Twitflicks: Mini-Movies Based on Your Tweets
Crowd funding is pretty hot right now, but it doesn’t always work, even through the major social funding platforms. So, when Eddie Terstall (a famous Dutch film-maker) only managed to reach $2k of the $20k he teamed up with One Big Agency to try something just a little different… So they created Twitflicks. Mini-Movies that [...]

31. October 2011
You’ve probably seen an ad like this before… Say, the AXA Interactive Print Ad from late last year. Combining motion and sound with the background of a great print ad is still pretty rarely seen, but again, here is a great example of it working a treat, created by our friends at AlmapBBDO in Brazil. [...]

26. October 2011
Nike is doing something a little different with projection mapping for the new Jordan Melo M8 shoe, this time throwing in water, in fact the whole thing is projected onto water fountains, which perfectly complement the movement and desired effects to create something pretty special for your eyes… Sure, there isn’t any interactivity as we’ve [...]

25. October 2011
Ever wondered what some of those annoying checkout experiences online would actually be like in real life? Well, here is Google’s take on them.

25. October 2011
Yes. This is a little random. A slight waste of time. But if you are like me, and love the mix of various technologies that creates “Beeri” then you’ll appreciate the post, and how it all works… First up. There is a twitter account for Beeri, checking for the latest “Pour” command. These tweets can [...]
Continue reading...UNIQLO: The Innovation Project
24. October 2011
I love Uniqlo digital work. And here is their latest piece for the new functional range of clothing. It’s a visual feast as usual, created through a series of various video catwalk demonstrations that slide past you. The demonstrations are quite litteral for every feature, from the “stretch pants” to the robust zippers and everything [...]
Continue reading...Volkswagen: New Beetle Augmented Reality Ads
23. October 2011
Have you seen the new Volkswagen Beetle? At first glance it’s actually pretty cool and decently aggressive. A major shift for Volkswagen’s Beetle.

Well, through a series of standard billboards, bus shelters and just about every other traditional print-based media property [...]

19. October 2011
I was in a meeting this afternoon chatting about banner campaigns and the general lack of innovation that surrounds them, for the most part anyway… We spoke too soon, welcome to the stage this great banner from Opel to showcase the utility potential of the new Opel Movano van. The banner literally carries your files [...]
Continue reading...Virgin: Book Holidays By Weather Forecast
19. October 2011
I love this student concept for Virgin, booking holidays based on the weather that you want, and what’s more, is that this is one of the more realistic, commercially aware concepts, again from the guys at the Miami Ad School who really do seem to be creating great young digital talent. Basically the process works [...]
Continue reading...Multi-Touch Wall of World Cup History
18. October 2011
Here is a pretty cool multi-touch installation for the Football World Cup 2018 Organising Committee in Russia. It features 8 round, multi-touch digital displays mounted into an 18 meter long wall.
