When you're out of egg (by using this swimwear) you really wanna get into the water soon

but i think the idea is too stretched though

egg contains amniotic fluid or water

it looks exactly the same with close-up metamophorself campaign in Indonesia.

I think this ad is depicting that moment when sea turtles are born and rush to the sea for the very first time.

Nice photo, poor idea.
Does anybody can explain me why?

Minimum's picture 1496 pencils

When seaturtles are born their instincts say that they need to go to the sea. The sea is their safehaven, their destiny, their life. This ad is trying to say, taht when you put on their swimclothing, you immediatly feel destined to go to the ocean, your safespot, your life. Because of this swimwear you wouldn't want to live your life any other way.

But that is just what I got out of it.

A long trip man!
Then, in this case, I think that the copy should change.
If the visual say me "Hey, I'm just born like a turtle" and of course I have never touched the sea before (and turtles are not the only animals that run toward the sea after having broken their own egg), they should underline that "you feel the sea as the safest area".

Everything sounds a little bit complicated.

DUDE! Did I really go through all the trouble above so you can beg others to explain it to you when you haven't even taken the effort to read other people's comments?

hahahaha french agency with italian creatives. all said.

ellehcimeo's picture 3534 pencils

This is such a stretch. Turtles lay their eggs in a hole all together, not all spread out like this. When they hatch they have to tunnel their way out from the sand. They didn't do the research at all. Shame on them. How are we really supposed to come to the understanding that this is like turtles making their way to the water out of instinct? How? No wonder we are all confused.
The photoshop is terrible. The idea is a stretch. This ad gets a -1 from me, the only thing saving it from a -2 is that they used really pretty people for the ad.

The creative is not bad, but I respectfully disagree with the phrase "You've never touched the water before".
