Fish be with you.

I'm starting to get sick & tired of this 'looks real' or 'just like real' or 'it's like you're there' concepts for LCD.
this is another one. nothing new, nothing special, nothing memorable...

I don't care if it's the same message as long as they show me the message in a fresh and interesting way. How many benefits can one product have? The key feature of a flat screen HDTV is that the picture is spectacular. I didn't give a shit about anything else besides the picture quality when I was shopping for my flat screen.

Kateter's picture 2040 pencils

fair enough. I was just stating my opinion.

juliangray's picture 1003 pencils

He wasnt refering to the benefit itself (which is related exclusively to the product) but to the concept.

They are just saying "REAL LIFE PICTURE QUALITY" but failing to keep working on what happens with that benefit to take the concept further. Conceptually, its shallow, thats all. We know that with a HD TV the idea has to comunicate a great resolution and wide color range, but writing "great resolution and wide color range" shouldnt be enough.

The creative idea itself is correct but not impressive (which is the whole point with this visual sintesys of ads).

This should have been his response but I like the points your bring up. I agree that the message is quite shallow. However, I was mainly refuting the original poster's comment on how this piece is "nothing new, nothing special, nothing memorable...". I think a simple, although shallow, message that gets the point across in a fresh and interesting way can be new, special, and memorable. I'm not saying any of us are in the right or wrong, just different strokes for different folks I suppose.

You're nothing but hot wind.

Miserable childhood can't be cured.

Kateter's picture 2040 pencils

and you seem to be the shining example.
insulting people for being nice.

thirty6chambers's picture 1472 pencils

Nice! I like the concept but the line could use a bit of work.

joanna gorilla's picture 88 pencils

Great work inspite of hot wind and sourgraping creeps with uti problems.

V Nice, it's a small point, but I'd have cloned out every other joining line in the wood so it didn't cut through the copy.

Congratulations

Brainsugar's picture 1540 pencils

Boring. In agencies there is a strategic planing. Can they help to say something more interesting that this is flat, real etc...?
Colors like no others. THIS is a concept.
Just like reality, not any more.

juliangray's picture 1003 pencils

respect!

In my opinion this ad is completely ridiculous.

Jimdjango's picture 15 pencils

What if the someone was actually feeding the fish and they were interacting with the real world. Then say something like "Experience it."

pretty much this exact ad was done years ago. except it was a tv sitting next to an aquarium.

akimbrell009's picture 2 pencils

there's no need for copy.

joanna macaque's picture 30 pencils

No need to put it here.

kgeiger's picture 6642 pencils

But WTF are they watching? The Aquarium Discovery Channel?

tantrik_indian's picture 953 pencils

There was some other LCT TV ad with fish. I agree it is getting a tad tiresome.

Ok. I actually art directed this ad 5 or 6 years ago. It's old. It really ain't that good. I'm not sure it was every brilliant but it is now certainly showing its age. I agree with most of the positive AND negative comments above.
