AVOID ORANGE SKIN!!!!!!!!

Normally the using of good looking people and models into cosmetics advertising is a must to reclaim the call to action of a brand. The type of media is TVC and prints but there is times when the client the risk to do something innovative and turn the brand into a word of mouth thing. This activation is a really good strategy, the coach was allocated in the several malls where the target was around. The advertising purpose is to communicate that with Nivea you can avoid cellulite. The message is clear and the audience get to know the different texture of the coach.

VESPA MOTORCYCLE!!!!

The 21st century has seen the reentry of Vespas into the North American market, the creation of high-end “touring” Vespas suitable for longer distance drives, and major upgrades in engine efficiency and power. In 2007, Piaggio introduced the MP3, a concept vehicle with two wheels in front and one in the rear. An advanced suspension and computer-controlled fuel injection make the MP3 a very futuristic scooter
This print was made for the entry market of USA, the sense of humor is hillarius,
i just love even more this motorcycles. I wish i have one.

AT THE SUPERMARKET!

Since a few years ago there`s been a lot of changes in business. Of course in some have changed more and some less. In terms of advertising there`s been a lot of changes since 10 years ago, new media have merge, the way of processes work and how the creative ideas come together.
Some of the "Intellectuals" are always complaining because they say a lot of ad agencies are recycling ideas or allocating advertising in where some others have made it before. I think is totally false the last statement because every single day we discover new media to advertise something , its not like you discovered and its going to be yours forever , it is just a simple space as other. What you can really work to make a fresh strategy , is to use that idea and allocate it in a creative way to that media. This example clearly illustrate what im talking about. A lot of ad agencies have conducted advertising in the band of the supermarkets but Milky Way really crack out the idea.

GUERILLA FOR SMART

In order to communicate Smart "fits everywhere", the creative idea was to allocate small stickers between several posters of cars, as it shows. The strategy really capture person`s attention and it transmit perfectly the core benefit of the small car. Its like saying , if you are riding this car it will fit pretty much between no matter what car.

Pretty cool video to celebrate the anniversary of Converse. The advertising strategy was to associate converse with a hype kind of music hiring Santogold, Julian Casablancas, N.E.R.D to create a great song My drive thru

TAKING APPROACH IN BEIJING OLYMPICS

I know everyone is talking about how The Olympics are going, who wins more medals, which athlete will cut through history! Let's leave the sport along side and focus in how big is the awareness in this global event. For marketers this is a great chance to sponsor and advertise their brands. Of course it will be a lot of visual traffic so brands take their best shot in order to create a different kind of way to promote and come out of the normal standards. I think its brilliant how Mini cooper who have dragged traditional Chinese street transport into the 21st century with these great bike-powered Minis. Samsung has been equally creative, giving Olympics' fans a chance to view all of the action from their own "private" alien-like pods. A clear example of taking opportunities that will make a difference in terms of advertising

I was really seeing this TVC until end up, it really catch my attention .Its so emotional and it really transmit the feeling side of courage .Nike showed several faces of famous athletes showing streght and fierce during the competition . I think a really good part of the TVC is the music. They chose a really good song to make more sensitive the TVC. It goes from downbeat ending with high beat. Great Commercial

BIG BOOOOOOOOBBBBSSSSSS!

The are several global campaigns you can recognize at the moment you see them! The big idea is so hard deep that the target click immediately. There is something really truth in advertising, in order to transmit a message you have to really dig into one big idea. An idea that you can manipulate , an idea you play across several media and an idea you can renovate through the passing time. There is a good example here, Wonder Bra a global brand for BRA'S communicate just only one BIG BIG BIG idea "BIG BOOBBS" . C'mon which girl dont want to increase the size of their boobs, all of them!!!! Thats one of the many reasons this ad campaign has been so successful.
I love the things WONDER BRA does, its just amazing how they play with media , and this execution is just brilliant, it really communicate the functional and emotional benefit.

HOT BUILDING FOR LOUIS VUITTON

The design for the 10 storey (54 meter tall) flagship Louis Vuitton store in Japan aims to establish an architectural equivalent of the identity of Louis Vuitton in which classical and modern qualities are blended, reinforcing each other. The design inspires the visitor with a feeling of being in the House of Louis Vuitton by celebrating the qualities that make up the essence of the company, its products, its history and its future.

The building follows the structure of a (grand) house: with three levels, each spanning a varying number of split-level floors and each with its own atmosphere and purpose. Each floor is in principle divided into four leaves, which are set in a spiral pattern with a height difference between each leaf of 2.70 meters. Terrace zones, which offer a mix of functions in a garden setting, mark the different vertical sections of the house, with the sense of intimacy growing towards the top of the building.
The location and construction schedule of the ten-storey building are secret for now.

GOOD BYE INNOCENCE!!!

Positioning is a term in advertising that has come to mean the process by which marketers try to create an image or identity in the minds of their target market for its product, brand, or organization. It is the 'relative competitive comparison' their product occupies in a given market as perceived by the target market. Advertisers get this escence of positoning and turn it down into grafic statements and TVC`s.

This prints are just amazing, the brand is trying to positionate in a certain personality of rebeldy . The sense of saying , you can be outkast too, is a sense of creating a community of beliefs behind your communication. The copy says "good bye innocence" clearly a good effort from the part of planning and account. The insights are just exactly what they have to touch, the kids at this age are in this period sensible of finding themselves, finding who will be , finding with what thing your personality might be associated. The brand is giving them exactly this esence of belong to something. Its like saying them, dont play with your toys anymnore become something more exciting and dareful,become the person who set trends to your friends . Plus, the art and the idea are very creative. I like them because they break the convential advertising

"MOTEL GARAGE"

Esta es la primera vez que escribo en español en mi blog, el hecho de escribir todos los posts en ingles no quiere decir que me disguste escribir en mi idioma. Simplemente lo hago de esa manera por que es más fácil entender un mensaje en ingles que en mi propia lengua, ya saben por cuestiones de globalización y entendimiento!

Vamos al grano del asunto, estoy escribiendo en español por que la campaña que encontré fue desarrollada en un país de lengua hispana (Honduras). Seria muy difícil describir esta estrategia en ingles por los modismos y la intención que se busca.
Muchas veces vemos publicidad de Hoteles pero nunca vemos publicidad para Moteles. Esta es una de las razones por la cual quise postearla. Estos prints de verdad que es graciosa y muy inteligente, muestra los principales atributos del hotel. El copy se centra en aquellas actividades que se realizan en un motel la mayoría de las veces. Todo esto manejado desde un punto de vista humorístico y sin caer en lo ordinario. Creo que es un gran acierto por parte de BBDO por que el mensaje se pega inmediatamente al consumidor en una manera chistosa.
