Dorito’s just released a very cool campaign, The rise & fall of Esteban Ortega, The Dip Desperado. Meet Esteban Ortega, the local champion with throwing chips. The campaign includes the movie, twitter and a game (that can be played on Facebook, Iphone or Android).

The video is very well made, very imaginative and funny story and very well casted. A perfect example of a brand using entertaining content to connect with their customers. Point of criticism: dont like the ending. The packshot drags me out of the story and moreover, theres no resolution or climax. I would have made it a short film all the way to the end and just end with a link to the game. The game is a stand-alone piece and does not link to the story of the movie, at least not in a sense that it picks up where the story ends.

Nielsen reported the Super Bowl reached 98.7 million viewers. Not too bad.
