Plot Device – a viral product demonstration

Doing a video product demonstration for a video editing software is, one must admit, fairly easy. However, in the short movie „plot device“, the execution ist phenomenal. It could have been easy, but instead the makers of this video put all their efforts into producing a nice story on a shoestring budget:

And here is how they made it:

The video went fairly viral with 550k views in 2 months.

The One Club „Best of digital decade“ is here.

Digital Marketing is more than a decade old. But the last decade has been particularly interesting. The famous One Club has now announced their „best of digital decade„. They are:

  • The subservient chicken – who would have guessed? This has been such a huge hit, I am always amazed when people say they don’t know this.
  • The hire – the famous BMW films.
  • Nike Plus – fantastic example of wholistic thinking beyond pure campaigning.
  • Uniqlock – not really my thing, I have to admit.
  • Whopper sacrifice – a campaign that caused more talk than participants, I would assume.
  • Chalkbot – fantastic on- / offline campaign.
  • Dreamkitchens – great content.
  • Eco Drive – another good example of wholistic thinking.
  • HBO Voyeur – again, great content and interaction.
  • Dove Evolution – not really a digital play, except for the fact that the clip was seeded only first. But nevertheless, it was a great idea based on a simple insight.
