Duck Tape Goes Stop-Motion
Duck Tape has a slight branding problem: far too many people assume it’s just an odd malapropism of “duct tape.” So it’s great to see the company standing out online, with the results of the Stuck on Duck video project. Web video creators were tasked with creating the coolest ads for Duck Tape with a $10,000 prize pool on the line, and they came up with some glorious results.
The winner is Duck Tron, a fantastic stop-motion video that plays off the whole Tron light-cycle thing. Aside from making a slick video that references a hot property, the creators brought in a web celebrity: Jay Maynard, the Tron Guy.
If this one’s just a bit too geeky for your tastes, swing by the contest side and check out the other winners. If nothing else, they show of some great DIY ideas for Duck Tape fans.
