A naughty viral…

We recently came across a rather naughty viral for Skittles…

{Please note: this isn’t suitable for under 18′s}

Although there’s a big disclaimer saying it has nothing to do with Wrigley or Skittles themselves, there’s some nice production in it that cost ‘someone’ some cash. Clearly, watching the video it’s obvious why they can’t be seen to have commissioned it themselves.

We love the way big brands are cottoning on to the idea that a low-cost viral can spread like wildfire, if the concept is really and truly rude, shocking or proper funny.

This doesn’t apply to marketing managers that don’t have bottle to be rude (You’d be surprised how reluctant people are to be rude). Someone using your product wearing a funny hat is not going to make a great viral, and we’ve all seen enough cute cat/baby videos.

If you would like to investigate promoting your brand or product through viral advertising, we can come up with an idea, shoot and distribute it for you. The question is, do you have the bottle?

Our auto-turner is out of action (Mike over used it )

Cookie Monster sang about Google 27 years ago

Ash — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 10:37:56 +0000

Yes, it came 16 years before Google ever existed and yes, technically the song is about Cookie Monsters googly eyes, but some how it still sorta fits as tribute to the search engine giant.

Another good one.

Want new business cards-here’s the best!

Mike — Tue, 21 Apr 2009 13:31:09 +0000

Okay- so here at Cloud 9, we’ve seen (and designed) a lot of business cards, but this guy is obviously passionate about his.

Is it the best business card you’ve ever seen? Are we wrong? Can Americans really design?

You be the judge…

Easter Colouring Fun!

Cloud 9 — Tue, 07 Apr 2009 10:59:25 +0000

At Cloud 9 we love colouring-in. It’s what we do for a living!

Here are some pictures of a funny Easter rabbit.

Ask a grown-up to download the PDF and then print it out so you can try colouring it in too.

If you do a good job, ask your grown-up to scan it, or take a photo, and email it to us.

We’ll put it on our website for everyone to see.

Röyksopp – Remind Me

Ash — Fri, 03 Apr 2009 08:42:22 +0000

After seeing Mike’s post on A beautiful bit of VW Bus animation and it spoke about the Röyksopp Remind Me video. So I thought it best to share it with you, so here it is. Remind Me from Röyksopp on Vimeo.

Avalanches’ music videos

I guess all the Avalanches’ music videos are pretty awesome. Love this one. From Wikipedia: “The ‘Since I Left You’ video won “Video Of The Year” at the MTV Europe Music Awards in 2001.” Guess I missed it the first time around. Thank you YouTube. Oh and this one is good too!

Google before the Internet happened

Some of you out there may have heard of this little search engine thing called Google, but how did it all start? Google have been in the search business for around about 78 years now and have come in to their own with the invention of the Internet, but can you remember when you had to fill out a card and post it off to them, then wait 30 days for something to come back?

Rember these?
