Hey! All of you! Answer to me: How much people read a magazine in a beach under the sun? The ad seems not to work very well considering this, or not? What happens if I see the ad on a bus, or in my house? Think about it.
Hey you!! Listen to ME!!! I tell you:
Did you ever think of this ad being published in the summer editions of magazines? In August a lot of people go to the beaches, you know. People may even read a magazines on a sunny day having lunch in the park. Even in the bus you can enjoy a little sun on your face and if your house has a balcony or a garden you even try it there. Think about it.
The only thing that would have made it better is if they put a little sample pack of the sunscreen there. No one wants to associate the brand with a burnt face.
if you put a little sample there this ad would cost a bloody fortune, im sure it already did anyways.
Nice concept and to @pabloaotw, so what if people see it on the bus? the fact that it grabs your attention and you read hawaiin tropic, thats it youve done half your job.
This ad ROCKS!! Really like it when the way it execute on it's own...
But come to think of real application, if the consumer / reader didn hold the magazine under the sun. It fail! Unless the consumer or reader seen this demo picture shown bellow...
How many of u guys will read a magazine under the big hot sunny day?
the idea is great
i was wondering...
Sweden have sun? and without the tr..two months of summer?
People read magazines allways on beach, or out-places?
this can work just in a few cases/places.
inside the office, cold light, you take a look out there and see GREY sky... huh!
great idea, but this was made to award, does not work in real world very well.
congratulations.

Pabloatw, that's solvable. Just put 'how to use' instructions in small print on the bottom of the ad.
That would definitely make this good idea great.
this is hands-down the best "innovative" print ad i've ever seen.
If you guys have seen a better one....PLEASE POST IT HERE -->
Magic. Haven't seen an idea like that in a long time. Waitin' to be done - done by pure genius. That's timeless.

Curious to know how it was executed. I mean the kind of paper used and how the mechanism works.
Cheers!
