The "Hillary 1984" video has taken over. It's not who made it, or whether Obama wanted it, or whether Hillary is really "1984." It's the power of video to impact instantly - in just a weekend it has had over a million active hits on YouTube. And this is not even a brilliant creative job - compare it to the original here, and see it only changed a few shots. But what power in the message. In 73 seconds.
Anyone can post a video, as ParkRidge47 did on Saturday. A couple of days later, it is a viral explosion, major news on all the local TV News, radio and the front page of the San Francisco Chronicle. And of course all over the internet where it started.
Video compression and the capability of an unknown to make a one minute "film" and have such impact is revolutionary (which I did predict here a couple of months ago.) The revolution has started.
You too can use video to tell a story, embed in PowerPoints, make it your resume, compress and send in emails, elect a President - there is no limit. Use this tool - influence in new ways. More to come...
