Viral Adverts for MyKeys.co.uk
If you've not heard of viral adverts before then don't worry - they have nothing to do with computer viruses. They are simply short videos that are usually funny or take a swipe at people we love to hate etc. This makes people want to share them with their friends ... who pass them on to their friends, etc (hence the name 'viral' adverts).
So take a look below and let us know your favourite by registering your vote. To avoid repetition voting you can only vote for each particular video once every 3 hours but you can view all of them and score each video at each visit.
We'll be sending some of these adverts out via email at some point so really appreciate your help in choosing the best ones. Click on the link under each individual video thumbnail to view the full viral advert. Please rate each video 1 to 10.

Background
In March 2007 MyKeys.co.uk sponsored a project within the Media Studies Department of South Cheshire College. As part of their coursework the students have to make a short film and this year, to make it more realistic, they were tasked with making those films for a real client .... us.
Our brief was simple - make us a viral advert to the following criteria:
- No more than 30 seconds long.
- Has that 'viral' element that will see it passed on amongst friends and colleagues.
- Conveys the message that you don't need to use an estate agent to effectively sell your house.
It will be no surprise that many of the entries played to peoples perceptions of estate agents! As a bit of fun and a break from the serious
side to our business we have decided to share these videos with our visitors and customers.
