HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

"Gillette had come to us saying they wanted something new, cool, engaging," says Stacey Vollman, general manager of Sports Illustrated's Web site, si.com. "The engagement metric was the thing that made us think of this video mashup idea." The Swimsuit Issue, Vollman says, is some of Sports Illustrated's most engaging content. The video campaign by MediaVest aimed for YouTube-style interaction and creativity, but with enough control over the outcome that the Sports Illustrated and Gillette brands would be protected. The end result was a microsite housed on SI.com, sponsored by Gillette and stocked with video footage of Swimsuit models like Selita Ebanks, Bar Rafaeli and Jessica Gomes, music created just for the campaign, and custom video-editing tools designed to be intuitive. Users created video mashups of the models and sent them to friends, posted them on blogs and attached them to their Facebook profiles via a branded application. http://www.mediapost.com/publications/?fa=...p;art_aid=97494

FLORENCE, ITALY — Famed fashion photographer, Raphael Mazzucco, kept Italy waiting at a celebration in honor of his new limited edition coffee table book, The Collected Art, hosted by celebrity art dealer, Andy Valmorbida. Mazzucco was unable to attend the rendezvous as he was shooting Bar Rafaeli for Sports Illustrated in the Grenadines. Guests at the Palazzo Corsini in Florence for the exclusive dinner included Margherita Missoni, Eugenie Niarchos, Francesca Versace, Laura Gucci, Leonardo Ferragamo, Dasha Zhukova (girlfriend of Roman Abramovich) and Fawaz Gruosi (owner of de Grisogono). http://www.newyorksocialdiary.com/node/125920
