New Advertising Campaign Makes Clever Use of Airport Tags

Expedia Bon VoyageExpedia wish you were hereExpedia LatersA new marketing campaign for Expedia by ad agency Ogilvy cleverly uses luggage tags from various airports to create words or phrases.

The ads are otherwise simple, with a plain background, focusing attention on the tags themselves, which convey a variety of messages such as "Bon Voyage" and "Wish you were here". Although some of the messages are prone to "text speak" they generally do a good job of conveying the idea of getting away.

Anti-smoking ad that pints out hypocrisy

Anti-Smoking AdvertisingThailand has launched a very thought provoking anti-smoking ad which points out the hypocrisy of smokers when approached by a child who asks them for a light.

Every smoker the child approached tried to persuade him not to smoke and how dangerous to his health it is.

The child finishes the stunt by handing the smoker a leaflet explaining their hypocrisy.

The ad received more than 960,000 views before being taken down but it has now reappeared again.

Please view it below and let us know what you think.

Agency: Ogilvy Thailand

Stylish sci-fi fantasy for Perrier

Premier Drop AdvertisingPerrier Ad DropPerrier has launched a short film called 'Drop', produced by Ogilvy Paris.

The film sees a young woman attempt a mission to the sun when the temperature on the Earth reaches unbearable levels.

It is directed by Johan Renck and was inspired by 2001: A Space Odyssey, as well as French cinematography and includes lots of stylistic special effects courtesy VFX house Mikros Image.

A great visual spectacle but probably not the solution to global warming.
