Y’all remember that ‘consciousness-raising’ campaign MGM Resorts International<\/strong> announced on behalf of Aria<\/strong>, earlier this week. The first in a six-part series of videos, The Reveal<\/em>, went live late this afternoon. Subsequent blipverts will include The Motive<\/em> and Entrapment<\/em>.
