"Creativity does not equal sales"
Is the trick in the blood getting faint?
I don't get this one
DONE...years ago in tv.
Sorry, but I´ve seen this idea a hundred times before.
it's time people started appreciating art, rather than just criticise it...so u saw it on TV, but how many times have you actually gone and contributed blood? this ad is a perfect reminder, so go ahead and congratulate the guy who did it....give credit man, give credit....what say, whitespace?
erm... I don't like the font? hahahaha
I'm a blood donor myself... this ad does nothing for me. :) I prefer the very thin red cross ad.
well at least there is an idea. but dont really think its a good one. sorry. people at dentsu malaysia, work harder.
I don`t remember the exact year maybe 2004-2005 in cannes won a Blood Donation Ad from South Africa. The headline was written with blood, it said soomething like this:
SEE, LOOSING BLOOD FOR A GOOD CAUSE IS NOT BIG DEAL.
Of course: http://adsoftheworld.com/media/print/south_african_national_blood_service
the felt is running out of ink.

Well, it reminds me of this "Donate Blood" ad that ran with the words SOS written exactly the same way.

idea is gr8!
but execution is poor. font has to be expressive (like actually written by blood)
So many complain when an idea mirrors another, it’s hard to say it would have been better in blood.
I personally think it would be better in blood looking copy.
The message is solid “give, or there will be a shortage”. Good Job.

Havent seen similar stuff before. And my instant reaction was 'WOW'...
Simplicity is good advertising. This so simple it simply bores.
