Belgian comic duo Circoripopolo launched about a one and a half year ago the silent short film ‘Circoripopolo Goes Airtistique‘. The two virtual comedians use some fascinating javascript magic to scale your browser window. I find it beautiful how they synched everything together.
Sit back and watch what the two guys from Belgium do to your browser. Don’t touch your mouse until the show is over! (Source: X-PRIME)
As this is my first post on here I thought I’d start with one of my personal all time favourites.
42 Below is a vodka producing company from New Zealand. The owner, Geoff Ross, started brewing vodka from his garage and managed to turn the company into a world wide success. They are now owned by Bacardi, who spend NZ$138 million on buying the company.
The company shot to fame thanks to its effective marketing. With hardly a budget at all they managed to grab the attention with some very cheeky and controversial advertising. With some very simple photo and video editing tools they managed to create adverts which grab the attention immediately. Their adverts almost look like as if they are user generated, which makes it very easy for people to create spoof adverts and thus further enhancing the power of the brand.
The crazy Dutch try to improve the world record at Domino Day each year. But last attempt failed with ‘only’ 3.671.465 stones that fell.
This old skool Philips viral commercial tapped into the Domino Day phenomenon with a simple but cool viral commercial.
Do you remember when Blaupunkt was one of the leading car audio brands? 19 years ago I got my drivers license and bought a very old VW Golf (1200 Euros) with a Blaupunkt car stereo in it. It’s like the Blaupunkt brand had vanished last ten years? You’ve noticed?
But with a new strategy and a new approach Blaupunkt seems on it’s way back. Blaupunkt is targeting screenagers and revitalizing it’s brand by sponsoring MTV’s Pimp My Ride. 2 Years ago Blaupunkt launched it’s viral commercial Pimp My Ride. It became a great success and Blaupunkt broadcasted this commercial at MTV TV Stations in several countries.
I think this is one of the smartest, cheapest and best viral commercials I have seen in years. Again proving that cheap but very compelling viral internet commercials can easily become weapons of mass affection and spice up dusty brands. I you have seen the commercial, show us your thoughts!
An old skool and trend setting viral webisode by Reebok. See how ‘Office Linebacker’ Terrible Terry Tate demolishes many co-workers. This viral is a collector’s item.
This great webisode also contains Terry Tate Vacation, Sensitivity Training and Draft Day.
We have seen many Beer brands launch viral internet commercials. This old skool Tuborg Beer commercial might get recognized by many male internet users?
Since the Online Publishers Association Study learned us that many male internet users are watching online videos and viral commercials daily or weekly, I expect more beer brands will target Men (18- 34 years) with viral internet commercials coming years. Do you feel the same?
Condom brands have great opportunties to go viral. What about this hilaric Trojan Games concept? Also this ZaZoo Condoms viral almost made me pee my panty.
Will you think twice about ‘having kids’ if you have seen this viral commercial? Or would you ‘glue’ to Trojan or ZaZoo condoms for just another while?
That viral commercials can be weapons of mass affection is proved by Pacific Bell with their series of viral internet commercials. The commercials are about very frustrated neighbours, that freak out while sharing the same cable line, when going online. What happens next at Laurel Lane is a must see…
Pacific Bell also launched ‘Log Off-Why Cable Sucks’. Do you remember that feeling?
Have you seen this viral commercial of Soesman Language? Well, let’s just say that Language Institutes have great viral opportunties. Look at this hilaric Berlitz viral ‘starring’ the German Coast Guard. Luckily Germany’s coast is not that long 
How a small local company can get global attention? Look at this old skool viral commercial, created by Y&R for Soesman Language Training- a small local Dutch company. It’s a very low cost commercial production wise. But it’s clever, witty and hilarious.
