And why mix ideas? Why throw in the curled page corner? Just makes it worse.

This is just plain deplorable work.
Whenever a minority shop (in this case, a Hispanic agency) produces an ad or a campaign, it almost always feels like a complete departure from the brand work... A client hires a minority shop because of their special understanding/insight into a specific audience it wants to reach.
Now I don't know what the copy is saying here, but looking at what's in front of me, seems like VISA just wasted their money calling on their "special services"...

Are these "ground breaking?" Of course not.

But, whether you like them or not, they're for a CREDIT CARD!!!

What does that mean? What do these credit card things do???

They allow you to do what you want NOW and pay for it later.

Hence the "Life is now" line.

And in each example, they relate to what the particular person wants/wants to do NOW.

So in THAT regard, they work. Do people actually stop and read ads anymore? Who the f knows.
