I love how everyone on here is like "Oh come on, give me a break, I had that in my student book." But yet no one ever posts all this glamorous award-winning work they've done...

hang-the-dj's picture 1270 pencils

Yep, I wanna see your version too.

I'm sorry, but i don't understand what you're trying to say.

Guest's picture

sorry done not by me but done by a lot of others a million times. stop lifting ideas. you might as well break into the cannes office and steal some awards..

go through www.coloribus.com you'll find it there.

ideas....30 minutes nahi toh free.

Patrizio's picture 87 pencils

Sorry, but this is not the same idea. It is better and a more clever observation than the others on coloribus.

I like it. Even if it's been done before. An in that case, I like the original too.

Bill Luz's picture

Done, done and done!!! Come on guys, tell me something about the product than just play with the cigarettes. My friend had this Ad 10 years. Its there, have a look: http://marcelolagoa.multiply.com/photos/photo/1/21.jpg

hang-the-dj's picture 1270 pencils

Didn't see it on the link dude.

Man, there are some haters out today.

I haven't seen this before so I like it.

Dreamigator's picture 432 pencils

For Cancer Foundation's ad it doesn't matter if it's ever done before. Doing something is better than watching and complain.

Something special is coming this way.

Shotgun is best of the 3...can't say the same for the other 2 though...those who claim it has been done cannot provide proof against the shotgun though.

jon moreno's picture

haist.. thats it?

errr.. im not a professional in this line of work, but i really like to evaluate advertising arts. So pls excuse my thoughts.

Guest's picture

Ok, I'm looked at these links you all are posting and yes, there is a similarity. I can not deny that, but the idea is a great one. And it is not the same. A star and a cross symbol on a cigarette does not make it the same. In fact, I think the way it was "re-done" as you all are saying it has been done here, is better, cleaner and a quicker GET. The illustration one with the tallys crossed out, I haven't seen that one. And it still is a quick GET.

We're supposed to be giving good criticism. If you don't like the ad, that's okay. But give reasons and then propose questions to the submitter of the ad on how to look at the problem they were trying to solve in a more creative way. For example, Did you try to use other symbols of smoking like an ash tray, or whatever?

The point is: Be constructive not mean.

Guest's picture

WITH YOU ALL THE WAY. There's way too much meaness on here.

saidukaringa's picture 220 pencils

roman-schwienbacher.com's picture 1027 pencils

so simple but so great.
but the shadow is a little over the top.

Pitts's picture

Just because someone has done an anti-smoking ad with a cigarette as the main visual before, doesn't make this an old idea. Shit I've done car ads with just a car and a headline...Does that mean I've ripped off Bill Bernbach?
The argument about this ad, as nice as it looks, should be about how emotive it is. Does it change perceptions? I think not.

Guest's picture

maybe it's okay for you to rip off bill bernbach. i think it's wrong.
this ad is kinda nice though. haven't seen it before. the visual's a tad too forced but it's okay.

Guest's picture

great! I love it

vinod gajghate's picture 2 pencils
