Last year, Durex UK created a new way for its viewers to interact with its TV ad. Viewers who used the Durex Explore mobile app [iTunes or Google Play] while watching the ad on their TV or computer, got a steamy alternative on their second screen.
Then on Valentine’s Day this year, they released a steamy radio spot that also used the same Durex Explore app to provide listeners with a similar steamy video experience on their smartphone or tablet. To exprience it click here.
Fiftyfifty is a gallery based in Düsseldorf, Germany, that is actively trying to help out those less fortunate and homeless.
To simulate what it would be like to live on the streets, they got cinemas in Germany to turn the airconditioning to 8°C / 46°F. Then they showed videos of homeless people on the street commenting on the cold cinema experience. It turned out that for them 8°C / 46°F was cozy.
This reality check for the people pushed them to scan the QR codes on the blankets and donate some money to keep the homeless people warm.
