Samsung Extreme Sheep LED Art



Traditionally, commercials highlight the rational or emotional benefits associated with a product, company or brand. Ideally, the benefits are clearly articulated in 15 to 30 seconds to encourage consumers to purchase the promoted product or to increase loyalty in a brand. If a commercial is longer then 30 seconds, then a viewer will normally start to lose attention.

Recently, Samsung posted "Samsung Extreme Sheep LED Art," a two-minute video that creatively highlights the durability of the company's LED with the bucolic pastime of shepherding. Although the video is ten times longer then a traditional 15 second commercial, the commercial's unique combination of highlighting rational and emotional benefits engages a viewer and has virally generated over 3 million views for the film in less then a week.

When you create your next commercial or advertising campaign, consider creatively highlighting both rational and emotional benefits to push the imagination and give the consumer something worth sharing with their friends.

Don't be afraid, if you are not "qualified."

You'll never know when you're big break will happen.  The secret is to be ready at all times. Last weekend, Matt Williams, a Texas Tech sophomore, won a month of free rent by kicking a 30-yard field goal during a contest at his school's football game. Although Texas Tech is currently ranked #8 in the country, the team has missed six extra point attempts and half of its field goal attempts. Following the contest, Mike Leach, Texas Tech's football coach, approached Williams and asked him to be the team's extra point kicker. Tomorrow, Williams receives his big break and will kick extra points against #19 Kansas. If you have a talent, don't be afraid to share it.  You'll never know who is watching and where it will take you.
