If Mihaela Radulescu is on Twitter…

May 30th, 2008 by deedeecus

This morning I had a very short chat on Twitter with @miradulescu. What do you know…

It was a very bold move on her part to enter this little world and a clear-cut differentiation from the rest of the local stars who started personal blogs (Andreea Raicu, Tudor Chirila, Andreea Marin etc.) Probably most of the public opinion expected her to start a blog since she’s already writing a popular column in Romanian ELLE Magazine. She didn’t.

For now I like her twitts, she writes with passion (if you can imagine that in 140 characters) and a clear mark of a strong personality. She twitts about her work, her likes and dislikes… like the rest of us :)

I’m curious to see how she’ll handle “the noise”.

Who is Mihaela Radulescu? Official website. English short bio. A relevent article title about her from AdPlayers: M. Radulescu earns about $1 million a year from advertising. I think a more appropriate term would be brand endorsement.

And my favourite twitt of hers for the day here (RO)

Wonder why Zoso didn’t write about this…

Romania finally discovered EMOs

May 15th, 2008 by deedeecus

The “hot” topic around here these days is the emo trend. The debate (tv, blogs etc.) started with an unfortunate news about a 12 year old little girl which I refuse to further detail here.

I discovered “emos” the beginning of last year. I saw a little 11 year old girl’s profile and then her friends’ profiles … I was amazed and instantly picked up the phone and called my little sister (she was 16 then):

“Hey you”

“Hey”

“Are you emo?”

LOL. Emos are loosers. The kids around here are starting to be emo, but not us.” :)

“So you know what an emo is! Wait a minute! Kids?? You’re a kid!”

“Of course I know… Kids as in 10-14 yrs old. I don’t agree with the bisexual part. I do like Tokio Hotel though. I think the twins are cute”

Pfew!

That’s how I got to google Tokio Hotel and thought the twins were a girl and a boy. They were both boys…

Then I started talking to all my friends with little bros and sisters and they started calling all their siblings. It was good. No harm done upon our loved ones :) Now, everyone is wondering what is an emo and how one ends up an emo… it’s been going on for years!!! Only now you notice??

I’m not gonna start talking about how I was at 12-13 years old.

All I’m sayin is that if my future kid comes home with a lock of hair all over his face I’ll give him a good reason to cover his face! Want depression? I’ll show you depression! … before you go and do smth like this .

“Anti-social” TV campaign censored

May 9th, 2008 by deedeecus

It was all over the news and internet these last few days: CNA, National Audiovisual Council of Romania, banned the airing of the below social TV spot on the grounds of it being “anti-social” and tied to the election campaign nowadays in Romania. 

I chose to share it with you because I simply love it: the idea, the execution and most of all THE SOUNDTRACK!

The spot includes clear-cut references to communism through

  • the music chosen,
  • the image of Romania’s last communist leader, Ceausescu and
  • the representation of the masses bowing in front of the leader.  

The shocking part is when all Romanian presidents since Ceausescu are showed, Iliescu, Constantinescu and Basescu, culminating with the end statement :

“Coose your masters carefully”

Remarkable is also the fact the the movie is made completely in-house by the TV station that aired the campaign, Antena3.

I know that usually TV station internalise most or all marketing activities. This is just another example of good work from a good marketing team.
