Dramatic Prairie Dog: The reason why “Dramatic Prairie Dog” became an instant hit despite the fact it may be the shortest viral video ever existed on planet earth was because it presents a perfect moment of pastiche. The flashing zoom-in, the camera angle and the music paired up with the most random subject you can ever think of - a prairie dog (WTF?!) altogether provoke an odd yet, amusing sensations among viewers. It’s odd because nothing like this ever existed before. It’s amusing because it borrows something that the viewers are familiar with: the dramatic music and the enlargement of the characters eyes, and put it under a new contexts. Prairie Dog is like a shot taken from “Kill Bill” (a series that adopts a variety of different film genres, namely, Kungfu, Japanese Anime, Western and many more). The video does not have a plot or dialogue. Its sole purpose is to engage viewers to experience the overwhelming moment of randomness. The Creepy Ninja By Gabriella Guo Although Ninjas are as notorious as Zombies and Vampires, there hasn’t been any Ninja related memes on the Internet other than “Pirates vs Ninjas” that is already becoming an antique. The goal of this viral video is to resume the pride and glory of the death-defying Ninjas. It strives to achieve the following three goals: 1. Inform the world of the awesome power Ninjas have 2. Educate those who have made 3. Convey the message that wherever you go, Big Ninja Bros are WATCHING YOU! The video is a compilation of different footage portraying the ordinary daily life dilemmas or mistakes one might be involved, such as, parking at the accessibility slots, contemplating whether one should wear a condom for the imminent sex… the only difference is that, by the end of each segment, the Ninja bro will randomly appear out of nowhere and pass judgment on the person’s acts. If the person has made the right decision, Ninja bro would toss him a silent nod. If not, the person might get pwned as he watches Ninja bro charging toward him while brandishing his Ninja sword. I can think of several derivatives if the video goes viral; incorporations of the Big Ninja Bro within Demotivational posters, Don’t Drink and drive ad campaign as well as other parodies that make fun of mainstream educational lobbies.
