The one we did was quite cool I thought: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wWCA5Ttw3Bs
Some may be able to forgive Michael Owen anything after tha goal against Argentina.
Their resolve will be tested by his promo video for Dubai though.

You and I obviously have different definitions of cool. It's better produced but it's still complete and utter turd.I'm guessing the first one had some work experience teenager behind it, but then he got a lot of people buying into it so maybe not. Beggars belief that anyone would think that is a good image for a tech giant to be offering up.

I feel sick after seeing that. I daren't even watch the others. I want to show some of my colleagues but I'm afraid someone with 'chief' in their job title will see it and think it's a good idea to do the same.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LqlagXEBirA&fe...

Don't hold back, what do you really think?
Paddy Power are a good example of how to do things on the edge, Irn Bru likewise from time to time. But faceless backroom corporates trying to ride the social meeja, Youtube bandwagon doesn't work. As we can clearly see.
There was one by a travel agent went viral a year or two back, dancing in the street. Proper amateur cringe stuff but it was a wee family business. If Ericsson are going to do a video ffs they could throw a few quid at it.
I just can't understand the thought process that's gone into these. What the expectations and objectives were. I can't imagine they were fulfilled, and if they were they're easily pleased.

Patronising in the extreme...
Was handed the book by a manager a few years ago, what a load to patronising crap... I handed him a copy of 'the art of war' and 'Zen and art of motorcycle maintenance' as it was apparent he'd read neither.Patronising in the extreme...

Is that for real or a spoof?
If that's for real and my boss told me we were making a video like that I'd leave.
