Just using a fake Bruno

Bruno is the new movie of Sasha Baron Cohen (the guy of Borat and Ali-G).
As you can image this is the most hilarious and fearless movie of the moment.

This could be one of the reasons why Nando's decide to make a great Guerrilla Marketing act at the premiere of the movie.

Just half an hour before actor Sacha Baron Cohen came, a pink stretch hummer
arrived at the Sydney screening and...



I really love this style, this is a pure guerrilla marketing (no fear, against the rules, funny...)!

Also EA needs UGC!!!




This period is made by

1.low budgets for advertising
2.a lot of concepters/copywriters that are not working

Death happens

Who to promote a Life Insurance company?

Simple, just remembering that death happens:



The interesting thing is not the message but the dynamic: in fact if you see the something fallen on the floor you may watch the roof. There you find the claim and the website.

Would you like to save the world?

Just switch it off:

A simple sticker transforms your on-off switch in a question: "Would you like to save energy and help to decrease the effects of global warming?"

It is logical:

if you are in a bankrupt process and you are connected with the American (and world's) financial dynamics,
if you made a beautiful video to say "don't panic!!!"...

Nokia has launched a contest based on the creation of video playlists for Middle East & Africa users.

The platform doesn't seems to work well but one of these videos is amazing:

Wake up Human!!

The story is always the same: if it doesn't touch me directly I don't care, it is not my problem...

For this reason amnesty exported the violations of human rights in our daily life. The result is a powerful cross-media campaign:
