Australia|World AIDS Campaign

Here in Australia it’s now December 3, two days after World AIDS Day. The campaign has been picked up by a large number of organisations, brands and web sites. Twitter turned red in honour of the day, in collaboration with Product Red. The Inspiration Room Daily site has gone red. Google has a special page for the day. The red ribbon is everywhere. It’s all part of a much larger campaign, run over many years, to uphold a commitment to reach universal access to HIV prevention, treatment, care and support. The World AIDS Campaign has released four posters and two postcards that pick up that commitment to human rights.

World AIDS Day Beginning

The World AIDS Day concept was developed in 1987 by James W. Bunn and Thomas Netter, two public information officers for the Global Programme on AIDS at the World Health Organization in Geneva, Switzerland. The campaign was picked up and promoted by Dr. Jonathan Mann, Director of the Global Programme on AIDS (now known as UNAIDS), with the first World AIDS Day held on 1 December 1998.

Bunn suggested the date of December 1st to ensure coverage by western news media, something he believed was vital to the success of World AIDS Day. He felt that because 1988 was an election year in the U.S. media outlets would be weary of their post-election coverage and eager to find a fresh story to cover. Bunn and Netter felt that December 1 was long enough after the election and soon enough before the Christmas holidays that it was, in effect, a dead spot in the news calendar and thus perfect timing for World AIDS Day.

ABSOLUT VODKA| ‘Every Drink is an Exceptional Experience’

ABSOLUT VODKA debuts ‘Drinks,’ the latest work of a new generation of creative collaborators. Via a collaboration with some of the most exciting personalities on the planet, “Drinks” brings the cocktail world to life with renowned fashion photographer Ellen Von Unwerth and critically-acclaimed actresses Kate Beckinsale and Zooey Deschanel to celebrate uniquely ABSOLUT drinks.

With the tagline, ‘Every Drink is an Exceptional Experience,’ the new ads are a tribute to those drinks that changed the playing field within the cocktail community and continue to have relevance among today’s vodka connoisseurs. The initiative underlines that every cocktail starts with a story – from the legendary lore of the Bloody Mary’s creation at Harry’s Bar in Paris to the legions of female fans of the otherworldly Cosmopolitan.
“As the next iteration in the campaign, ‘Drinks’ is a witty interpretation of classic cocktails that pay homage to ABSOLUT VODKA’s legacy as a truly iconic spirits brand and the key ingredient in making these drinks an exceptional experience for consumers and bartenders,” says Tim Murphy, ABSOLUT Vice President of Marketing. “No other vodka has as much longevity within both the cocktail and creative worlds, and “Drinks” is the culmination of our 30 years of bringing collaborations to life, while showcasing the drinks that made the brand a back bar staple.” 

Known for her distinctly bold and playful adaptations of fashion and beauty photography, Ellen von Unwerth captures Kate Beckinsale and Zooey Deschanel’s characters as they are immersed in different cocktail worlds. The drinks profiled include the iconic cocktails that made the brand famous, like ABSOLUT Bloody, ABSOLUT Cosmo, ABSOLUT Twist and ABSOLUT Crush, as well as a new recipe to be revealed in the coming months.

2010| Web trends list

8. software

Social Media

• Twitter integration and apps were king in 2009 and are here to stay. Either you integrate or you perish
• Tumblr is successful and growing in the shadow of Twitter, when Twitter finally loses steam will Tumblr be the new darling?
• Market consolidation in social media leaving only a few major players on the scene: Twitter, Facebook and who else?
• Social news (Digg, Reddit) and bookmarking (Delicious) will become obsolete. Already the first wave of social media that is social news and bookmarking lose against Twitter.
• Social browsing (StumbleUpon etc.) is already dead. There were more than a dozen of social browsing services in 2008. Most of them are dead or on hiatus already. More to follow.

Business

• We’ll witness a demise or hiatus of most startups without critical mass of users as the money runs out
• We can expect a proliferation of premium and freemium business models as venture capital stays scarce
• Companies and brands will have to develop a social media strategy in 2010 to stay afloat
• With business accounts and data access selling like hotcakes and additional revenue sources Twitter will become profitable in 2010 already

Mobile

• We’ll see a smartphone systems death match as the market isn’t big enough for all the often incompatible systems we have right now.
• Apple will be losing market share. The iPhone still looks like years ago. They don’t even have a netbook yet. They can’t rely on cult tactics forever.
• Phones and calls for free thanks Google: Google prepares the real Google Phone combining Google Voice and Gizmo5 VoIP to offer free calls.

Marketing

• We’ll see less bullshit and more substance in the online marketing field. As the Web matures more and more people become too savvy to get fooled.
• Advertising replaced on the Web by “ad content” that is non promotional content about the brand, company or products: Less banners more reports.

Search

• Real time search will go prime time for everyone, not just the search geeks and early adopters
• Google and Bing will keep on copying each other in order to capitalize on the search advertising market
• Advanced personalization will lead to your own personal search results for most people rendering ranking checks useless

SEO

• SEO is becoming ubiquitous, everybody does it (BBC etc.) and in 2010 those who don’t will fail to compete
• More SEO experts will return underground again inspite of ubiquitous SEO due to wide spread prejudice of the ignorant against the trade
• Like it or not but we’ll see more jQuery pop ups due to their high conversion rate. 

Web Design & Development

• Mobile apps will continue to boom and optimized web pages for mobile use will become common place finally
• HTML5 and CSS3 will allow web designers to offer extra features possible backed by graceful degradationin oder to support for older browsers
• YouTube censorship spawns an open source and DIY video embedding counter movement. We already witness it but in 2010 you’ll look like a noob using YouTube on your site

Blogging

• Blogs get even more authoritative and accepted, becoming the “old media” of the Web
• Quick and clean miniblogging (Tumblr, Posterous etc.) establish a lively sphere between Twitter-like microblogging and blogging.
• Video content finally gets the importance we expected for years now with growing band width etc.

Software

• There will be more cloud computing and web based software or rather webware around and people will use it more often
• Most notably Google Docs will convince more users of the Microsoft Office desktop edition to switch
• At the same time Google Chrome OS will be competing successfully with Windows at least on netbooks

Campaign| Fuck You AIDS!

Fuck You Aids! It means exactly it: to fuck the HIV. Rather, to anticipate his transmission. Because if at the moment of supporting sexual relations we use ALWAYS condom, we will kill to the AIDS and to other sexually transmitted diseases.
The AIDS is BAD it respects no age,  sex, nor religion or social class. It is aggressive, virulent and bad-mannered. Such a complex problematics, full of edges that to interpret and factors of diverse nature that to neutralize deserves a simple, direct and forceful response. Because of it, we are going to treat to the AIDS like it deserves, giving him a good dose of his own medicine.

SOLUTION: Contrastrategy: instead of realizing the unique and weak graphical piece… we extend the pre-established diffusion, adding channels or means of diffusion and applying the message in a real sweep 360º.

For it, we design a universally strong concept that includes an integral campaign and of length crossed of prevención/concienciación governed under the unique phrase that says our worse desire to the disease: that Fuck You AIDS! This way and only this way: hating it and wishing the worst thing him, we will be conscious of using condoms whenever we support sexual relations of risk and will create again the habit of use that so much and damage it will cause him to the disease.
