I don't understand! The want it to make 'modern' by giving it an old school art direction?

E Boy is so 1997!

Thanks! Agency resent the ad and fixed the error. Members spotting typos all the time should be getting payments for the proof reading services soon. :)

Exactly! They actually have said: Poverty is old school. And that's what they clearly didn't want to imply.

yep, e-boy have certainly carved their own isometric pixel style niche. Lots of illustration time in this i expect and copy paste of course! Can only really work for magazine advertising as you have to scrutinise the imagery to see the hidden messages/concepts, that said its always a pleasure to see.

Ehhh...stupid to read the so-called hipster I-know-my-background-bla-bla in relation to this campaign; ofcourse it's modern, it's on the internet, or already forgot about that fools? Eboy; pixels; computer-screen; inernet; hello? ...knowing E-boy since 1997; wow, you're someting special. Great campaign, good concept, nice execution.

one of the most dirtiest organisation in the world is amnesty international .
the are very good to critics israel but never arab country .
the dirty as some can be dirty one sided . like united nation .
never criticized american police or any america violation of the law or European country
no any Palestinian organisation that kill Israeli the support murder . amnesty international . pinko communist that support murder.
amnesty international . is about; making money. lieing .and murdering israeli.
