Creepy Old Spice Video Ad Wins “Worst Video Ad of 2008” Award
ByNalts
A Pegasus-like horse-plus-man guy is hanging out in the shower talking about how he’s two things at once. It’s a creepy video ad, topped only by a creepier website that loops his voice. I present you with the “double-impact” campaign for Old Spice’s Red Zone Body Wash Moisturizer. It’s based on the laziest marketing proposition…
Mint & Treats Cereal Spoof (from 1980s)
ByNalts
In moving over my Google Video clips to YouTube I ran into this retro commercial spoof. Like “Woodblock Doll,” it’s another commercial parody. That was pretty much the first 10 years of my video shorts: either commercial parodies or mock horror videos (ala “Attack of the Killer Slinky“). While cleaning up my dad’s office this…
How Special Interests Are Embracing Online Video

Even the niche interest groups are looking at online video. Jim’s blog on bikingdiscusses how to use online video to enhance the community of bicycling. Jim’s a friend, and I have no idea about the biking world (except that Tour de France accidents are interesting to watch on video). But he’s performed in a number…
Bridal Dog Wins Costume Contest at Readers Digest
ByNalts
Isn’t it true that the hard videos are never as popular as the easy ones. This video of Rusty and Triscuit (pets of babysitter of nalts) was viewed nearly 700,000 times on Yahoo Video. But my more recent video, “Confessions” was far more complicated, and has been seen 25K views. Well congratulations, sweet Rusty. You…
Are YouTube Creators Dependent? No and Yes.
ByNalts
On the anniversary of America’s Declaration of Independence from England, it’s a fitting time to ask a question about the relationship between YouTube “independent” stars and their country called YouTube. Are we an independent lot? Certainly… we create our own content without taxes or oppression. In fact we have just two “laws” that are, in…
EepyBird Creates New Genre of Hyper Syndication?
ByNalts
The EepyBird duo shows that if you have enough talent, you can move seamlessly from one major promotion to another — without anything particularly unique between. Fritz Grobe and Stephen Voltz are the mad scientists behind EepyBird, a physical theater company exploring how everyday objects can do extraordinary things. They’re the Michael Jordan and Tiger…

Nalts, you and your family are like a smiling piece of Americana for the 21st Century.
By the way, editing and videos keep getting tighter and tighter. 🙂 YAY!
The absolute funniest part of this is the fact that your family thinks farts are a normal form of communication.
@ ass- Farts aren’t a normal forms of communication?
If I were wifeofnalts I would be smacking you upside the head about 10 times a day.
this is no competition to my new sport, Head Bang Ball. It’s way too complicated to explain what it is, though.
Actually, if I ever felt like filming it, I have a script upstairs for a video about Head Bang Ball. It would probably just be really long and boring, though. Tissues in the Wind wins.
now that’s what I call cheap easy fun!
You know I should just stick with posts like this. The comments are far more entertaining than when I write about the industry for an audience of about 3 people.
Love your PJs, Nalts. The girdle looks so good on you, too.
Also, I’m with sukatra. Do you medicate WoN? Is that why she is always so calm, smiling and tolerant in the face of your pranks and flights of fancy?
We read the industry stuff too!
@9: YOU may; I just skip that stuff unless there are pictures too.
