i don't get it. hey, wait... now i got it. maybe. i got it, yeah. I guess... hahaha. good. kind of.
I like this campaign, copy and art work well together
Did Canada have a pixel sale? Two campaigns in a row. I like it though.
Solid ad.
good concept
that's good.
This isn't an ad this is PROPAGANDA, plain and simple. Oye freegin vay are you kidding me already, next they'll be wanting to be able to look through anyone's webcam and say its to protect kids from child molesters.
The world is coming to an end, ALIENS, New World Order, Acid Rain, Terror Alert Pantone Red 032, Dimpled Chad, 9/11, Katrina, H2 HUMMER, Florinated Water, Dick Cheney, Anthrax... don't worry Obama will save the day.
Cheers to freedom!

please correct me... here you guys have shown the victim and not the potential crime stopper... because, the victim will obviously react to the situation in one or the other way... one of them being fighting back... he is not a crime stopper in that case... he is just reacting.
kind of ok i guess, but the pixelized image idea is getting REALLY old. legos is even doing it (for some odd reason)

so what? i like the way pixels were used in this ad. good concept [2]
Go through all the Cannes winners and you'll see the same ideas winning every year.
For a long while it was the small big technique. Loud band is a midget band with sound proof glass.
Ever since Casio mini T.V's did people eating mini T.V dinners there's been a big small technique winning at Cannes every year. There are a whole host of other styles as well that win year in and out, even the same ideas, so, I wouldn't single out pixelation as a technique that is over used.
Olá, a idéia já foi feita pela MPM Propaganda, Brasil. Foi premiada no 34º anúario do Clube de Criação de São Paulo. Veja a peça brasileira: http://adsoftheworld.com/media/print/disquedenuncia_instituto_minas_pe...
