congratulations Dave Ferrer and Tin Sanchez! You made it!

Correction: This is Joey Ong's work. And Dave just tinkered with it.

Ex-JWT's picture

Correction: This is primarily Joey Ong's work. And Dave just souped it up a bit.

Tin, however talented, was not involved.

It's a shocking ad and brilliant execution.

Cannes Finalist's picture

What's the fuss all about? Why do you people like this ad? This is the most hyped up and overblown ad i've ever seen--ridiculously plain and doesn't give any meaning. Doesn't deserve any award nor praise if you ask me.

This is undoubtedly a good creative with a strong message put across subtly. However, Mr Cannes Finalist, ur credentials are doubtful...

how they did it!

Cannes Finalist's picture

Okay, i still have one word to describe this ad: OVERRATED. And to tidbitz: i wouldn't want to think your nickname remarkably describes, in exact precision, the size of your cranial cavity. so shut up cause it's my opinion, not yours.

Guest's picture

Cannes Finalists are expected to have IQ that ranges above the common ground squirrel.
This ones' seems to be below than a maggot's. What a pity. You opinion stinks of jealousy.
So keep your trap shut, you stingy megalomaniac.

When I choose a word...it means just what I choose it to mean...neither more nor less.
And the word for Cannes Finalist: "WITLESS TWIT".
And I'm sure this remarkably describes, in exact precision, the highest rating he would've ever got for an IQ test designed for under 6 years of age.

Catwah's picture 58 pencils

very nice visual. it looks great. but i dont think there's any communication here! if you decipher it... "recycle paper. save trees". so, we have to go and recycle the paper that's being shown in the image. visually that take's away the trees aswell then doesn't it? like i said, it's a great visual, but i don't think it delivers a very 'greenpeace' message. if anyone agrees?
