I see it more of an opportunity .
I count at least 8 product placements in this video.
Brands that traditionally would never been seen along side of this type of entertainment.

And your right Cleo its a stunning video... I think its pretty damn ingenious.
The colors and lighting remind me of the same type of display that you cant take your eyes off of because its so surreal.

Ive seen the same type of technique used for everything from Pee Wees playhouse down to some killer video podcasts. Its obvious that TV kept my attention when I was young because when something thats presented in this lighting with the bright colors then I am always distracted.

Its funny that you mention Madonna though ... shes certainly upped the ante.

I found this video over the weekend on facebook where they were talking about all the evil that exists in this world. Still none of the puritans can take their eyes off of it either.

Where they are drawn in by the flesh and prison girls its the colors that have me watching it.
