Ads of the World

Advertising doesn’t need to be all bright lights and flashy. It needs a simple idea, well executed.

  1. I think it’s pretty gutsy that they did this… Though we don’t see the whole sign we clearly know what it is… It does send the message through!

  2. The first one’s very effective for me!

  3. The top ad is genius. The message is clearly conveyed through it’s dynamic graphic, tagline (which could have also read, “Stop racism from running away with football) and the dot.com address. Love it!

  4. Hi Callie,

    The first example is my favourite of the three too. It’s been ages since I’ve been on this page of my blog, so thanks for commenting!
