Fest Ads in Print
Picked up this morning's Village Voice, and got to see the first of the Machinima fest print ads in place (pg. 62). Looking pretty snazzy...
The ad creative is similar to the ones we did in 2003, though the copy is a bit different (and we like much more so). Kudos to Asaf Ronen who never fails to impress me with his intellect and wit.
Btw, the Serious Games Summit was a blast yesterday! Mucho kudos to Ben Sawyer and Serious Games folks for putting a top-notch event. Can't blog too deeply about it right now, but hopefully at a later date when I don't have so much on my plate.

1.) That ad is awesome. Love it!
2.) Wish I'd realized sooner that you were going down to Serious Games. I could've offered you some crashspace and a car, or something. I still own a house in MD.
A very hip ad that's right to the point. Bravo! I'd change "Spielberg" to "Godard" or "Casavettes" which is much more in line with the indie spirt of machinima.
It is a great ad that gets the point across perfectly ... but gtoon, I think the choice of Spielberg is very much on the mark. Although he's obviously a mainstream success, his movies definitely have the feel of a kid having fun playing around with a camcorder; many of his adult movies retain that sort of youthful innocence. For instance, Close Encounters of the Third Kind is based on a feature-length movie called Firelight—which he made at age 16, with a budget of a few hundred bucks.
