[ 0:59 - from YouTube ]
This video is Part of Volkswagen's "See Film Differently" campaign to promote the brand's support of independent film; it celebrates the religion of Dudeism and the film The Big Lebowski. I think this is a great approach to the marketing of products through integrated advertising and product placement in online videos. It made me feel good about Volkswagen, Independent Film and more importantly the religion of Dudeism. "If we all lived a little bit more like "The Dude," if we all brought more "Dude" into our lives, the world would be a better place."
