looks too cheap.

sumsum's picture 619 pencils

that's because it's a fake. i strongly doubt this board has ever seen a single ray of sun. not mentioning the bad photoshopping...

capywriter's picture 5526 pencils

Mmm... not bad at first thought... Just hope the sun shines a lot more in you're area than in mine. Actually it doesn't seem sunny at all at the moment this was shot... bit weird no? And how much time during a day would the sun be in the right angle to get it as nice as this?? Or is it manipulated and the text is actually written with the effect of a shadow? In that cases it weakens the whole idea... Nice thought and insight... not really realistic to execute the best way...

Not real.

mono's picture 29 pencils

The client has to realize that the ROI for this type of an idea is very iffy. They could very well end up wasting their money on a blank piece of billoard if the weather doesn't cooperate. And of course, at night (which is half the media buy,) their money is going straight down the drain. But when everything lines up (the sun, the board and the street audience,) this could be magic. This is a perfect board for always sunny SoCal and those Southern-most states.

But after seeing the idea done for a fast food chain and the rising sea level, etc. the gimmick has lost its novelty.

Heaven's picture 88 pencils

De estudiante de 1er semestre de la universidad!! Pésimo el "efecto" de sombra, la tipografía "a mano" está mal hecha, muy mal... Coincido con Renzo, como cartelera quedaría increíble.

Qué valor para publicarlo aquí.

ssshing

ssshingon!

klaussnow's picture 1689 pencils

hmmm, can you say piggybacking??? hello McD's and that rising Sea level one!!!

... its already been done...

vote4pedro's picture 3789 pencils

bad photoshop even for a fake ad. aside from that, it reminds me too much of this great mcdonald's billboard

Rog's picture 6110 pencils

My thoughts exactly, v4P.
And this is a much smarter idea.

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

adstrike's picture 334 pencils

love this, one of the best outdoor ads... McDonalds i mean

rebelscum's picture 2120 pencils

U beat me to it.

But I expect to see a LOT of sundial/shadow stuff in the not-too-distant future.

mrtalented's picture 2175 pencils

looks fake

Alistair C.'s picture 692 pencils

fake, cheap and irrelevant. it advertises solar chips (that produce energy, right?) showing a shadow that... is not a form a energy.

Abra Cadabra's picture 102 pencils

I got the impression that this was a billboard for Sun Chips, the snack chips (you know, the stuff you eat).

Olafski001's picture 1156 pencils

this is A: fake and B: bad
the idea of playing with a shodow is great but it is not used in a smart way; like the mcdonalds one
(which i hadn't seen but is absolutely brilliant)

Kinky's picture 12 pencils

It doesn't look real. The shadow is too long.

®'s picture 126 pencils

emmmm... photoshop?

JFDreamer's picture 174 pencils

oahahaha

keep smilling

creativewannabe's picture 81 pencils

McDonald's outdoor - SUPERB

Solar chips - SUPERFICIAL

crazydave's picture 114 pencils

guys if you did this ad for real it would win an award, unfortunately it's fake and you did a really bad job of making it look real. It's a great idea, but a fake execution done badly. Get a real client.

mrtalented's picture 2175 pencils

it's not that good to win an award even it's real

FlyingTorpedo's picture 54 pencils

I think they used inDesign for this, hahahaha...terrible

Um, nobody noticed the letters are backwords? a shadow is a shadow, not a mirror.
