Online-Video Marketing That… Doesn’t Feel Like Advertising

GE launched a health campaign today on YouTube that is part of trend toward softer advertising that, I believe, will have better long-term dividends even if it’s hard to measure. GE is taking a lightly branded approach to promoting health and wellness by sponsoring a “Healthymagination” challenge among people on YouTube. There’s very subtle branding…

I have to think Dali would have approved – especially since some of these images were direct homages. (Woman whose feet are melting into the floor, tray is bending over the edge of table.) If you’ve ever tried to use Photoshop, you know this stuff takes a lot of skill, and I don’t think it’s a stretch to call it “fine art.”
@1: I agree, Dahlia. I have taken some Photoshop classes, and it is NOT an easy skill to master. What I did in my classes was so elementary compared to these. They are astounding! I particularly like the twisted road, and agree that the melting woman one was a direct homage to Dali.
