You’re wandering through Disneyland, having a great time with your family, meeting the characters and you see this Alice Through the Looking Glass Digital display. Cycling through the characters in the latest installment of the series. Then one of them starts moving. And talking. And even saying your name! This magic is because they had Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter live streaming direct to the display! Allowing Disneyland guests to interact with the actual Mad Hatter! It makes me wish I’d been in Disneyland that day!

Misereor: Social Swipe
Ever wanted to donate to charity but had no cash or change? No problem! Advertising agency Kolle-Rebbe have solved your predicament! Now you can swipe your credit card on this interactive advertisement and donate with a simple swipe. The video that plays once swiped is very pleasing and gives you a sense of actually doing more than just swiping your card – would have liked to see more versions though as there was only the two videos shown. Over 3000 Euros were made during the first month.
Reebok: ZPump 2.0 Speed Cam
Could you run fast enough to win yourself a new pair of shoes from Reebok?

Jaguar: Not-so Virtual Reality

Heineken: The Jonah Lomu Machine
Heineken invited local fans to a special night out and placed a prize machine in the corner. Dispensing signed footballs by Jonah Lomu. What I like about it is the clues that he gives that he can see them, but none are quite sure what to make of it!
I don’t know my rugby. At all. I’m not going to lie. But I imagine this guy to be as famous as footballers are to football fans I bet it’s a big deal he was hiding out in a machine in their local pub!

Other great Heineken campaigns include Departure Roulette and Heineken Passport
