Videos 11 June

A clear winner in the product videos this week is from BMW; it’s a little of a surprise, as it’s documentary style, talking about the inspiration behind the new BMW GINA Light Visionary Model. It’s sitting at number 8 on the list, the sole representative in the chart.

Trends in the rest of the videos include […]

The winner, in all it’s stop-motion glory, is Tribe by Matt B from London. Clear idea and […]

It shows Ralph Gilles, their VP design and Speciality vehicles, discussing his inspirations. He’s looking for you to share your inspirations, ‘Where Do You […]

Fila Film

The idea
I like this, the film is fun and full of puns when you know the subject is trainers. (language and violence probably not suitable for minors) Yes, I gave away the twist, but you can groan at the script more that way!

Gas Store TV contest

The Idea
I never bought gas in the US and have not bought petrol here in the UK for at least 2 years, maybe longer, so I had no idea that anything like this exists. There a Gas Station TV station! Putting TV at the pumps and in-store, they deliver programming and advertisements to […]

Lipton White Tea brings you the winner of their Free Your Y contest. It was all about showing off your ‘youthful spirit’ through dance moves or acrobatics or something like that. The winner got $25k.

Mini Ban Boredom

Mini are doing a lovely little cinema promotion at the moment, where they bring you some short film before the main feature, framed front and back with big Mini ads. Procrastination is one of the ones I’ve seen a few times.

Videos 26 May

It’s not a product video but it’s number 1 on the list for views last week and I love it. It’s the video for Pork and Beans, the new song from Wheezer. Showing an understanding of how to create buzz and commentary on the web that many brands can learn from, the video […]

Add to a film and meet Michael Moore

The Idea

They’ve started off with a film clip, setting up a mystery and invite you to contribute 1 minute chapters to the story. After each round, the submissions are voted on by you, the winning clip becoming […]
