Creative Ads
Bored of the mundane looking banner advertisements you see everyday? I know I am, but there are some creative ads that pop up every now and then, have a look at the following ads:
Body odour anyone? This ad was placed on the sliding doors of supermarkets in Mumbai , India that depicts people moving away if from you have body odour.
A creative take by Duracell batteries in Malaysia showing a high voltage box being powered by Duracell batteries.
An ambient exercise to promote Eatalica burgers. A ‘Caution - Wet Floor’ board was placed near an Eatalica burger signboard. The copy on the board reads, ‘Oogling at the burger may involuntarily cause drooling, which may in turn lead to a wet floor. Issued for your safety by the management of Eatalica Restaurant’. (Eatalica is an American-Italian food joint in Chennai , India. These burgers must be superlicious!
Huge mirrors were built to allow passers-by to stop by and ‘try’ out individual clothing in a shopping mall.
Stickers were placed in selected car park locations and car workshops where M-Tech Plasma HID lights are sold in Malaysia. It delivers the message that these headlights are 300% brighter than regular headlights. The burn-effect sticker from the headlights really leaves an impression.
In another creative idea by The Fitness Company, ‘dumbbells’ were placed at various subways in New York City, which create an illusion that the person holding the safety bar is doing weights.
A very cost-effective advertisement in Hong Kong for a yoga school showcases the prowess of a yoga practitioner on the flexible stems of drinking straws. Wanna be as flexible as a straw? Join Yoga today!
A creative ad by Mini Cooper placed at the Zurich , Switzerland train station, shows people climbing into or out of the car,
when they are actually entering or exiting stairs.
