Nova Pepsi chega ao Brasil

O Brasil é um dos primeiros países que recebe a novidade, apresentada no final de 2008 nos Estados Unidos. O novo conceito, baseado em uma energia mais positiva, foi trabalhado pela agência americana Arnell Group, renomada agência internacional de design, subsidiária do grupo Omnicom.

Assim, com visual limpo, a Pepsi transformou a onda branca de seu globo em um sorriso, que transmite a energia do jovem ou daqueles que possuem o “espírito jovem”.

Recebi agora, aqui em casa, uma latinha nova. Ao mesmo tempo que ela é modernosa, ela também remete a algo mais retrô. Gostei muito, apesar de não ser tão fã da bebida. Enfim, veja no topo deste post o filme que apresentou a nova identidade visual da marca, e também uma imagem da nova lata.

Branded Content: Toyota Prius e Good Magazine

priusmagazine.jpg

Tenho comentado bastante sobre colaborações inovadoras. Essas colaborações se estendem além de uma parceria harmoniosa entre duas ou mais marcas. Elas, as colaborações, também vão além com marcas e veículos de comunicação que, se bem trabalhadas, são instantaneamente batizadas de branded content, um tema que eu tenho bastante interesse.

Na semana passada, a Toyota apresentou mais um projeto inovador em parceria com Good Magazine, uma revista gringa que é uma espécie de Super Interessante, toda voltada pra galerinha cool. A parceria resultou em uma grande intervenção e patrocínio da montadora japonesa, que busca divulgar o seu carro Prius em toda plataforma da revista (online e offline). Um encarte no miolo da revista, contextualizado em torno da questão da sustentabilidade, um dos temais de mais abordados pela revista, é apenas uma das intervenções. Na realidade, toda sessão editorial de ecologia e sustentabilidade da revista será, daqui pra frente, patrocinada pelo Prius, da Toyota.

E não para por aí. Encaixaram um hotsite todo colorido e interativo com dicas sobre o meio ambiente e o envolvimento do homem com o universo green, dentro do portal da Good Magazine, que, por sinal, conta com outros banners também divulgando o automóvel. Uma colaboração e tanto ($$$), onde ambos sairão ganhando: marca e veículo.

‘Not Willing to Take a Flat Market, Looking for Deflation’


NEW YORK (AdAge.com) — Scott Hagedorn said he's still hopeful about the upfront market this year but finds himself using words such as "standoff" and "hostage exchange" when talking about it. "I don't want to be overly grim," he said. "We're not going to budge on the flexibility, because we know through our own proprietary research that the economy hasn't come back yet and people are as nervous as ever."
