Publicis - 2014 message
To celebrate the last official year ending with the company called Publicis, before the merger, Maurice Lévy did something a little bit different this year.You do need a webcam though. Not got one? Here's a sneak peak:
DigitasLBi has unveiled the enigmatic Kiltman (half man, half kilt, if you couldn't tell).Created by the Edinburgh team, apparently 'only the strongest are immune to his provocative charms and ginger good looks'. Crikey.
Designed and built by web development agency Forrk.co.uk, the SocialSanta app by A Social Media Agency analyses a selection of any user’s tweets to see how many swear words they have used, and then gives a ‘naughty or nice’ result.
Deutsch NY has come up with an interesting way to make sure people don't get separation anxiety from the agency over Christmas - by giving them the chance to build their own toys.
Collective London has decided to try and make a Christmas miracle happen, by offering its first 100 Twitter followers to tweet #XmasMiracle a Scratch Card Vine Video from Collective. Once revealed (by Father Scratchmas), any winning scratch card amounts will be donated to Collective's sponsored charity, Rainbows Hospice, with winning tweeters receiving a lucky 'Gold Chinese Money Cat'.
Five by Five offered the public the chance to receive their very own personalised Chrsitmas jumper by tweeting a slogan with the hashtag #fbftwitknit.The company also sent out some jumpers, with The Drum's very own Stephen Lepitak receiving a jumper that says 'Twerking around the Christmas tree'. We expect him to wear it on Christmas day.
Specialist design contractors Syntec sent plasticine to some of London’s most creative design and architecture studios and asked for a Christmas-related design in return.The responses came in photographic, gif and video form, with some of the entries seen above.The winners were presented with a trophy made out of – what else? – plasticine.
Ferrier Pearce has unveiled a campaign for those who either don't know what to get people for Christmas or have, erm, left the shopping a bit too late.The campaign then creates a 'letter from Santa'.
Stickyeyes is making people work to find their Christmas message: users have to put words of Christmas songs in the right order in order to reveal the message.Think Simon Says.
Jaywing has unveiled a Naughty or Nice tester for Facebook, which warns 'Facebook profiles will be scrutinised by adults dressed as elves, but no personally identifiable data will be harmed or stored in the process'.The oddest disclaimer of the year.
