Dang Them and Their Dang Viral Advertising

Wednesday, December 10, 2008 - 05:33 PM

I gotta admit, when a Sheldonista sent me this, I didn't immediately spot this as viral advertising. That's how clever the text-integration is. It's clever.

Verrrrry clever.

All the more so, because there was an 8-year old part of me that was going "Finally! The theme park recognition I've always wanted...."

So no Flaco in Wonderland ride? No Pugs of the Caribbean? No Arthur Duck's Wild Ride?

Well, I guess my vacation plans are ruined!

Speaking of Viral Advertising. I am working on a project for a traditionally "ludite" organization. It's nice to see the acknowledgment of new methods to reach the younger generation. Unfortunately, when I submitted the reports to track my workload on this project, the higher ups automatically changed the word "viral" to "vital". They thought I had made a typo. So close, yet still so far to go.

My God, how did they pull that off? That's a lot of different fonts and things, moving around and tracking... I'm floored. That stuff is really hard to do this well...

I've seen this kinda thing before, where I was running for President... but this is the first one I've seen where they actually speak the name... That's pretty cool!

*jumps up and down* I know it's fake, but it's still awesome for Disney dorks like me who would LOVE to have that actually happen.

I've not only sent this to a couple of friends, I keep replaying my own.

There are times when Disney is brilliant.
