The Bark Side: VW Super Bowl Teaser 2012

"This video is not part of the actual 60-second spot that will be aired during the game. The Bark Side teaser was created to hint toward some of the exciting elements and characters that will be in the Super Bowl spot. Keep an eye out for our 2012 Game Day commercial — it will all make sense" - AdWeek

Yes, this 'canine choir' are woof'ing the Imperial March, Darth Vader theme song from Star Wars. How many characters can you identify? A nice continuation from last year's The Force and Black Beetle (YouTube takeover version) Super Bowl ads. It seems users will be able to create an 'intergalactic invite' for a Game Party in a Star Wars title crawl style, from the 27th of Jan. 

"Feel the force of German engineering"

See the Volkswagen, intergalactic invite teaser message!

Wimpy Braille Burgers for the Blind

A truly outstanding campaign! The goal was to let the blind community know that Wimpy offered braille menus in all their restaurants. Just 15 braille burgers were made (sesame seeds), but the message reached more than 800 thousand visually impaired people. I love their smiles.

Mobile Year in Review 2011

Is the pen mightier than the sword? Probably not, but the mobile device might be. 2011 wasn't just the year of mobile, it was the year that mobile took over the world, as they say in this video, along with some mind blowing stats. Exciting growth in 2011 and another awesome video following last years.

Got A Fresher Look, What Do YOU Think?

Yes, I know Blogger is the real cheese of platforms to use, but it does the job for me right now. A simple colour change with some cleaning-up has freshened things up nicely. The darkness and bright text needed to go, the change to a lighter reading area is the right one, in my opinion. The blog is a little wider now, the 'About' and 'Contact' pages have been updated and the navigation text is green as a little reminder of the past.

Check out Before/After and please tune me whether you like (1.) or (2.) below:

The colours since her birth in 2009.

(1.) Too light? Texture comes through better.

(2.) Current. Win. What do you think?
