Durex @ the Cannes!



A Cannes Gold Lion Winner for Durex done by Lowe Bull in Cape Town, South Africa.

Patli Galli - Hindi Ad!

I really don't know how many of you appreciate ads in Hindi but if you do, you'll find this great! It talks about December and what happens in Indian Advertising Agencies at that time. By the way, does anybody know which agency did this?

:: TBWA ::

I know, I know! It loked so much like the PS2 ad that I almost skipped it from my mail box! Well, thisis actually an average idea made to look superb with good art direction and some great photography! I think it's a good attempt at self promotion.

IWC Big Watch

Now, that's an absolute beauty of an idea done by Copywriter, Susanne Härtwig and Art Director, Simon Hiebl from Jung von Matt/Alster. Pictures of the Big Pilot's Watch are attached to the straps in buses enabling commuters to easily try it on the way to the airplane. Simply brilliant!

Give us your BLOOD!

Tim Yang from Dentsu, Malaysia sent me this ad done by few of his mates for a blood bank. I think it's an idea I have seen before but I am not very sure! Nonetheless, Nice work!

The Condom Store!


2 really bold posters for the condom store that tell you what to do if it is the end of the world. The second poster reminds me of another poster done earlier with instructions in case of a flight emergency...can't recollect which brand though! If anybody knows the agency that did these, leave a comment!

Kill Bill in the Elevator!

Old is Gold - Cannes Winner!

Cannes Print Grand Prix '06

This was the ad that won the Print Grand Prix at Cannes '06. Another let down! I don't even know how many of us will see the Submarine there...did you? All said and done, I don't think this deserved the Grand Prix, there were so many others ads that were brilliant!



This is a poster campaign that Blattner Brunner did for a toy store in Pittsburgh. And yes, it was done before the Grand Prix Print winner featured above!

Apollo Tubeless Tyres by JWT, India

As simple as simple can get! This is again great stuff by JWT, India. Winner of a Merit award at the One Show and a nomination at Cannes 2006 too!

IAPA by Ogilvy & Mather



This campaign for the IAPA (Indian Association for Promotion of Adoption and Child Welfare) by Ogilvy & Mather, Mumbai is definetely its most celebrated campaign in recent times. After wining at the One Show, the campaign has also won a Silver Lion in the Press: Public Awareness Messages category at the Cannes Advertising Fest recently.
The campaign features little children printed on an acetate sheet and the pages next to them show 2 drastic ends of where the kids could be. Like on a bed at home or on the streets, studying or working on the street or working on a construction site or playing with play blocks at home, etc.

Harley, Harley, Harley!



Winner of a Cannes Lion and a Merit Award at the One Show, this campaign by Art Director, Mike Groenewald and Writer, Konstant van Huyssteen from Ogilvy, South Africa tells you the power of a Harley Davidson in style!

JAM from Delhi



One more campaign by Ogilvy & Mather, Delhi that won a Merit Award at the One Show 2006.
Art Director: Mohit Tomar >> Copywriter: Nikhil Pandey >> Creative Director: Emmanuel Upputuru >> Client: Shipra Estate Private Limited

Absolutely Clean!

Another Merit Winner at the One Show 2006. This was done by Saatchi & Saatchi, Mumbai. I somehoe believe this should have won. One look and absolutely anybody on planet earth knows what I want to say! This is really good work.

Plant More Trees!



One Show Merit Nominee, this campaign was done by Ogilvy & Mather, Mumbai for the Hindustan Times - An English Daily.

Ewwwwww!

F%*$, that is so DISGUSTING! I don't really know who or where or for what this liquid soap dispenser was made for but I find it extremely putting off! More reactions, anyone?? I doubt anybody would like this!

Block by Jontex!

After the amazing innovation in the loo, Jontex - the brand of condoms is back again. McCann Erickson did this amazing execution in the middle of football matches in Brazil. Now, what better way to show what a condom can do!

Outdoor Grandprix @ Cannes '06





This campaign for Tate Britain was the Grand Prix winner at Cannes '06. One look at the other winners and you'll probably realise the loads of other work that could have won! I think it is mostly about sensibilities. If an international jury from across the world chose this then may be there is something that many of us wouldn't understand. Atleast I didn't get this campaign! Can anybody explain??

Category: Corporate Image >> Title: HUNGOVER >> Advertiser: TATE BRITAIN >> Product or Service: MUSEUM >> Advertising Agency: FALLON LONDON >> Country: UNITED KINGDOM >> Creative Director: Richard Flintham >> Copywriter: Juan Cabral >> Art Director: Juan Cabral >> Typographer: Ginny Carrel >>

Lynxjet @ Cannes '06




Fresh Bronze Outdoor Winners from Cannes '06, this campaign for Lynx was done by Lowe Hunt in Australia. The campaign also won a Promo Lion for effectively being used to launch an airline!! I love the attitude these have!
