the message should convey very strong, but i think the ad is not up for it.

Its "warm" but aint burning. i need a stronger image for such a terrible crime.

The image just sais murder or violence in india in a too subtle way. But doesnt talk about the discrimination and hate crimes.

What could be stronger than this image, please tell me?
It's the simplest, most direct piece of communication on this page, well done

the idea of a 'bindi' looking like blood/gun shot is fine. but the execution (read photoshop job) is not good

me myself and irene's picture 1246 pencils

why is it not good? i see a very correct art direction in this ad...

Very westernised concept. Indians are not a trigger happy lot like the West. So showing a gun shot is a mismatch with girls being killed in India. Time to get the basics right buddy. Don't see the world through western goggles!

Olafski001's picture 1156 pencils

the idea is good but not great
the execution is ok but not good
so the ad is nice but not brilliant

I agree with Olafski001, but I still wish I had it in my book.

What the Puck am I doing here?

sorry, but i've already seen this idea months before.
they did it for unicef i think.

Guest's picture

maybe unicef copied this idea!

BorisTheSprinkler's picture 24 pencils

i don't think so.

i saw the unicef-ad ages ago. sorry dear guest: they were definitely first.

Thats not a gun shot or westernized concept.... Women in India stick Bindi on their forehead thats red in color, its kinda accessory... And that bindi is round in shape and is considered very beautiful and i feel this ad shows the beauty of being a girl has become a curse for the girls ...

Very strong idea!

abdou's picture 76 pencils

The idea is great, but the picture doesn't make a shaking effect. They should have made the drop go down on the side of the girl's face (which is more dramatic)and leave a thin trail.

On the other hand, India's major problem doesn't lie in foeticide... People there don't die because they are from a sex or another, but because they just don't find what to eat...!

is ok
