Funny commercial - my first attempt to create viral ad.
Creating a viral video is nearly impossible, with all the brightest minds in the world working on it, no one has yet has cracked this tough nut.
While there are some elements that such videos have like, it has to be funny, or people have to connect with it on a personal level, or it has to have elements of nostalgia, no one can guarantee that a video with such elements will go viral.
And even when it does not, working on such a project while having complete creative freedom and getting paid for it is awesome. Just one of the perks being a freelancer.
Idea for this short clip is that you should choose a mineral water that is stronger. For some legal threats i can not disclose full plot, it kind of has to be guessed, and it is much more easier for local Lithuanians who know the market and current brands :)
Please enjoy and have a laugh if you will :) Cheers.

hi @bescouted
really nice! but did you study marketing? And don't you know if there are elements for which some videos become viral?
congratulations and thanks for sharing with us!
I did, but at that time when i was studying there was probably no such thing as viral videos lol There is a ton of youtube videos about viral videos, and i am sure loads of other information. But the thing is that no one can really always make a viral video on purpose. If any at all.

Lifestyle probably lol
Awesome man and funny as well. You should put a link of your steemit profile under your youtube link :)
Damn it. Really simple and great idea, it's wonderful how we do not think of such things ourselves.
This is indeed funny. It is of that level of getting viral, but I think its random luck with those that go viral
Or may be a promotional hit in the beginning to make it viral.
Yeah there are many reasons videos go viral, but none of them guarantee vitality. It's a magic unicorn :)

That last shot really packs a great punch in the comedic timing of this short lol I really like the big contrast of the two forces and how the unlikely one overcomes the most obvious one, I hope the gods of randomness really make this video viral as you wish, thanks for sharing!

Nice creation @bescouted! Congrats!
It is indeed not very easy to create a viral ad. I must say sometimes I am quite surprised how brilliant commercials can be. You have very nice start now ;) Keep up the good work!
I can see elements in this that are good and you have a good base to work from. I think the ones that go viral probably aren't expecting to go viral.It is a lot harder than it looks and you need to come up with a unique concept.Keep trying and you never know.
Hello @bescouted! Watching the video I was wondering how is going to end. It made me laugh, I must admit. I believe you did a good job with it, so I guess congratulations are in order. Well done!
