Edelman U.S. President-CEO Mark Hass to Step Down


Edelman U.S. President and CEO Mark Hass is leaving the independent PR giant in July, the agency told Ad Age. New York lead and Edelman vet Russell Dubner will replace him.

Mr. Hass said the timing of his departure is tied to Edelman’s fiscal year, which ends in July, as well as the shop’s “succession plan.” “There’s an ongoing conversation here about who’s next in what spot,” he said.

Mr. Hass has been in the lead U.S. role for two years and prior to that he was president of Edelman China. Before joining Edelman five years ago, he served as CEO of Publicis Groupe PR shop MSLGroup. Earlier in his career, he started his own shop and worked as an editor at various local papers.

Hi – Dutch telecom provider: Ronnie Flex app demo

The unique aspect of this next generation music video is that all technical features of the smartphone are used. For instance, during the story you can choose between two different girls by swiping, pinching a hamburger smaller or bigger, blow away smoke through the microphone, look around 360 degrees, scratch a record and collect Easter eggs – that will give you access to exclusive content and prizes at the end of the video.

Quem precisa de carteira quando se tem um Power Suit?

A tecnologia wearable está com tudo, basta dar uma olhada no que rolou durante o SXSW. Entre tantas alternativas que não param de surgir, os alfaiates da australiana M.J. Bale fizeram uma parceria com o Heritage Bank e Visa para criar o Power Suit, um terno que conta com um chip de pagamento que substitui dinheiro e cartões de crédito. Afinal, quem precisa de carteira quando se tem um desses?

A criação do Power Suit partiu do princípio de que homens poderosos não carregam dinheiro (mas, cá entre nós, o outro extremo também é verdade). Então, com um chip de pagamento inserido no tecido – mais especificamente na manga do terno -, basta que o usuário aproxime o braço de um aparelho Visa payWave e pronto. O dinheiro sairá de uma conta pré-paga do Heritage Bank.

É claro que, pelo menos por enquanto, o produto tem uma edição limitada e é uma exclusividade para clientes vips da M.J. Bale e influenciadores, mas um deles será leiloado e o lucro será revertido para a 4 ASD Kids, entidade que ajuda crianças com autismo.

A criação é da Whybin\TBWA de Sydney e Eleven\PR.

Winner of Infiniti Account Will Have Chance to Rebuild a Brand


Ad executives working on automotive accounts like to speculate how they’d build an automotive brand from scratch. Well, this summer’s opportunity to virtually re-launch Infiniti is about as close as they’re going to get, said Allyson Witherspoon, Infiniti USA’s director of marketing, communications and media. She joined the Nashville, Tenn.-based luxury car maker in November after stints at Arnold, Amsterdam, and other agencies.

“If I were to put my former agency hat on, I would probably salivate…. You’re always trying to look at what are brands that you can help build, or rebuild, or help evolve. I think [Infiniti] is that,” said Ms. Wittherspoon last week at the New York International Auto Show.

But ad agencies chasing the global Infiniti account, long held by Omnicom Group’s TBWA Worldwide , will have their work cut out for them.

‘Ideas to Steal’ Lets Creatives Share Unused Ideas

Ideas to Steal LargeChances are you’ve felt the frustration of having a great idea never see the light of day, or, conversely, have faced days where any ideas seem hard to come by. Freelance digital creative directors Kalle Everland and Timo Klaarenbeek have created a dual solution in the site http://www.ideastosteal.today/.

The site lets creatives upload their unused ideas for others to steal. There’s only one stipulation: if you steal an idea, you have to credit whoever posted it and share the glory should the work come up for any awards. Using the site is pretty simple. Login with Facebook or set up an account with username and email, and a password will be sent to you. Then click on “Upload Idea” and load your video or image onto the site, adding a brief explanation and selecting a category. If you want to steal an idea, just go for it (and perhaps add a comment), while making sure to credit the person who posted it should the work get published. Check out the site for yourself; if you’re running low on inspiration, or have a drawer full of unused ideas you’d like to see get some love, it just might make your day.

Advertisers Go to Brand Camp With YouTube Stars


So you want to be a YouTube star?

The Google-owned video service put that question to seven brands who attended YouTube’s second-ever Brand Partner Program in March. Over three days at the company’s Los Angeles production facility YouTube Space LA, marketers from Ford, Visa, Samsung, Taco Bell, Anheuser-Busch InBev’s Shock Top brand, AT&T and Pantene received a crash course on making a name in the new Hollywood.

YouTube organized the boot camp to “treat advertisers like content creators,” said YouTube’s director of content strategy Jamie Byrne, who oversees the Brand Partner Program.

NYPD pede nas mídias sociais fotos fofas com policiais, recebe imagens de truculência

A polícia de Nova Iorque, conhecida pela sigla em inglês NYPD, tentou interagir com os munícipes pedindo que eles enviassem fotos suas com os policiais da cidade, usando a hashtag #myNYPD.

A princípio, as interações foram bonitinhas, com gente posando ao lado de policiais paramentados, na ânsia por alguns minutos de fama ao ter sua foto destacada no Facebook da corporação.

No entanto, não demorou muito para o feitiço virar contra o feiticeiro. Em pouco mais de uma hora após o convite, muitos usuários passaram a enviar fotos suas em companhia dos policiais, só que em situações nada agradáveis. Retratos de truculência e violência foram tirados dos ‘arquivos pessoais’, com cidadãos retratando a ~emoção~ de estarem ao lado de policiais. “Minha foto com a polícia de NY. Eles me fazendo uma massagem no pescoço”, diz esse tuíte.

O pessoal do Occupy Wall Street também se movimentou, trazendo um razoável arsenal de truculência policial.

Como as mídias são um fórum público, fica difícil calar as vozes que usaram a campanha como uma forma de protesto. Em resposta sobre o ricocheteio da iniciativa, o departamento de polícia de Nova Iorque esclareceu que “está criando novas formas de se comunicar efetivamente com a sua comunidade. O Twitter funciona como um fórum público e sem censura, que promove um diálogo aberto que é importante para a cidade”.

Segundo o Guardian, até a noite desta terça-feira já eram contabilizados mais de 70 mil tuítes a respeito da truculência da polícia de Nova Iorque, com fotos e mensagens que lembravam vítimas da corporação. Por isso é sempre bom tomar cuidado com o que você pergunta para a sua audiência nas mídias sociais.

Peça, e será atendido.
