“The Signal” Viral Campaign Locates New Clips And Images Michael Lee, May 8, 2014May 8, 2014 The Signal is perhaps one of the more interesting viral marketing campaigns we have come across due to the fact that it is not one we would see unless it came from a blockbuster tentpole film. The premise of the William Eubank-directed sci-fi thriller certainly lends itself to have a viral marketing campaign, three college students are lured into the middle of a desert by a hacker, only to find themselves in the hands of the government.Our first encounter with The Signal’s viral campaign led us to RUAGITATED.com.
