Make it a campaign. You can use a Plane and a Bike. Do they have Fedex ship too?

Impressive student work, congrats!

Never argue with an idiot. He'll drag you down to his level and beat you with experience.

Ha! I was thinking of replying with the same ad link with the 18 wheeler. I still think it's a nice adaptation for their delivery trucks. Although they should probably put their FedEx logo on the door for people who are not as familiar with the brand name.

I think this is pretty different. Those show other courier packages being shipped in a larger Fedex box/truck. This one takes the idea of a photo finish and ties it together with the line "Always first."
The way he lined up the wheels is perfect. I also like being able to see the Fedex truck through the DHL truck's windows.

This is an awesome idea, and well executed. It would work as an actual painted truck, a print ad, a billboard, a web banner.. You could also show it beating a UPS truck.

the idea is the same- fedex is so good it even carries other shipping companies. same ad, different channel. simples.

martytheparty's picture 4 pencils

You're right, the idea is the same - FedEx ships faster. Maybe this idiot shoulda picked a different USP, am I right?

To those of you saying "already done":

Give the kids a break. It's a smart idea, and they should be encouraged.

If you want to make them feel better then yes, but if you want them to be better then no. Criticism is the cloud every creative lives under. Honesty will do far more for a student than being polite. that doesn't mean you should be mean, just honest.

That's cheeky and brilliant..

robinstam's picture 164 pencils

Of all the concept that say something about being better than the competition, I think this one is the best. Great work guys, and ignore all these jealous people who say that it's been done ;-).

Funny; I like this idea!

This ad really captures what FedEx is aiming for, always being first. Other companies and competitors just cant keep up with our service and speed. It also makes you stop and really look at the photo because at first you think its two different delivery trucks when it is really just one. This is great student work and definitely a smart way to incorporate the photo finish of always being first.
