Man Financial by 6 Inches!

Man Financial ranks amongst the world’s largest independent futures brokers, also being one of the oldest. The task of branding this legend was made easier with a history rich in tradition and culture. We started by exploring the heritage of Man Financial, which has stood the toughest test of time and has proved its mettle. The new campaign “200 years of Glory” reflects the true spirit and making of Man. An integrated campaign has given Man wide-spread recognition in India.

Fabricare Laundry!

A very simple idea that has been expressed in a very different style. I initially thought this was a campaign for a washing powder but this campaign for Fabricare, a laundry and dry cleaner talks about the abuse clothes face each day and how this can be put to an end.

The Chinese Buffet Luncheon!

Thanks to Sandeep Rajan from Fisheye Creative Solutions in Bangalore for sending in this ad for the Chinese Buffet Luncheon at Civet. I guess this is more of a perfect beer belly image, I wish this ad was for a pub but it definetely is funny and gets the message across quite interestingly.

Biffar Doors!

Airtel - Talk at just 10 Paise!

A new campaign by Rediffusion DY&R for Airtel - A telecommunications company from India. The campaign promotes their late night talk facility where subscribers can make calls for just 10 paise per minute!

NHS Erection!

There have probably been more effective ads using the erectile dysfunction theory in regards to anti-smoking advertising but this ad by AMV BBDO in UK grabs attention instantly. PS: I always thought the message of this ad was a myth to fear men into quitting...well, I know it's a reality now.

Spar Sea Food Festival

A Guerilla Attempt by Quadrant Communications to promote the Sea Food Festival at a restaurant named Spar by placing artificial Oysters on the beaches of Mumbai.

Road Roller for Kenstar!

This one is a bit of a scam but I still wonder who would look for communication on a Road Roller! This Guerilla Effort by Quadrant Communications was desired to showcase the ironing powers of the Kenstar Iron Box!

Central Square by Rediffusion, Delhi

Rediffusion DY&R, Delhi created the city's well known landmarks out of the barcode. The headline juxtaposes the visual. In the very centre of Delhi - where the parliament and presidents estate are - a new landmark comes up - Central Square, a world class business district and the capital's most coveted business address.

Sony Cybershot T7

A new effort in the never ending series of Slim Ads from all across the planet. This ad for Sony Cybershot 5.1 Megapixel Digital Camera was created by Saatchi & Saatchi, Dubai. via

HUMO Consequences!

HUMO, the Flemish Magazine has always been very experimental and interesting with all its advertising campaigns. Their last effort was mixing cultures, a campaign you can see here. Their current campaign tells viewers about the serious consequences reading HUMO can have. I think the platform is a brilliant one and can be extended across several interesting variations. Great work here.

Chloromint Ice Spec Campaign

Sanjeet Wallia from Mudra, Delhi sent in these two spec ads for Chlormint Ice from his portfolio. He'd like to know what you guys think of them. I see an idea that can be pushed further, the execution can be spruced up too. Thanks Sanjeet!

Benchmade Adventure Gear!

Swamp Stingers, Saber Clawed Bats and Fanged Giant Creepers...all a part of this bizzare campaign by Leo Burnett, Thailand for the Benchmade Brand of Adventure Gear. The promise here is that Benchmade makes the finest gear so that nothing (not even the most dangerous things on the planet) should stop you from seeking adventure.

Food From Spain - II

Here's the second campaign for Foods From Spain by Bray Leino in Bristol, UK. I think this one is more interesting than the first campaign that you can see here.

Agency: Bray Leino, Bristol. United Kingdom >> Creative Director: Richard Kramer >> Copywriter: Morgan Cummins >> Art Director: Andy Purnell

Katona József Theatre, Budapest

Thanks to Linda Zador from Hungary for sending this very interesting poster by Leo Burnett, Budapest to promote the online booking facility at the Katona Jozsef Theatre. It's simple, clear and striking like Linda says!

Nike Paris!

A cool ad for a new Nike Store on the Champs-Elysees by DDB Paris. The attitude of the ad really rocks!

Dominate Hair Wax!

Colenso BBDO in New Zealand thinks that these ads would convince their TG to buy Dominate Hair Wax. The only thing they make me do is wanna go puke! Sorry but these ads just make me feel that way! I wish they work for the brand.

Elevator at Gold's Gym!

A very interesting execution and very clever use of medium by Quadrant Communications, India. Stickers showing two muscular arms were pasted outside the lift doors. Another sticker showing the torso of the body builder with arms stretched was pasted on the inside of the lift wall. When the lift door opened, the arms parted and looked as if the man is forcing the door open. A sure winner for sheer power of the idea!

Atlas ATB by Leo Burnett!

Why do I get a sense of deja vu when I see this campaign for Atlas ATB by Leo Burnett, New Delhi (All Terrain Bicycles). May be it has to be the technique that's been done before. Or may be this campaign is just similar to something else.

By the way, I'm guessing that this is the kind of campaign tthatt might mean different ideas to different people. The idea for me is since these are All Terrain, the mud, rocks and sand are visual depictions. What's your take on it, interpret it any other way?

Renault Automobiles!

A very nice campaign for Renault Automobiles by Publicis, Frankfurt in Germany. Crisp, clean Art Direction and some good photography too.
