You might have seen BBH's waterslide ad for Barclays Bank. The digital counterpart to this is a youtube film competition to remake this ad. Friends of mine had a go their entry's called the Body waterslide, it's quite charming. If you agree give them your vote, they'd love to win the price – a world waterslide tour.
Looking through the entries there's another one that I find nice, the 8BIT waterslide version.

Better than the real ad!
8Bit waterslide is by far the best.
Wal, are your friends going to share the 10K with you if they win?

The body one is pretty rubbish tbh. Though that 8BIT is very interesting. Like that.
The execution is good. The idea? I'm not convinced, they have tried the "sex sells" route, which is becoming rather old hat & tired. Not even Fallon could pull it off.
Bouncer.
I like your mates entry but the 8bit one is really good and some nice little bits like the hyper slide and loosing his pants makes it alot more interesting than this one. For me, Maybe if your mates one was pushed abit more it would have been on the same level as 8bit
Do you get even more points/money if you can explain how the idea relates to the reality of using the product?
Or more prizes/trophies for getting people to remember that it's for Barclaycard?
Or more pennies/kudos for saying what the product is and how it can help?
Clearly, I lose for being such a kill joy and bitching about an enjoyable ad. But do you know what I mean?
PS. Like the comp. But again, it's got more to do with the ad than the product, no? Aren't loads of creatives going to get involved, whilst Barclaycard's target audience are left shivering without a towel to dry themselves after a cold London waterslide?
Hey chaps - I made an entry for the competition too - it's called 'Fish Goes Watersliding'. Do check it out and if you like, give it a little vote. Thanks!
hey guys, don't forget about the large particle accelerator slide!
it is GOOOOOD
it is AQUAWESOME!
