Interactive Commercial Utilizes Tivo Features

scrow writes "Marketing officers at Kentucky Fried Chicken's Yum! Brands Inc. have developed a commercial containing a hidden message for the viewers to find using their DVR systems. The aim is to combat the use of DVR devices, like Tivo, to skip advertising by introducing interactivity."

Can someone please post the code?

Slowing them down not only makes them more annoying, but it also ensures that your message DOES NOT get across. What is advertising? It's a carefully planned message-in-motion at approximately 15-60fps. Having someone step through it frame-by-frame to look for a coupon does *NOT* make them recepients of your message. If they wanted to capture someone's attention they should just throw up the coupon, and freeze there for the whole 15-30 second spot. Static image. Can you imagine? People would be going nuts trying to figure out if their TV was broken. :p

Firefly... subtle?

You blatantly conform. You disguise your insecurity poorly. You use geek buzzwords and memes:

-tivo (+2)
-Firefly (+5, level up)
-borrowed but intend to buy (+1)
-hate commercials (+1)
-rarely watch television (+2)

Your SN smacks of idolatry and has homoerotic subtext. You're barely holding it together. You're an elitist who uses money to compensate for his small penis. Hence the Mercedes.
