hi ivan... i was not aware that there is a room for fake work too...

if this is really done, where is the shadow of greenpeace & the text. & by the way who will read this... s**t use of media...

Given the angle of the sun and the fact that the logo and text appear to be partly transparent, I don't think there would be much of a shadow that would be visible. On top of all that you sound a bit bitter. Try therapy.

talking about shadows. there are shadows on 3rd and 4th light stick.

raavii - who the f"ck are you to say what should and shouldn't go on here?

A real creative is interested in the ideas mate, whether they are real or not.

This one is real btw and its pretty good.

-----------------------------
It's only an ad.

cool poster!
nice one ivan.

slim's picture 1047 pencils

Simple, smart. Should do well.
Reminds me a bit of that ad featuring just the axehead with no wooden handle.

Ravilli, I think you're jumping to conclusions a bit there. You're not going to see the greenpeace logo with the sun at that angle.

kalpesh78's picture 1910 pencils

This is a Great idea. Bang-on target. Thats what matters. a lot of times clients don't understand great communication. ideas should be posted. not great 'released ads'.

ideas....30 minutes nahi toh free.

stepN's picture 12 pencils

simple and powful
i like it

Beatboxer's picture 1523 pencils

Works perfectly! And by the way, YES, of course people will read it.

Instead of a regular ad, you have bars. People will look at the headline to see what it's all about, to see why it's not figuring an ad like they are used to see.

Enas's picture 743 pencils

just a sticker...what is the idea pls some one tel me

kre8's picture 993 pencils

er, no paper.

bzedgar's picture 16 pencils

The idea is "Do it".more than words,talkers.

What the Hell's picture 114 pencils

Again? Whats next? A poster painted on the wall to help saving paper? What about using a projector? Or plastic stickers?

addyhoch10's picture 2599 pencils

not sure this is less harmful to the environment though...
is it a sticker? or printed on the glass panel?

anyway, very nice idea.

This was done more effectively in Australia (can't find link) with ads printed on used fax pages
and order forms. Won heaps of awards here. The "use less" looks like "useless".

Bai-ee's picture 8 pencils

How am I gonna notice that walking/driving by?

I would be thinking to myself, "someones losing revenue on empty transit ad space."

Teboec's picture 38 pencils

Que bueno que esta buena ejecución

postman's picture 955 pencils

This ad is very good. It's saying "We really believe in what we tell you".

Rog's picture 6110 pencils

Lovely idea, ethic, delivery.

>>>> That's not an ad. THIS is an ad.

Vudu6's picture 81 pencils

This is a great piece. Straight to the point. :)

shady jake's picture 8 pencils

This is such a tired execution. So easy.

A. J. SMITH's picture 2850 pencils

Then how come you never did it?

shady jake's picture 8 pencils

Easy. I don't rip off ads that have already been done.

A. J. SMITH's picture 2850 pencils

NO, I mean why didn't you do it first?

esotericusername's picture 313 pencils

shady jake has a little personal gripe going on. check what he's commented on so far, quite clear.

A. J. SMITH's picture 2850 pencils

It looks like you're right.

Poor guy.

Guest commenter's picture

i had to guess what the idea was, and though i was right i don think its good to be unsure. The bars confuse me. They feel like something that was just added to fill empty space. maybe an attempt to lead the eye to the message? which is very small. not a fan.

Guest's picture

I think that's just the florescent strip lighting inside the unit, not part of the ad itself.

As simple as cheap, great peace of comunication.
Its not a 10 because its defecault to read, people could think that there is nothing there, and there isnt, so...
