A bird in hand is worth 2 in bush!

A lot of rubbish takes the name of advertising these days! What exactly is DIESEL trying to tell us here?

Football for Nature!

Headline: Every second commercial burning destroys an area of rainforest the size of 2 football fields. At this rate, there will be none standing in 50 years. Agency: Ad Planet Group

It could only be Heineken!

WOW! Bates in Singapore really knows how to give a bottle of beer so much attitude that it almost puts every other superstar to shame! This is probably one of the coolest campaigns when it comes to selling a bottle of beer...
Considering brands like kingfisher, fosters, carlsberg, budweiser, coors, miller light, busch, guinness, corona andso many others...which one do you think makes the coolest ads? any favourites?

mtvtvmmtvvtmmvttvmtvmvtmttvvtmmvttvm!!


Why is Marilyn Manson walking with a swan between his legs? Why is Micheal Jackson feeding a deer?? These 'mtv - made in romania' ads puzzle me! Can you explain them? via

Fitness One Corporate Campaign






Today, my agency 'be positive 24' completed 6 months. Looking back it's been a great ride. On this happy day, I felt like posting our first campaign we shot in late December 2005 even before we had an office of our own!
This campaign was targetted at encouraging the corporate community to work out. The models in this campaign were sourced from various avenues: ballet dancers, circus artists, aerobics instructors, salsa trainers and several other cool people...twas a whole lotta fun!

Nityam Churan Bucket Campaign


This campaign for Nityam Churan was sent to me last week. I really like the idea behind it but the 2 aspects I'd liked to have seen are better photoshop work and improved levels of art-direction. I also think the campaign can look so much better if the frames are further dramatised (more ridiculous situations, may be)!
A passing idea was what if one used famous people instead of regular ones (filmstars, politicians, sportsmen, etc...). Would that make it funnier or would they take away from the concept? Well, maybe someone else has a better opinion to make this campaign a great one...

The Monroe Fart Power!

I like this ad for Science World than the one I posted a few days ago! I remember one of these ads picking up a Cannes Lion too!

Final Cut Hair Salon

Bow to the King!

Is the horse bowing before the car because of the Ferrari & Prancing Horse co-relation or is there much more to the story??

Fanatics Book Club - Long Copy!

Freaky Gollum in NZ

A really scary installation of Gollum to promote the Lord of the Rings in New Zealand. If I saw this at night, I'm sure this would be double scary!
