"THE BEAUTY INSIDE" CASE STUDY
Intel and Toshiba's "The Beauty Inside" - Case Study - by the agency Pereira O'Dell
"The Beauty Inside" is the story of a guy named Alex who wakes up every day as a different person. He is always the same person on the inside, but on the outside, he is somebody else. When he meets Leah and falls in love, everything changes for him. He knows he will see her again, but she will never see him. Because Alex's appearance changed every day, all fans—male or female—were invited to audition for the lead role of Alex.

Pharrell Williams - Happy (Official Music Video)
Music videos are some of the most disposable content around. They're designed to go big, promote album sales and build a brand. This one from Pharrell is still being viewed and shared. But soon enough, it'll go the way of PSY and Gangnam Style.
