Drive In Theatre!

One more print winner from the London International Advertising Festival in 2005. This one's for Volkswagon. Nice Art Direction.

Seeng a Soong Lyke Deees!

Here's a print ad I really really like! This won a metal at the London International Advertising Fest in 2005 and was done for LG Karaoke. I don't know if everybody will get it but I like it so much for the smile it brings to my face every single time I read it. Lovely work. One of those pieces that is hard to forget for me atleast!

Lisbon Mosquitoes!

A piece of print advertising from TBWA Lisbon for RAID Mosquito Repellants.

An interesting piece of work done for the WWF (World Wildlife Fund) from somewhere in India. (Ogilvy, Mumbai I think, can anybody confirm that?).

A Bloody Tomato!

Another bizzare print ad from South East Asia (China/Japan/Korea...I guess!). Can anybody out there help with a translation and tell us which brand this is. I quite like the art direction...captivating and memorable!

Frozen Vodka



A campaign for Stolichnoya Vodka. I don't know the agency but I think this print campaign did win a Cannes sometime last year. Can anybody confirm that??

Vroooooooooooom!

A print ad done by Rafineri, Turkey for Dekalo Metal Cast Cars. I've been noticing that Rafineri is an agency that does a lot of very clever and interesting work on many of its accounts. Does anybody know more about them?? VIA

Thinking Books



A print campaign for a bookstore named Ferin Ingle. The idea is that every page of a book leads to so much thought!

Fishing in the 21st Century!




A very intresting print campaign for Pesca, a magazine that positions itself as the "modern fishing magazine"! I personally like the visual treatment to each of these ads. They are quite nice and the way the idea blends with the traditional faces of the fisherman is also very fresh. Cool work done by Giovanni FCB in Brazil. VIA

More Bus-Shelter Advertising!


One more idea that uses the medium of Bus-Shelters. This idea by BBDO West was done for the Next Millionaire. The shelters gave the opportunity to help people imagine themselves in the settings of the rich and famous.

Underwater!






An interesting campaign for the Monterey Bay Aquarium somewhere in Northern California and not in Canada as mentioned earlier. Does anybody know the agency behind this campaign? Thanks for the tip, Nicholas Baum! ;)

I dont know the Art/Design School that did this Guerilla Idea for Benjamin Moore Paints. The idea won a Bronze at the Andy Awards. Does anybody know the student or school involved here?

Leo Burnett at the Andy's

Leo Burnett, Bangalore won a Bronze for this Press Ad on the Bhopal Gas Tragedy at the recent Andy Awards.

Adidas Gigaride!




This print campaign for Adidas was intended to compliment a series of television commercials for the Gigaride technology that promises "Unstoppable Cushioning." This campaign was developed by Nonbox. The team included with Creative Director, Steve Flood, Illustrator, Marc Gabbana and Designer, Matt Davis.
The agency had to work from an existing creative concept showcased in a series of 30-second television commericials. The commercials had the benefit of time to tell their story whereas the nonbox design team was limited to expressing the same message in one frame--be it a poster, window banner or POS insert.
