Meet the Beckers
Getting the Bird
Comedy (Broad), Other Gems (Branded Entertainment)
[ 2:00 - from YouTube ]
Nearly every brand is trying to crack the branded entertainment nut these days, and there's been a few gems that have come out those efforts, like this web series, 'Meet the Beckers,' developed by Audi. There's always been fierce competition between Audi, BMW and Mercedes in the luxury vehicle market, and this comically depicts that, showing the overly eccentric yuppies and otherwise pretentious members of the Becker family driving rival cars. The star of the show is well-groomed, has a beautiful girlfriend and, you guessed it, drives an Audi. Hey, I said it was funny. I didn't say it wasn't heavy handed.
