good work

Guest's picture

What makes you think this is a good ad?
It works on all drinks, hence it fails.

Guest's picture

That not alwais is bad, because it works with the benefit of the product.

Crisp One's picture 2031 pencils

it doesn't matter if it works on all drinks, they are the ones to point it out.

Most products are the same, how the hell do you think they make themselves stand out.

Guest's picture

No it DOES matter. Obviously, you haven't been to an ad school or read books about advertising.
If a certain product has no unique benefit, you should create a certain personality for it.
The golden rule of advertising: if your ad works perfectly for another product, then it's not a good ad.
I like the idea, but it can work on just any diet drink. Sorry.

Wordnerd's picture 6575 pencils

obviously you have been to an advertising school and read a lot of books on advertising. but as obviously you haven't worked in advertising. now why don't you go create a nice, cuddly personality for milk, the world doesn't need?

it's milk for christ sake! this is not about some lifestyle brand

Guest's picture

Hey nerdy nerd, ask any reputable creative director, and he'll tell you that this ad sucks.

Wordnerd's picture 6575 pencils

go read a book. Or ask your reputable cd about something smarter to write here

Guest's picture

Go drink some of that milk. You need to grow up, Nerdy.

Crisp One's picture 2031 pencils

Hey Guest, your spineless anonymity aside, lets go down memory lane, green Beer bottles, lucky strike cigarettes " Its Toasted", etc... they all say something that the other competing product do, but they are the first to say it. So, believe it or not, that is the benefit, they are the first to say it, so, they own that, and that makes them different.Granted this is not a great ad, and they don't quite do a good job at owning the "skinny face" attribute, but my argument stands.

secondly, Id like to be in the room when you use the term U.S.P. and everyone around laughs at you, or is at leased thinking it in their head.

Hey nice!

Guest's picture

Agree with the before-above comment. This works for all milk brands, even all drinks that come with straw, hence it's an epic fail.
All those who shouted "nice!" should go learn a thing or two about advertising. Leo Burnett go sell falafel!

No, this do not work for all milk brands... or all drinks that come with straw. See more carefully.
Well done.

THis is so COPIED dude!!!!!!!!! here is the link

here is the exact version of wht has been done here....

Chunk's picture 32 pencils

'Dude'.. do you honestly think that the creative team got a brief for 'slim milk' and then giggled and laughed and rubbed their hands together mischievously and said "hmmm.. what can we find to copy? Let's search through all the advertising books in the world until we find something.. and then copy it exactly the same.. mwahhhhhh."

No, you moron. They have a product with a similar proposition to a million other products and.. unsurprisingly.. they ended in a place someone else has been. I'm sure it was sheer coincidence.. the result of similar briefs. Happens all the time.

Great job guys.. sorry someone else has done it.. but that doesn't take anything away from your great idea. Just means you probably won't win metal for it (but maybe you will, even so.. that also happens).

Liverpudillian's picture 58 pencils

good and simple

Guest's picture

I Think it needs text.
The consumer may be confused with just the image and a good slogan may complete and help the message become more easy to remember.
Anyway, nice work!
