Canal Digital has a video on demand service with more movies than ever, or that’s what they claim at least. They even took their slogan ‘We bring the movies to you’ pretty literal in this commercial. A man’s life always turns into scenes from a movie, sometimes it is pretty awesome but it can be very annoying as well. The execution of this commercial is simply brilliant.

Volkswagen Norway offered the very first test-drive, inside a print ad. The ad was placed in several Norwegian magazines and papers, presenting a long stretch of a road. Readers had to download an app, that would let them test-drive a Volkswagen by hovering your iPhone over it. You can test three different features of the vehicle—lane assist, adaptive lights and cruise control.

Fretex is a second hand clothing chain operated by the Salvation Army. The coming collection of Fretex are the clothes people are wearing today. To promote Fretex they installed a fashion runway at a central subway exit and used the passengers as their models during Oslo Fashion Week. The “models” received gift cards and were encouraged to support Fretex by donating clothes. Probably not everyone will like it but a stunt like this is worth the risk.
