  • Virtual Advertising
    18-551 Spring 2000 Group 5 Dallas Baker Jen Deroy Kevin Gotze Virtual Advertising Final Report PROBLEM Advertising is an increasingly important industry in the modern media-driven world, and as technology evolves, it helps advertisers reach their target audience in more and more ways. Ads pop up on Web sites, through sponsorships, and on digital billboards, all to maximize visibility of a company or product. As it is, there is still plenty of wasted advertising, and we feel with the help of technology we can solve one particular problem. Sporting events are broadcasted nationally, yet the ads in the stadium are often oriented to the local market. For example, a Broncos/Steelers game at Mile High Stadium may have ads for a Denver based company, which the fans in Pittsburgh watching on TV are unable to access or benefit from. Or possibly, a Pepsi sponsored event takes place in a stadium in which there are Coca-Cola ads. This sort of counter- productive advertising could easily be remedied with the help of video signal processing. Now that efficient means of implementing this particular technology are available to us, we can superimpose our preferred ads over unwanted ads, like in the case of a CBS broadcast at Times Square. CBS superimposed a CBS logo atop the NBC logo that is on the Times Square TV. THE SOLUTION By digitally altering video footage we overlaid our own ÔGroup 5Õ ad over a Budweiser ad to demonstrate how we could diversify advertising, making the ad more efficient and effective. Given the original ad, we used color information to find the area of the ad in each frame, then superimposed our ad atop of it.

    NOVITA PR NEOCON 2021 BROADER DESIGN PITCH Update May 12: We wanted to send along an update on our NeoCon pitch plan. We’ve had great calls with several NeoCon manufacturers to get their take and are also using them as a resource for supporting collateral. Overall, we’ve received a lot of great positive feedback and have developed relevant, timely angles. The manufacturers we’ve been speaking to have given us the most feedback and strongest insight into the workplace category. Because of this and given that “return to workplace” stories are getting a lot of traction right now, we’ve been focusing on our long-lead, broadcast pitches around that vertical and around the first pitch listed farther down below (“Employee Expectations Have Changed: How the $12.83 Billion Commercial Interiors Industry is Designing for Mental Health, Inclusivity and More). In addition, we’ve been monitoring recent stories around the subject and we’re directly responding to these. Below are the recent pitches. We will be pitching the other angles in the upcoming weeks, as well as print + digital, and are reaching out to gather more intel on the other verticals so we can properly target those. We can provide more updates as we go.

  • THE COLOR of NEWS: How Different Media Have Covered the General Election
    THE COLOR OF NEWS: How Different Media Have Covered the General Election When it comes to coverage of the campaign for president 2008, where one goes for news makes a difference, according to a new study. In cable, the evidence firmly suggests there now really is an ideological divide between two of the three channels, at least in their coverage of the campaign. Things look much better for Barack Obama—and much worse for John McCain—on MSNBC than in most other news outlets. On the Fox News Channel, the coverage of the presidential candidates is something of a mirror image of that seen on MSNBC. The tone of CNN’s coverage, meanwhile, lay somewhere in the middle of the cable spectrum, and was generally more negative than the press overall. On the evening newscasts of the three traditional networks, in contrast, there is no such ideological split. Indeed, on the nightly newscasts of ABC, CBS and NBC, coverage tends to be more neutral and generally less negative than elsewhere. On the network morning shows, Sarah Palin is a bigger story than she is in the media generally. And on NBC News programs, there was no reflection of the tendency of its cable sibling MSNBC toward more favorable coverage of Democrats and more negative of Republicans than the norm. Online, meanwhile, polling tended to drive the news. And on the front pages of newspapers, which often have the day-after story, things look tougher for John McCain than they tend to in the media overall. 1 These are some of the findings of the study, which examined 2,412 stories from 48 outlets during the time period from September 8 to October 16.1 The report is a companion to a study released October 22 about the tone of coverage overall.
