To coincide with the back-to-school period, Tipp-Ex, has just lauched a YouTube campaign which allows users to interact with a film that features a hunter camped out in the woods and an amusingly unrealistic bear...
The film – created by Parisian agency Buzzman – starts like any YouTube film - but just as the hunter character is about to shoot the bear which is snuffling around by his campsite, users get to choose whether or not he does, in fact, shoot the bear.
From here on in (well, after a rather nifty bit where the hunter interacts with the Tipp-Ex banner to the right of the film) the film is interactive in a way that is reminiscent of Burger King's hugely impressive Subservient Chicken campaign from 2004. Viewers can type in almost any request into the blank in this sentence: A hunter ______ a bear.
Simply type in something in the blank and watch the results. Here are some stills from some of the stuff we typed in
Have a go (simply play the film below to get started) - but be warned it's hugely addictive. And definitely make "cuddles" your first command:
The Scallop Lamp takes obvious inspiration from sea shells and is quite an interesting design. Besides being a floor lamp for ornamental purposes, it doubles up as a flashlight! The top projection detaches to become the handy torch during lights-out. Now that’s what I call really clever designing! It looks chic, has dual purpose and makes total sense!

House 6 comes from Studio MK27 and it is an impressive architecture project located in São Paulo, Brazil. Meant to redefine the traditional veranda area, this house is composed of two impressive rectangular building entities joined together at different ends. This way they form a charming home outdoor gallery beneath which serves as an entertainment space for the people inside. The stacked volumes are also a very original way to separate the levels of the residence. This house is as beautiful looking as it is diverse. The first floor- the one connected directly to the outdoor pool- houses the living, kitchen and dining space. Large windows provide a good relationship with the exterior and soothing views. The second floor hosts a kitchen extension, a bar and a beautiful entertainment room (the one with the TV in the photos below). How’s this for a showcase of contemporary living?
V-tape is a cellotape design that dispenses itself! A clear-cut solution to the problem of finding the tape plus cutting it…can’t get simpler than this! My only issue with the design is that you can’t really tear out smaller than the V – point tape-length. It will have to be one or more roll-lengths and this can get wasteful. Using a scissor will defeat the purpose of this design! Quite a paradox eh!
