DDB Shanghai, Tribal DDB Shanghai China for “McDonald’s Cheer for China”

McDonald’s, a foreign Company, wanted to be more than just one of 56 or so Sponsors of the 2008 Beijing Olympics. DDB China and their sister, DDB Tribal Shanghai, found a way for them to become an integral part of it.

The “I’m lovin it when China Wins” campaign brought the 2008 Olympics to the people and became a movement for millions all over the country.

The Agencies seamlessly weaved the global tagline into everyone’s dream, for China to win the most medals and lead the World and a cheer. Millions had a chance to connect with the Olympics by learning a special cheer and performing it every time China won.

Using a viral interactive campaign, video “cheering stations” in McDonald’s stores and even a “Cheer for China Online Reality Show” the Promotion culminated in a Guinness World Record with the Winners of the Promotion and 1,200 cheerers, outside the Olympic Bird’s Nest Stadium.

McDonalds| Cheer for China

DDB Shanghai has won the Gold award at the MAA Globes Awards for the “Cheer for China” campaign developed for McDonalds during the Beijing Olympics. The award continues the Gold awarded at the China Effies in 2008.

McDonalds Cheer for China campaign

As an official sponsor of the Beijing Olympics McDonald’s were keen to find a way to join every Chinese person to the games. The McDonald’s slogan, “I’m loving it” was adapted to become “I’m loving it… China Win!”, a cheer to be used throughout the country.

McDonalds Cheering Station

A “cheering station” was designed, complete with webcam, microphone, interactive screen and web access. Every customer who went into the station could record their own video of a cheer for China and transfer the results to the McDonald’s China web site.

Ireland Innovation Comes Naturally

IDA Ireland, Ireland’s Industrial Development Agency, is running “Innovation Comes Naturally”, an international advertising campaign in television, print, online and out-of-home media, online at www.idaireland.com/innovation/.

Ireland Clean Energy


“Clean energy. Green technology. And fresh thinking. Why businesses are putting down roots in Ireland.”

The television advertisements emphasise the sometimes spontaneous nature of innovation. It depicts the lines left by a piece of chalk as it sketches out an idea on a blackboard. As we watch, the chalk doodles and dashes about the board. Finally it comes to a successful conclusion, as we see a chalk representation of fireworks above a doodled map of Ireland.

Actor Stanley Townsend provides the voiceover. “Innovation. What it isn’t is something that happens step-by-predictable-step. It doesn’t always stop at the lights. Sometimes it goes backwards to go forwards. It goes up blind alleys. It zigs and it zags. It wiggles. And then… And then it lets rip. Your job is simple. Just give it the right environment. Ireland. Where innovation comes naturally”


“New thinking is not about the dollars you invest,” one ad asserts. “It’s about the people you invest in.”

Ireland New Thinking Ireland Finance

“See how your business can benefit when a nation thinks laterally.” “Step by step logic will only take your business so far.”

Ireland Think Laterally Ireland Step by Step

“Facebook found a space for people who think in a certain way,” the headline of one ad proclaims. It’s called Ireland.” “Google googled the planet for the perfect location for their business. They came up with Ireland.”

Ireland Facebook Ireland Facebook

“We’ve created clusters of expertise in many different technologies”. “New thinking is not about the dollars you invest”.

Ireland Clusters Ireland New Thinking

Mudie told the New York Times about the inspiration for the campaign coming from stencil maps of Ireland that came out as whie on black, looking as though they were drawn on a black board. That led to thoughts about the famous picture of Einstein at a blackboard, which triggered images of a group of people, trying to think of something, using a chalkboard because you can stand back and take a look at what is written. All that inspired the concept of a green board.

The TV commercials are appearing on the Bloomberg and CNBC cable channels. The print and online ads are running in business magazines and newspapers, and their related Web sites, like The Economist, Fortune, The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal.

The Ireland campaign was developed at McConnells, Dublin, by creative director/copywriter Laurence Keogh and creative director/art director Tim Mudie. Media planning and buying in the United States are being handled by BCA Marketing Communications in New York.

LA Fitness| Swimming pool


Keeping fit is not just a fad – it’s a way of life.
Stress at work is spurring one in five of us to exercise MORE than we did a year ago, according to research published today. The study, which was commissioned by gym chain LA Fitness, suggests most of us find exercise a great stress buster.
Swimming is considered one of the best ways to keep fit. But as Catherine Bayfield reports if youre thinking of taking the plunge you may want to make more of a splash than this lot did.

Verizon decides it's time to make fun of the iPhone on two fronts


With Apple still selling iPhones like there's no tomorrow -- it sold 7.4 million of them in the last quarter -- it's not exactly tme to kick the company in the teeth while it's down on its luck. So what's up with the two campaigns out right now from Verizon that make fun of the iPhone specifically, and iCulture in general?

The first is the campaign below for Verizon's new Motorola 'Droid phone; in the nanosecond that the campaign's been out, it's at least managed to gain some notoriety, even though all of those references to "iDon't" makes it sound, well, like a dumbphone unless you're paying attention. The references to iDon't are actually about the iPhone. More than 700,000 YouTube views later, here's the spot, which has led some to speculate that the endless poking of fun at 
the iPhone may kill any possibility of Verizon becoming an iPhone carrier too. (Damn!)

Popout


The second attacks the iPhone in a more obtuse way. In this one, a voiceover intones over and over that, "There's a map for that" instead of the iPhone-esque, 
"There's an app for that." The maps in question are really ones showing that Verizon's 3G coverage across the U.S. is much stronger than AT&T's — AT&T, of course, being the sole carrier for the aforementioned iPhone, which kind of lives for 3G.



Case Study: My Year Without Sex Social Media Campaign



Problemo: My Year Without Sex was a new Australian film, which was hard to market as it didn’t fit into one specific category. The trailer was not going to be enough to get people to watch it. Working on a small budget we needed to get people to talk about the film.


Strategy: Use word of mouth to help fuel discussion around the movie

Implementation: 

Identifying Key Environments 
We identified the target market as mothers. Using Google Ad Planner and a number of other tools we looked for the environments where mothers were most vocal online and three environments stood out; Facebook, Mothers Forums and Mother Blogs.

Part 1: Mothers Forums
We went out to a number of the major mothers forums and offered the Moderators of the sites free double passes to see the film. Forums host some of the liveliest discussions online.

Part 2: Blogs
We identified a number of influential female blogs that we thought would enjoy the film. These bloggers were found using the 
Top 100 Australian Women Bloggers list. From this list we got a number of high profile bloggers to go and see the movie. We also used the NuffNang to outreach to a further 20 bloggers.

Part 3: Facebook
There was an opportunity to get a number of people along to a pre screening for the film in each major cities. We used Facebook Advertising and a Facebook Event to set up an exclusive 
Facebook Pre Screening for 500 people. We also ran a Facebook Page which had further information about the movie.

Part 4: Youtube - Creating a piece of passable content 
We decided to create a piece of content around the film which we believed could have mass appeal online. We created the ‘5 Things that get in the way of Sex’ video. We were able to get this video to the front page of Digg and then Youtube Honour Board with 25,000 views in one week. This ended up being the feature of a blog post in
Sydney Morning Herald Ask Sam Blog.


Result: 
In its opening week MYWS took $177,522 and has currently grossed $1,127,838 in box office sales.

Learnings: 
Facebook Page
It is really hard for someone to become a fan of a product that they have no knowledge about. We did not see growth in the Page until after the release date which usually does not work with the timings/budgeting of films.

Facebook Advertising
This campaign ran from early April to May this year, this was before the upgrade to the Facebook advertising model. We were only able to manage to get 900 people into the Page for the movie, when we promoted Cedar Boys another Australian film we were able to get 2,000 easily into the Page. So this new upgrade has definitely made a difference.
