30 latest print ads - Clever and Creative!!
Charlie B. Johnson Comments  38

 

Have you ever wondered why we yell out for “Mc Donald’s” when out for lunch and opt for “Fedex” to send over a courier? It’s the strong and catchy advertisement of these brands which have overpowered our minds. Advertisement is not about creating a boring manual of a product but to say the innovative features of your product in a catchy way.

But remember, advertising and creativity go hand in hand. Creativity is not about doing extraordinary things simply, it is about doing simple things extraordinarily. An effective advertisement should be funny, clever, and distinctive.

I have compiled some enthralling pieces of graphic design from the world of advertisement which will boggle your minds. :)

Creative ad # 22

 

Creative ad # 23
 

Creative ad # 24
 

Creative ad # 25
 

Creative ad # 26
 

Creative ad # 27
 

Creative ad # 28
 

Creative ad # 29
 

Creative ad # 30

 

Different ideas exist on the nature of creativity in advertising. Some say it is inherent while others say it is developed through experience. However, I think an advertisement should be so catchy and snappy that your customer asks for you and only YOU.

So which of these ads you think is good enough to capture potential clients?

What the hell, why are all you image is GIF file. The dithering is hoorible. Learn how to save in proper format. And yet, you are creating a creative blog.

Charlie B. Johnson | January 20th, 2010 at 3:56 am

theLULAdesigns | January 21st, 2010 at 4:00 pm

I absolutely love #18, 22 and 29 because they blur the line between ad and installation art.

I think the kitkat one is great, not sure I would hold the hand in the bus though - its a little freaky but we are seeing more and more this type of advertising. Big advertising agency’s are having to think outside the box to return great results because it is easy to get this type of marketing wrong or too complex.

Some of these ads are pure genius.
Others are way over the top. Sometimes creative agencies get uber excited to the point where the marketing or campaign message is lost in translation. People look at the ad and think what on earth this is about. What really gets me angry is when ads win creative awards but the business for whom the ad is for loses money for the campaign.

HFB Advertising Agency | February 8th, 2010 at 10:38 pm

Awesome collection. A picture is really worth a 1000 words.

adroid85 | February 10th, 2010 at 7:17 pm

Great Collection. My favorite is #11 the FedEx ad. Very simple ad that quickly rewards the viewer with the message. I do like the Ikea ad but not sure about how good the message is…

adroid85 | February 10th, 2010 at 7:20 pm

Same feelings on #10 ComedyConcept and San Fran Web Design.

John loudon | February 12th, 2010 at 7:43 am

the ears for eyes thing is scary :P not so sure I would have approved that for a marketing concept, I guess it has the interest factor, but its a bit seedy…

good post :)

the i-fort | February 13th, 2010 at 4:20 am

wow, nice collection. creative, funny and intresting…..

1LTLos | February 16th, 2010 at 10:57 am

The computer age has certainly contributed to “loser advertising” How prosaic and predictable — The messages are lost behind the delusional visual cleverness — Thank God real Designers havent caved into this cheesy, easy waste of time and money ad campaigns!
