

TouchTone está disponível para iPhone por $2.99.

Absolut terá ‘impressora de drinks’ em bar de SP

boozebox-capa

Pedir um drink é sempre uma surpresa. Dependendo da mão do bartender, vem mais ou menos álcool, mais ou menos açúcar, e assim vai. Algo bem comum para um processo artesanal, mas e se você pudesse dar instruções mais precisas sobre o quanto do quê você quer?

Essa é a ideia da Boozebox, uma startup que criou uma máquina homônima, que praticamente ‘imprime’ drinks exatamente de acordo com o gosto do freguês. Quer repetir um drink igualzinho? Basta pedir a mesma receita, e a mistura é colocada no copo bem na sua frente.

Pernod Ricard Brasil

A Absolut gostou da ideia e está estreando o projeto com um piloto no bar Companhia da Cerveja, na Vila Madalena, em SP. O cuidado principal da marca é não dispensar o barman, que acompanhará os clientes no processo, auxiliando na finalização e na entrega do drink. Os clientes terão à disposição uma variedade de mais de 200 drinks, que incluem misturas com vodca, whisky, rum e cachaça.

A interação com a Boozebox é opcional, mas para os donos do estabelecimento, o ganho principal é com a eficiência no atendimento – já que os drinks são preparados mais rapidamente – e com a consistência dos pedidos dos clientes, que podem selecionar a intensidade de cada drink e quanto de açúcar desejam incluir. Um bônus é a economia – a Boozebox chega a economizar 15% de produtos ao evitar o desperdício.
