Zulu Alpha Kilo Launches New App to Improve Agency Efficiency


Toronto-based Zulu Alpha Kilo has just launched a new global app designed to improve agency efficiency.

The app addresses a very important issue for a lot of agencies: creative directors can be hell to track down for meetings, reviews, or critical approvals. So Zulu Alpha Kilo designed “Find My CD,” which utilizes GPS tracking technology which allows agencies to keep an eye on their creative director’s whereabouts at all times. To accomplish this, the app utilizes proprietary chip technology “inserted just beneath the creative director’s skin” — which Zulu Alpha Kilo stresses is “a very safe, very technical procedure.” The chip then allows agencies to track their creative director’s every move, leading to a drastic increase in efficiency.

“Between client presentations, casting sessions and internal creative reviews, creative directors are hard to pin down,” said Mike Sutton, president, Zulu Alpha Kilo. “Now they’re just a pin on a map.” Stick around for credits after the jump. continued…

Zulu Alpha Kilo’s ‘Proof of Santa’ App Raises Money for Make-A-Wish Canada

If you’re looking for ways to “prove” to your young one that Santa is real, you should check out Zulu Alpha Kilo’s free “Kringl” app.

The app allows parents to create their own personal Christmas video scenes, which they can then share on YouTube, Facebook or Twitter. Users begin by selecting one of five Santa vignettes, then film a chosen location, and finally insert Santa, adjusting for lighting and size so that he fits seamlessly into the scene. They can then show their children Santa’s magical visit, dispelling any doubts the kids may feel about Saint Nick’s existence. The free app also collects donations for Make-A-Wish Canada, for those in the giving spirit. It’s a cute idea, and hopefully people will be pleased enough with the app that they’ll feel compelled to donate.

Check out the above video to see a preview of the app in action, along with a variety of adorable responses. Credits after the jump.  continued…
