Absolutely Amazing Stuff!

This is such an amazing Guerilla Idea from somewhere in South East Asia. Absolutely great! The work speaks for itself. Does anybody know who's behind this piece of brilliance. VIA

Nazca Mirrors for Natan

One more Guerilla Effort by FCB Nazca for Natan Jewellers. The jewelry was placed as stickers on mirrors so that it appeared as if the person in front looked like she was wearing it. Nice!

Levi's Square Cut Denim


A campaign for Levi's Square Cut Denim. I think the first ad works well but the second ad is a litle weak. Agree?? Does anybody knows the agency involved here?

THERAPIST!!

Grey Delhi in association with the Pioneer Newspaper came up with this press ad that educates people about the problem of Child Abuse. simple & straight to the point. Not to mention, works effectively!

Mirror by EURO RSCG Delhi

A guerilla effort by EURO RSCG Delhi for the CPAA (Cancer Patients Aids Association). Nice work guys!

Feature Rich by EPSON




A series of four ads from EPSON Printers. Each of them dedicated to one different feature of their printers. Nice stuff. Anybody know the agency that did these 4 ads?

Naya Campaign!





Thanks to Dharam Valia from 180 Degree Corp., (a creative hot-shop that offers through-the-line communication solutions) Mumbai for sending in this campaign done for the new and revamped version of Mid-Day! The local favorite news daily from Mumbai
The campaign creatives attempts to capture change through 'slice of life' visuals juxtaposing the change. Take for instance a shot of a young girl walking by a PCO, but is merrily chatting on her cellphone. A line reading "Naya PCO" connects this visual to a shot of the 'Naya' Mid Day. Similarly, "Naya Sachin" captures this change by depicting a bunch of kids religiously cricketing away at Shivaji Park with the batsman donning a Dhoni tee-shirt. "Naya Hollywood" takes a dig at bollywood by candidly projecting a worker installing a hoarding of the 'inspired' movie "Fight Club". The mall mania also finds itself being the subject of "Naya Mill" where one sees shoppers amidst High Street Phoenix.
I really don't know how many visitors from the international arena will understand this campaign. But what do the others think? Think it works? Keep those comments coming!

Oooooh-Aaaaaah-Ouch!

One more from cool ad for the Axe Effect from Lowe, India. The copywriter is Nasar Husami and the Art Director is Sajid Khan. Good work guys!

F+E+V+I+C+O+L




I've already posted one-ad from this campaign. But I like it so much that I felt it only makes sense to post all 3 ads together! Fevicol is a famous adhesive from India and the agency that created this campaign is Ogilvy & Mather, Mumbai. Do you like the idea and the simplicity it has? I do!

The Harley Davidson Story!


Since the year 1979, Carmichael Lynch has been comng up with some of the finest advertising campaigns for Harley Davidson. A brand that isn't just a brand but has become a mantra to the millions of poeple who own one and swear by its philosophy. I simply love most of their work and this one is no different.

A knife for every deed!


A campaign for a brand of knives called Tramontina from Brazil. The company also manufactures a lot of other products like kitchenware, industrial equipment, chairs, tools, electrical materials, catering materials and more. Anybody know the agency that did this?

Does Anybody Get This?

This ad for GE from Sao Paulo, Brazil was done by Neogama BBH. I don't really understand what it's trying to say. Can somebody help? May be a perspective from Brazil might help! ;)

Sunsilk Hair Care


This campaign for Sunsilk Afterwash Combing Lotion comes from the Mumbai Office of JWT. A refreshing change from all the mundane hair care advertising that we're so bored of seeing in this part of the world. The photography in the ads is pretty intresting too...

Shocking Enough??


These 2 extremely graphic pieces of communication are for the Nicolas Hulot Foundation. The agency behind this campaign is CLM BBDO, Paris.

For those of you interested, The Nicolas Hulot Foundation is a non-profit organisation that was founded in 1990 and makes young people and adults aware of the riches and the fragility of our natural heritage and supports concrete initiatives in aid of the environment in a move for sustainable development.

It is the only state-approved French Foundation to act in the field of education about the environment, the Fondation is authorized to receive donations. More @ www.fondation-nicolas-hulot.org

Yet Another Stunning Stori!



I think this campaign isn't a really fresh idea or anything but still works well from the consumer point of view. It definetely does keep me interested and would make me look at it again and again. Yet another amazing campaign from 1pointsize. what do you think? VIA

BMW Audio Stories!


The most important thing for a brand is the number of ways it can develop touch points with its customers. The more newer avenues you can find the better. BMW has always been a brand that has looked for new and innovative ways to talk to its audience. Like the series of short films it produced a couple of years back.

BMW is back again. This time with a series of 4 short-stories in Audio Format. Download them and enjoy them in your car, on your music system, on your mobile phone or just plug a CD into your music system. Check them out
here! Hope you enjoy them. :)
