I don't think the private transmissions will have to be confusing.
All it would have to say at the top was "Pt: To the Fans" or "PT: To Jonas". My guess, though, is that it might work out something like the "private" boxes on shows like Big Brother, where the rest of the set can't hear, but all the fans hear everything going on. I'm hoping it won't have exactly that type of feel to it, though. |

First, I agree with those who said they thought the music was playing in
Vegas and not edited in.
Second, I was really surprised that one of them didn't throw up from
running, especially since they were drunk! LOL
Third, Loving DB still!! He's a Cutie!
Forth, great video! I would love to see the water show at that hotel.
I've heard its pretty awesome.
Fifth (haha this is it I swear!) I actually like the idea of private
videos because it gives the characters more freedom to share
information and would probably move the story along more. _________________ A crazy person doesn't really lose his mind, it just becomes something more entertaining-George Carlin |

That having been said, I think the trio was TOO obvious about where they were to REALLY be hiding. They want someone to KNOW that they were in VEGAS, and they want that person/group to THINK that the order has followed them there. The fact that they never show who's chasing them makes me think that they weren't REALLY being chased. They may or may not have REALLY been drunk for that matter.
The real question is: Who was this video for? . . . or for whom was this video????
Bree has lied to her audience before. See "I completed the ceremony" and "Me for Daniel." I LOVE the fact that we can't trust anyone -- even the good guys! It's what makes this medium unique! |
I LOVE this idea. A lot.

Quote: | The creators would tell us if it was advertising.
On their radio show this week, they were taking suggestions re: products that they could go after for ads. "Hotels" was one suggestion, and they said it was a good idea. They did not say anything about having a hotel deal in process.
By contrast, on the gum deal, they asked us months in advance how we felt about product placement, and told us explicitly that a candy placement was coming up.
So:
1) The advertising industry doesn't work that way.
2) The creators don't work that way.
Therefore, there is no logical reason to think that this vid was advertising. |
All very good points, but I'm still sticking to my original opinion; it's an advertisement.
And if it was an ad it served it's purpose. The Bellagio is being talked about, on this board atleast. |

That you stick with your original opinion is fine, but you're not really giving a solid reason for holding it. Just pointing a camera at a building doesn't advertise for it.
Even with that Bellagio sign appearing near the end of the video it doesn't help because it appears for less than a second, and you can only get a non-shaky look at it if you pause the video. The sign also has no obvious connection to the hotel since a viewer who isn't already familiar with the Bellagio isn't going to make the association between a sign (which could have appeared anywhere in Vegas for all they know) and a hotel that Bree was standing in front of (which she neglected to name).
Without the name of the product - or service provider - coming up, there's no product being placed. It's like the candy back in "Truth Or Dare" - that might have been M&M's and it may not. Looked like them, but since nobody said so and no label was identified, it doesn't matter to Mars Inc.
And, really, generating discussion - such as whether product placement occurred at all - about something like this isn't the goal of somebody paying for it, so I can't see how you'd say it achieved its purpose. The goal is to get people to - if nothing else - remember the name, and to hopefully associate it with the product/service. You don't want people to have to think about going on Google and typing in "Las Vegas hotel water show." You want them to think "Let's see... I'm going to Vegas soon... What's a hotel I know there... 'Bellagio'? Oh, yeah... I think it had a water show. I remember that from somewhere."
If only 5% or less of the total audience for the show is going to even be guaranteed to know that was the Bellagio then this would have been a marketing misstep that would make that hotel a laughingstock.
If nothing else, compare to when Ice Breakers was placed: Its name was actually said and the candy's label clearly shown for several seconds. If somebody watched the video - even if they were deaf - then they were guaranteed to know what the product was. |

Bill's across the street had more screen time than Bellagio. Don't worry if there is another commercial it won't be suttle. _________________ "But I don't want to go among mad people," Alice remarked.

I guess any vid in a city would be an advertisement for something, then, right? _________________ You can call me Juli or LLP, whichever suits your fancy.

kiyoshi wrote: | Is it just me or does the scream from Bree after she hauls Jonas on her back sound like a playful "scream"? Because to me, the whole running from someone from The Order seemed completely random and out of nowhere at first. At least Jonas and Daniel are happy/dorky drunks and not angry/abusive drunks.
But I'm continually loving the whole Jonas & Bree thing.
And watching the water show reminds me of the whole fireworks show at Disneyland. *-*
With the music and all. xD |
I thought it was one of those screams where you think you're going to drop the person on your back. It was more of a yelp really.
-sob- I WANNA GO TO DISNEYLAND :'(

I absolutely love your idea. It's one I always sort of have in the back of my mind when I see a video that seems different to me, but it really fits for this one. Welcome to the forums!
