Not the first time the original classic ad was reinterpreted:

Is that what the ad is trying to say though? that sharpie is there when you concept? an ad aimed at creatives? ehhh.

so.. normal people would care and undestand??

if this ran in an advertising magazine it would make sense.

Good ideas are permanent. I think its a good thought, the artdirection isnt bad either.

Tell me you are joking, right? How come it's a good thought, if the normal audience couldn't understand what this ad is about? Why make an ad only for advertising people?

if you read what i said you would understand, i said if it ran just for the advertising industry it would make sense.

Imagine this ad in Lürzers or Campaign or maybe a National Egyptian advertising magazine, wouldnt it make sense there? who reads those crappy magazines except creatives in advertising?

If this ad was real which i doubt very much, the brief would have been something like this:

The brief: Create a print ad for our permananet pens that would attract artists & creatives.
SMP: Permanent pens, ink that never fades.
Target audience: Purely people in advertising
Media: one page ad in Egyptian Campaign Magazine

POOOOOOOOR!!
just for advertising people!!
Please don't do this again JWT Cairo.. guys you are Much better than that .. (Pharaoh)

I see MATCHSTICK!!

I misunderstood your comment justpassingby therefore I agree with your comment. However like you said if this ad was targeting purely people in advertising area still too much area that missed in this idea.

What you people all seem to forget is that alot of ads made nowadays are directed towards the award shows. Alot of bureaus make the choice of doing an 'award-ad'. This is a good one. Indeed the regular public would not get this. But it is not aimed towards that public.

How many housewives or carpenters use a sharper marker pen designed for creatives?

...and let the poets cry themselves to sleep. And all their tearfull words would turn back into steam

hi justpassingby, how much were you given to promote this crap, even a maze is easier to understand than this, do you always give your audience headache? i work with JWT Lagos and we dont do stuffs like this!

hahaha - that's probably why we dont see your names at Cannes.

If at first you dont succeed... don't try parachuting
