Check Out the 15 Biggest Viral Ads of 2013

Brands have always made videos. They used to be called TV commercials. But in the age of YouTube a new genre has emerged, where videos are created more for the internet than for TV, and where sharing and virality are key to success. Some of these videos start out as commercials, but some never run on TV at all. Lately some of these viral videos have started becoming really, really good. Not just good by the standards of a TV commercial, but actually good, with first-rate cinematography and storytelling.

One video on the list below (#14, made in Thailand) is so well done that Gawker said it “puts full-length Hollywood films to shame.” This is all part of a wider trend in which corporate media is getting better than traditional media.
