goodness Mfg. Mocks ‘Sillycon Valley’ for Toshiba
Posted in: Uncategorizedgoodness Mfg. takes on Silicon Valley in a new spot for Toshiba, presenting their Encore 2 as “the one device that quiets the hype.”
In the animated, 30-second “Sillycon Valley,” goodness Mfg. presents a cartoonish tech world gone overboard, complete with coffee drones, 5D printing and “smart scissors.” While disparaging tech to sell a tablet may be a questionable strategy, and “Sillycon Valley” may go a bit too far into the ridiculous at times to seem like an effective satire of Silicon Valley tech hype, the tagline at least wraps things up nicely. Still, it’s hard to imagine “Sillycon Valley” persuading anyone to go buy the Encore 2.
The agency takes a different approach with “Unleash Yourself,” this time showing the tablet’s versatility at a wide range of tasks while highlighting its portability.

Stick around for “Unleash Yourself,” along with credits, after the jump. (more…)
