[META STALKING] the commercial video on the SLUSHO page
concerning the commercial, not the contest

I found this post made by kosmopol:

[...]
My buddy Andy put together a truly bizarre commercial intended to be part of the viral video campaign for the forthcoming movie "Cloverfield". He just got featured on Harry Knowles' Aint It Cool News site[...]'

he found the above quote on this page: http://www.pjk.net/?p=103


i made a little research.

found the blogger from the pjk.net page on facebook--> checked his friends on facebook-->found his buddy andy--> came to a webpage of this andy. I think he could be involved in the making of the commercial. there is a portfolio album of him on his homepage:

www.mrjonez.com

going on: some of andy's friends on facebook are:

All looks fairly standard. Mickey Worsnup seems to have been a production assistant on a few things here and there. Tried "worsnup", "mworsnup", "mickeyworsnup", "m.worsnup", "mickey.worsnup" and "mickey_worsnup" as logins for the remote client, but nada.


=connection to viral marketing.
=connection to the commercial: the facebook picture looks like the ape from the video. from another angle but lights are similar.



Edit: Now you're speakin' my language. Sweeet. Tagged. -SpaceBass

Pretty good detective work there. From his demo reel I'd say this guy could have pulled of the commercial.

Wow, PJK pulled the article off the blog already.

Wow Joshy, great work!

Btw, in his mov-video I've found two Mooses, "The Moose" and "Russ the moose". Pure coincidence. ("Russ the Moose" is a DJ, as far as I know).



But Mickey Worsnup is also at IMDb: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0941640/

Btw, on this screenshot, "Russian poet Andri Vozneskensy (sic!)" is "Andrey Voznesenski", very good modern Russiam poet, I like his strange lyrics.

Yet more evidence that this "ARG" wasn't meant to be this big and has overwhelmed the PMs, maybe not even meant to be a game.

i checked many facebook accounts. also checked the names in the internet. many designers, PR, media people.
i guess it goes like this: some material like pictures, raw video material for the commercial, pictures, get handed over to the marketing team with directions like put this in the vid, put that in the vid.
so maybe even there is a small team for each homepage (slusho, tagruato, and they try to imagine to make a companies homepage. they design and do not know more about the movie then we know.

mickey worsnup disabled the access to his friends and the chimpanzee is gone, wow!

Yeah, they are online all the time Smile
But it's really like you say, it's like NASA: everybody makes a little detail, and nobody knows what is this for in the whole dimension.

Yep, you can see what looks to be the faded out camera in the chimp's hands at the bottom of the flagpole.

I'm thinking it's more of a personal signature of the guy who made it rather than a clue.
