Isn't this ad exactly someone else's vote in itself?

Half of advertising is stereotyping.

These are nice. Good solid idea and the art direction is nice (photography style is a wee bit trendy) But what are these ads for? They cover a whole bunch of issues. What are you selling in these ads? Are you simply saying vote? Vote in what? I know these are student work but the seem a little self indulgent. If you made for a specific election they'd ring more true. This may seem nit-picky but this work is good, it could be better. I come away thinking it's a nice thought but so what?

Tested these on everyone in the office. General response: "What does that mean?"

Rubbish.

These look good, but the only take out from these that I'm getting is that you should exercise your right to vote, whatever the issue. Which is true, but if that's all you're saying then You'd want that to be clear.

That tattoo on the neck is just for show.
Strip him naked and you'll probably find hundreds of panda bears tattooed all over his body! You thrash metal poseur... ; )

He's definitely for pandas.

Hey--some of the guys reading the dang ad may look exactly like this guy! Everyone has a vote, an opinion. The line is good but the idea is weak and flawed.

I get these and I love the other ones. This one isn't so good as Ad-Hugger has said (there's no stereotype about metalheads and animals as far as I know).
But the idea is excellent it would make me vote.

Off the brief line with badly picked photos. Could be a nice campaign, it turned out to be rubbish.

Complete and utter student shite!!!!!! Who's your teacher? I'd demand a refund! Check these ads out which were done about 4 years ago for Ministry of Sound (A UK nightclub). A lot more insightful.
