"QUANTUM SHOT" #1701. Creativity and (wonderfully twisted) imagination Continuing our running series, these are examples of the most effective ads - you know, the ones that immediately catch your eye, grab all your attention and do not let go until you figure out what is really going on. This ad series reminds me of "The Truman Show" movie: "Where does your world end" - for Century Travel ![]() ![]() (Source: adsoftheworld Agency: JWT, Photographer: Garigosa Studio) I also really like this series (I am sure, anyone can identify with this predicament): "Athletes wanting to burst out" ![]() ![]() ![]() Agency: DM9DDB для Athletica (Source: Kuteev) ![]() (images credit Joerg Kritzer) Sharks of (and over) the Wall Street: ![]() Water (natural?) instinct: ![]() Agency: Y&R для Arena (Source: adsoftheworld) ![]() ![]() 2. Clever urban ad placement: They get you everywhere! At your daily commute, when you raise your eyes to the skies, or when you are looking down at the pavement. ![]() ![]() Help to prevent theft of manhole lids! ![]() ![]() (via Weird Daily) ![]() ![]() Upside-down boots installation in a subway train: (wanna dangle from the tube like a bat?) Read more about it here - via ![]() The following image you may have seen already, but it's really "spot-on!" ad placement: ![]() ![]() Casinò di Venezia advertisement at the Venice Marco Polo Airport: ![]() (image credit: AdmCom) Office supplies: ![]() in a supermarket: ![]() in a restaurant: ![]() ![]() ![]() (images credit Aeon.jp) at the beach (inside strategically placed seashells): ![]() Billboards of note: ![]() ![]() ![]() ad for the vacuum cleaner: ![]() ad for?.. TLC ![]() Attention-grabbing bags: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Do not take this bag on your flight! In fact, considering recent events, better hide it at home.
