Jib Jab hasn’t completely cornered the market on animations with people’s faces stuck on them, as BNZ Bank clearly shows in its latest Kiwisaver campaign on Facebook.
The ‘Work Til I Die’ Flash-based Facebook app lets users put their friends’ faces on an animated marionette, as it dances along to the tune of BNZ’s new Kiwisaver jingle (which has come under considerable fire from StopPress readers for being similar to Melbourne Metro’s Dumb Ways To Die song).
The grand message of the app is if you don’t sort out your superannuation now, you’re doomed to dance the employment-jig until you’re in the grave.
