A View From An AdGuy: Ray-Ban Never Hide Campaign

About A View From An Adguy

I wasn't sure I would ever get into this blogging thing... ever. But the time has come and here is the home of my thoughts, advice, references, tales, passion and feelings on advertising and the life involved within.

When I decided this was to be a "new" method or additional "voice" to my teaching, motivating and inspiring for my students and friends, my first thoughts turned immediately to time.

TIME! Something we all value and never seem to have enough of. That will be my guide. TIME. I will use mine wisely and respect yours, making the post relevant and timely.

So welcome. Spend some of your valuable time here hopefully to learn, share, be inspired, and maybe even entertained.

Ray-Ban Never Hide Campaign

This was just sent to me... the campaign has helped promote Ray-Ban sunglasses, and Ray-Ban created a series of viral videos called Never Hide Films. With 18 videos posted to date, sone have seen multi-million views, and a few four-digit failures, so it’s an interesting look at what works well as an online viral video, and what doesn’t. The most recent post was shot completely in the "Never Hide Films Video Booth" during the 2009 SXSW Music Festival in Austin, TX.

100 People/1 Minute. Cool beat. They call it freestyle... hmmmmm! Beatbox yes, FreeStyle no!

You can download a free MP3 of the film's soundtrack at the YouTube NeverHide page

Beats + edits by Squeak E. Clean & Rossangeles.
