Windows Vista Print Ads

What is your take in MS New Zealand's recent print advertising efforts for Windows Vista ? Centered on the idea of the leisure at the house, with this series accompanied by the baseline “Fun up your home”. An idea of the agency Young & Rubicam, and a strong will to show a younger and connected image.

Great McDonald's TVC's from all over the world

For inspiration and fun, i have gathered some of the best and most memorable McDonald's TV spots that i found over at YouTube. Most of these are really fresh, fun and heartwarming - the direction that all McDonald's commercials seem to take.

McDonald's is one of those global brands who has gone beyond race and geography and has reached a global mass appeal that is phenomenally unbeatable. And these kind of TV spots have helped in creating and empowering that global appeal.

Pantene India's "Strong Hair" Ambient Campaign

Why not do something like (see below) this for the local Pantene brand instead of using celebrities who seem to be in a perennial state of mawkish stupor? Is it due to the Philippine's culture and general consciousness? Is Imelda Marcos right in saying "I know my little people want to see a star. Other presidents' wives have gone to the barrios wearing house dresses and slippers. That's not what people want to see. People want someone they can love, someone to set an example."? Do we need really need the "stars" to dictate what a quality product is? The bigger the "star", the better the product?

Why not try something different and smart Pantene (Philippines)?

Pantene India's Ambient Campaign
Challenge: Pantene makes hair strong hair and objective was to bring the communication at various consumer touch points.

Solution: A poster with a real plait hanging from the back of a head was stuck on the doors of malls, supermarkets and beauty salons. The plait served as the door handle and each time patrons ‘pulled’ the hair handle, the core benefit of Pantene was communicated in an interesting manner.

Result: Apart from bringing a lovely smile to the lips of patrons, it created greater brand awareness and an increase in enquiries at the Pantene beauty counters set up at these touch points.

Agency: Grey Worldwide, Mumbai, India

Mastercard's "Priceless" Valentines proposal


Whether this is cooked up (Hannah knowing that her beau would do this) or not, the experience is definitely priceless and really romantic. Hay, the things you do for love. Kudos to Mastercard for having such a focused campaign on a Valentines. I could just imagine the extravaganza when Mastercard sponsors a wedding proposal... hmmm, that will be exciting.

Fitnesst First's Bus Stop: Weigh in or weigh out?

With the various credit card treacheries and scams allegedly being practiced by our local FitnessFirst, aside from the almost bothering method of their marketing, could adapting this ambient campaign be more effective? What do you think?

(Click this for a larger view!)

Fitness First health club converted a bench (at a bus stop) to a weighing machine showing people their measured weight in poster space and make them realize that they should hit the gym. Created by N=5, The Netherlands.
