Emphatic Yes

ByNalts October 31, 2006

A noteworthy viral video creator. He’s Emphatic Yes, and Carson Daly says he “just can’t get enough.” I agree.

My favorite: The conscience pays a visit… crashing on the couch, swilling beer.

Contests That Require Registration to Vote

ByNalts August 7, 2007

Ahhh the video contest. Is it a way to engage creators, or for marketers to do “lead gen” (snatch the e-mail address of creators’ friends)? I understand why contests require registration for rating — we wouldn’t want a “Chicago” style election. At the same time, these “one-off” contest websites are maddening. For example, here’s a…

Kyle from Southpark puts it well in this 30-second clip from “Canada on Strike.” The clip’s called “The Promise of Future Revenue.” Thanks to Jan for finding it. Boy I’m sure glad that’s over with. Me too. Yeah, but you know I learned something today. We thought we could make money on the Internet. But…

Benefit of User-Testing Viral Videos

ByNalts January 26, 2007

I hope this video demonstrates the power of user-testing viral videos to ensure they’re funny before launch. It’s the difference between being a viral-video creator and a viral videologist. Our method was simple. The moderator had individual subjects review the videos, and we observe their responses behind a two-way glass. Laughter was recorded, and viewers…
