The “Driving Challenge” builds upon a film made by the University of Illinois 10 years ago to demonstrate the psychological principle of inattentional blindness. Essentially, the interactive game uses this concept to directly demonstrate that your driving is impaired when talking on a mobile phone, either hand held or hands free. In fact, the game reveals that if you use your mobile phone whilst driving you are four times more likely to crash! Its whole aim is to encourage drivers to be more vigilant.

Take the test!

Please see the BuzzMan cases here http://www.buzzman.tv/zaoza2007_fr/

I belive its a sucess case;

I found very interesting how they integrated all the tecnolgies and the concept of the service

Congrat to the work done

A bit late but some movies to remember









A different Kind of AD:





Congrat eStara for being present in this campaign

Buzzman did just a great job
an Vivendi great product

MEO

http://jatens.meo.pt/


Sorry if this only works for Portuguese People.
Great piece of New Online Tools Usage.
Is not a Inovative one, you may know that we did it exactly the same with Sporting and PAulo Bento, even its a tecnology copy from one of our competitors, but im showing fair playing in this moment, and showing this ORGINAL CAMPAIGN.
CONGRAT PT for Your Inovative Thinking, but in terms of Tecnology provider is a pitty that people continues to prefer FAKE and CHEAP against ORIGNAL and QUALITY.

IF you like this type of campaigns you better know that VODAFONE, GILLETE, PRINGLES, OPEL, SEAT, SCNF, COMEDY CENTRAL, MCDONALDS and many other mores allready did this...and if you want some more info i will be honor to personally send more info.


Till next week ( Im going to Madrid This weekend)

Inteligent Piece of Advertising

Just received this by email and I believe that its an interesting one.
Dont know much about this piece, just that was used by Lotto.

Nice Movie
Nice Muscic
Surpreendent Ending

=)

Nice in Overall

Dream Big

OHH no Football again.... I adviced

After the one from Nike I needed to compensate it on the ADIDAS side... And this one they deserve even a bigger space.

I was well-aware of the recent Nike campaign, “Take it to the next level,” but I wasn’t as familiar with what Adidas was up to putting forth. The blog from Beyond Madison Avenue did the favour to me.

"Adidas produced a documentary surrounding Kaká, Messi, Gerrard and Beckham meeting local football teams in Andorra, San Marino and the Isles of Scilly as part of the film project “Dream Big”.

The production quality of the project is awesome and the feeling that it creates is truly heartwarming. Adidas sending out sports stars to these small cities creates a sense of global awareness and conscience. The concept of “Dream Big” is a strong message that speaks for both Adidas and youth culture in general. "


Even Mourinho deserves congratulations for this great piece.

THE BREAK UP

This was shown me in my UNIVERSITY this weekend and I was really having fun ont the agency side. Sometimes it seems its true.
The Break-Up' is about the relationship between an advertiser and a consumer. They've agreed to meet in a restaurant. The man's feeling perfectly happy, until the woman makes a painful announcement: she wants a divorce. In the course of their conversation she makes it clear to him why she is leaving him. And he makes it very clear that he doesn't have an empathic bone in his body. At the end of the movie the woman walks away disappointed but determined. The advertiser stays behind alone.


http://bringtheloveback.com is a nice BLOG FYI.

Facebook Chat

Last week i found the Facebook new tool the Chat and for mee it was a good new...not that i will use it a lot... but In fact interesting...

I found this good article, that is exactly the same I think about it:



"Facebook chat went live last week and the jury is still out on how—or if—people are going to use it. Right now it seems to mostly be in the “Hey, is this thing on?” stage, where people are testing it out and seeing how it works.

Many people I’ve spoken with feel the same way about it that I do: it’s a useful tool, but we’re wary because our Facebook friend list is much broader than our IM list and we’re living in fear of those casual acquaintances you had to spend fifteen minutes to remember when they first friended you will be the ones popping up to chat with you on Facebook.

While that fear is likely unfounded, there is the very real issue of a shift in how we use Facebook. Until now, it was a solitary activity where your interactions with people—via messages, wall postings and the like– did not occur in real time. Adding a real time chat element changes how you use the site: no more clicking back and forth, on and off the site, if you are in the middle of a conversation. And suddenly you are very aware of which of your friends is spending all their time on Facebook. (there was always the option to check to see who else was online, but people rarely did, since there was no upside to it other than satisfaction of curiousity.)

The interface itself is fairly basic, though it does allow for emoticons and clickable links. Personally, I have not found much use for it—I have many other ways (IM, Twitter, Email, phone) of reaching the people I know on Facebook. But I’m curious as to how many of you view Facebook chat and if you’ve found yourselves using it. Because given the popularity and ubiquity of Facebook, it wouldn’t surprise me if it really caught on."

eStara Wins 2008 ad:tech Award for ''Best Direct Response Campaign''

As I made part of this... I couldnt resist


=)

http://news.moneycentral.msn.com/ticker/article.aspx?Feed=BW&Date=20080416&ID=8494368&Symbol=ARTG

ATG (Art Technology Group, Inc.), the top-ranked e-commerce platform and optimization services provider, today announced ATG's eStara Click to Call service won Best Direct Response Campaign for its online program, "Soccer Club Sells Seats with DRC," at the industry's most prestigious interactive advertising conference, ad:tech San Francisco 2008. eStara Click to Call technology powered the interactive campaign for a major Portuguese soccer club, Sporting, and ignited enthusiasm for Sporting fans through a personalized experience with coach Paulo Bento.
The Best Direct Response Campaign award was presented during ad:tech's 11th annual awards ceremony on April 15, 2008 at ad:tech San Francisco. The award category distinguishes direct to business or direct-to-consumer campaigns that yield a measurable response rate and includes a competitive entry list with such companies as the Gap and Hip Hop Digital Media. Industry experts lining the judging panel included executives from Tribal DDB, ARF, Yahoo!, Organic, DoubleClick, Real Branding, Jetset Studios, Nike, Facebook and CNET Networks Inc., to name a few.
"The ad:tech awards recognize pioneering companies that demonstrate excellence in interactive marketing," said Don Knox, Vice President, ad:tech Global. "We are impressed by the quality, creativity and innovation of the campaigns this year, which reflects the positive progression of the internet marketing industry."
Sporting initiated "Soccer Club Sells Seats with DRC" by enlisting eStara to create an opportunity for soccer enthusiasts to directly engage with the team to promote the brand, encourage game attendance and drive season ticket sales through a memorable, interactive Web advertisement. eStara's Click to Call technology allowed fans to personally connect with Sporting's coach - an incentive that peeked massive interest.
The ad ran on the Sporting website (www.Sporting.pt), asking viewers to supply their name and telephone number to find out more about how they could help the football team succeed. Users who entered their name and number were shown a brief video of the team in the locker room where Coach Paulo Bento receives a team roster with a missing member. The coach then sees the viewer's name on the list and dials his phone. Powered by eStara Click to Call technology the viewer's own phone rings and the coach urges the viewer to get to the stadium fast because the team needs her. Within two weeks of the campaign, Sporting.pt drew 610,000 visits - resulting in 1,500 new memberships.
"Fusing creativity, strategy and technology to produce the Sporting campaign was an incredible opportunity," said Cid Jenkins, vice president of sales, North America for ATG's eStara line of e-commerce optimization services. "The immediate impact of our Click to Call technology helped to initiate 200,000 calls within two days and drive record-high season ticket sales."

Web sensorial campaign

http://www.horselstest.no/english/

This one is creating quite a buzz (pun intended), but you’ll need to have headphones to fully experience it.

Come on, give it a try. And listen carefully.
It’s more important than you might think.

Awareness

http://www.dothetest.co.uk/





A witty mind hack and web sensorial campaign by Transport for London, aiming to reduce the number of cyclists that are hurt on London’s roads.
According to the campaign press release, researchers at Harvard University played this trick on some unsuspecting people and over 50 per cent failed to spot the change. This selective blindness is possibly the reason why motorists collide with cyclists.

Check also another video piece from Transport for London, that also plays on mind hacks.
