  • Coke Brings India and Pakistan Together Through a Vending Machine

    May 20th, 2013 / Comments (0)

    Coca-Cola's "Small World Machines" provide a live communications portal between people in India and Pakistan and show "that what unites us is stronger than what sets us apart." People in India and Pakistan could complete a task, like touching hands, drawing peace, love and happiness symbols together, and would then be rewarded with a Coke.

    We want to believe stuff like this really is breaking down barriers. The way this video is cut certainly makes you believe that the stunt resulted in a Hollywood ending. It makes you feel good, but is this the real world we live in? Hope so. Agency: Leo Burnett, Sydney.

  • New Belgium Pairs Well With People in New Campaign from Denver's Cultivator

    May 20th, 2013 / Comments (2)

    In its first TV advertising in eight years (and second ever), New Belgium Brewing sums up its brand values in its new tag, “Pairs well with people.” The line refers both to the employee-owned, environmentally proactive brewer and, in accompanying online videos, to its flagship brew, Fat Tire Ale. The campaign is the first television by Cultivator Advertising & Design for this client, and will run May 18 through Labor Day.

    The :30 spot aims to convey how the brewery “pairs well with people.” It was filmed on site and the entire cast are New Belgium employees. In four accompanying online :15s, the theme switches from the brewer to how its beer “pairs well with people.” Bar patrons (again, New Belgium employees) demonstrate “how to: make yourself more attractive; friend someone, unfriend them; make up; expand your social network.” Surprisingly (or not), a bottle or glass of Fat Tire is all it takes.

    The TV will run in 12 DMAs coast to coast, on all major networks, during primetime and late night, mainly live sports, comedy and original programming. The online videos will appear on HULU, YouTube, Facebook and via paid search.

  • Game of Thrones Houses Envisioned as Real, Modern-Day Brands

    May 17th, 2013 / Comments (0)

    Shutterstock, the stock photography site, has imagined what the different Game of Thrones houses would be like if they existed as common-day brands. Each visualization uses photos from Shutterstock's site. Although kind of an odd idea, it's a good one to draw attention — and draw people back — to a site that's just another repository of staged photos.

  • Let's Keep Pushing the Design of Colorado.com

    May 17th, 2013 / Comments (8)

    We really want the website people hit after seeing the beautiful Colorado advertising that Karsh has done to resemble it in every way. The newly refreshed Colorado.com isn't really delivering. It wouldn't take much design nuance to get it there, though.
