The "slick" feeling is a hint. But the "smoking gun" was the CAA address. LOL Talk about creative......and drawn out. Yet another brilliant piece of digital age "anticipation marketing'

Quick correction: Its on YOUTUBE but pimped via MYSPACE and other social network sites.

Very interesting read! Amazing what companies are using these days to create a buzz.

Bump for all the creative marketers out there.

Interesting... thanks for the link :thumbsup

You always seem to be right ontop of the latest and most creative pieces that crop up.

Nice that you share them :)

thanks for link $5

thanks for the link gene

Nice read....

I love reading about viral marketing like this.
WG

pretty cool stuff for sure.
I mean like the article said, it worked for Blair Witch..hell it worked for Snakes on a Plane too..

MYspace marketing suck

Lol, "Lonelygirl15", is there any screen name that screams out "fake" and "spam" more than this?

hehheeheh :winkwink:

She's hot

When they discard her, some sponsor should sign her. She would be a money making machine.

The second video gave it away. The editing is just too slick for that to be a real 'amateur' user-submitted vid. Much better editing than that "Ask a Ninja" series lol.

nice, i knew it was fake the first time i saw them. the editing/effects and subject matter were to good for an amateur 16 yo. It reminded me of good music video.

Here's an update on all this: http://www.latimes.com/entertainment...-entertainment

The creators make an "admission"...well, sort of.

you just ruined my day.. This is like finding out the Easter Bunny isn't real.

I have been following her for a while. I don't think the slick video editing gives it away. There are many amateur videobloggers whose editing skills extend far beyond the average.

but yeah..er thanks :Oh crap

confirmed..see the video https://youtube.com/watch?v=et24KNCbkF0

Saavy!!!

Thanks for the article. It will be interesting to see where it all leads?

Latest update on it: No big studio, no pre-movie suspense, it's actually an exploration into "interactive storytelling" http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la...iewed-homepage

At this point, I wouldn't be surprised AT ALL if it indeed gets picked up by a studio. :)

Awesome read.
