Volkswagen: Hidden Frame YouTube Ad
Another cool YouTube play from Volkswagen, with this ‘Hidden Frame’ being used to promote their new side assist feature. The Ad utilises a standard YouTube feature, which is the ‘frame view’ when you mouse over the timeline… This isn’t extremely innovative, but it’s a pretty smart and fun way to get the message across. What [...]
Continue reading...Volkswagen: The Automatic Skip Ad on YouTube
23. April 2013
Volkswagen always seem to have license to do things differently, and with YouTube Pre-Rolls, they’ve created an ad that hits the ‘Skip Ad’ button for you, aiming to highlight that the new Beetle with DSG Tiptronic transmission doesn’t need you to shift gears. So neither will this very ad. With the video playing the sequence [...]
Continue reading...Qualcomm Mobile: Best Bus Stop Ever
26. February 2013
A pretty cool stunt from Qualcomm, the guys who’s chipsets power a tonne of the world’s best smartphones, to showcase how everyday life is just better with mobile. So they bought out the ad space on a bus stop, replaced it with a message pointing to a mobile site URL, and waited for people to [...]
Continue reading...Red Bull Kluge: Ultimate Athlete Dominos
13. November 2012
This format isn’t exactly new, but you’ve also probably never seen quite a line up like this all in one piece of content… Red Bull Kluge is the next instalment of ‘Athlete Machines’ meet domino challenges featuring a host of Red Bull sponsored athletes. It starts slow, and some parts are probably a little forced, [...]
Continue reading...YouTube: The 5 Second Skip Ad Campaign
5. September 2012
I think everyone has had some sort of idea for the Skip Ad button on YouTube, but here’s a live one for a government environmental care agency in Chile (by MayoDraftfcb) showcasing a range of environmental messages that challenge you to either skip the ad or skip the behaviour. In just one week, over 80,000 [...]

Continue reading...Goodyear: ‘Control Freak’ Live Test Drives
16. July 2012
Here’s a different kind of way to sell tyres from Goodyear, test drives! A bit weird right? It almost sounds too generic… Well, maybe not when you’ve placed the new Eagle F1 tyres on a top of the line BMW sports edition and setup a crazy stunt track to demo the tyres on with unsuspecting [...]
Continue reading...Volkswagen “The Original Click” YouTube Ads
24. May 2012
Here’s a really simple, but suitably smart digital media buy from Volkswagen, attempting to warn people not to stand for imitation Volkswagen parts. To do this, Volkswagen bought YouTube ads across popular videos that were imitations of great ones, and served them with an ad saying “Don’t accept Imitations. Prefer Original Parts” which would click [...]
Continue reading...TippExperience 2: Hunter and Bear’s Time Warp
19. April 2012

Well, they are back, and this time it’s Hunter and Bear’s Birthday… Only this time, they are both in a world of trouble as a [...]
Continue reading...Mad Men: The 8-Bit YouTube Advergame
25. March 2012
Mad Men is back and along with it comes a host of great content, including this weirdly wonderful 8-Bit YouTube “Choose Your Own Adventure” style Advergame that is getting some solid traction. It’s less than 5 days old and already over 300,000 people have played the game (or at least started it), plenty of the [...]
Continue reading...Scandinavian Airlines: QR Code Video Offers
16. January 2012
Just about every other week I get asked about QR codes, you probably do too… Most people will ummm and arrr about their uptake and effectiveness, but it’s only because they don’t think about the post-scan experience properly, and typically fail to get creative enough to get results. Well, not Scandinavian Airlines, who recently launched [...]
Continue reading...LG: Fashion Industry Vacuum Cleaner Viral
9. January 2012
Ok so this sounds a little weird right, a vacuum cleaner viral video? Well, yeah, it can be done, here is a pretty clever piece of work from LG in Australia that’s gone viral over the last few weeks, picking up over 1.5 millions views on the original video, with a number of others picking [...]

Continue reading...IKEA: Catch The Swedish Light Campaign
22. November 2011
Here is a really interesting way to run a competition using YouTube videos.
