You know, when I first saw the outstanding catvertising piece, I said that we should respond by creating a memevertising division. Apparently everyone else was right behind me.
This is pretty good, but the top meme campaign so far (IMHO) is this one by The Hive.

Shell decided to make an online generator to let the public create ads for them.
I believe this is what the kids call an epic fail.

INSTANT EDIT: Apparently this is fake. It’s really some Greenpeace campaign. Meta trolling.
Also, full disclosure: My dad worked for Shell for a billion years.
I always said meme-vertising would have been a good response video to catvertising, but I guess now it’s a real thing.
At least it’s well done and fits the brand. It’s by the Hive, who were featured on an episode of AMC’s The Pitch. Which, as I mentioned on twitter, proves that clients always choose the wrong concept.
