ASICS VENDING MACHINE

The term point of purchase usually refers to the industry concerned with customer behavior at the location of the purchase decision. POP is considered one of the most important aspects of advertising and merchandising. It is believed that the most critical time to influence buyer behavior is when they have money in hand.
Points of purchase displays (or POP displays) include merchandising of all sorts, including kiosks, cardboard cutouts, signage, and end caps. Digital signage is being used more and more for pop displays due to its unique ability to seize attention at the critical time. With interactive features and sensors, digital signage can deliver messaging increasingly tailored for the immediate audience.
How many times we have seen tons of vending machines in the streets, so many products tailored and available for the consumers, but what about this vending machine by Asics. To be honestly i've never seen something like this, i would come up with this idea in my life. Clearly a good example of how to push up the merchandise to the consumers. Of course the allocation of the vending machines have to come with a huge marketing research in order to put this vending machines in influence zone where the people are willing and available to purchase the tennis at the street

THE EXPRESSION OF DEATH THROUGH THE EYES OF DANIELA EDBURG

According to Wikipedia, DEATH is the end of the life of a biological organism. Death may refer to the end of life as either an event or condition.[1] Many factors can cause or contribute to an organism's death, including predation, disease, habitat destruction, senescence, malnutrition and accidents or physical injury. The principal causes of human death in developed countries are diseases related to aging.[1] Traditions and beliefs related to death are an important part of human culture, and central to many religions. In medicine, biological details and definitions of death have become increasingly complicated as technology advances. Death can be caused naturally, or sometimes by such things as violence or diseases.
Daniela Edburg represents in an ideological type of way the death , she reprents this statement through photographs. An unconventional way to catch those moments where people are already death. The people in the photographs are not clearly death is just the imagination of this creative artist. Another interesting fact is that all of pictures contain persons death for any type of massive products sucha as shampoo, nutella , etc..
Check out this pics , they are really worth it , plus the work done in terms of pixels are really good. I left you with the most recent work of this controversial artist

PROMOTION FOR A TERROR MOVIE

I just dont have words for this installation. It goes direct to the consumers in an alternative point of purchase. The installation take place in the bathrooms at the movie place. You go to wash your hands or take lick before you get inside of the movie and suddenly you in the middle of a terror movie. Awesome installation, all of the people have been talking about this alternative use of advertising. The question is , do this strategy will have the same impact here in Mexico , I dont think so!!

OUTDOOR ADVERTISING !!!

Once again another execution by another university. This time we are talking about Advertising School: Savannah College of Art & Design, Savannah, USA. In a difficult and risky attempt to advertise Power Gym , the students from this institution didi a very good job to crack out the idea.
