This campaign for Amnesty International placed plastic hands grasping on drains, with “Wrong Colour/ Wrong Opinion/ Wrong Faith” branded across them, giving the impression that someone was trapped behind the bars of the drain. I think this is a simple yet effective way to drive how the horrific fact that in too many places around the world, people are being punished and locked up for having a certain belief or looking a way that differs to the regime under which they live.

I’ve seen various campaigns and art pieces that attempt to make use of cursors, tags, and other computer-specific elements in the physical world, and they always intrigue me, but when it’s executed beautifully, it really piques my interest. This ‘mobile’ on-ground communication created by Ogilvy Beijing consists of a giant computer cursor slapped on to the sides of DHL’s vans around Beijing’s Central Business District, effectively announcing DHL’s ‘24-7’ online tracking. Apparently successful, DHL’s phone tracking line has had a decrease in traffic, while online tracking clicks surged. Pretty simple. Pretty effective. Cool stuff.

The World Class surprise ad. For the launch of World Class new flagship gym in Stockholm, caricature artists were put on strategic places making free portraits of Saturday strollers.

To promoting the WINZIP data compressing program, the German agency G&P made an ambient campaign where they turned a power distribution box in front of a house into a replica miniature version of the house. The advertising banner on the front of the house read: “We compress everything. WINZIP”. I hope they made more replica miniatures then this to get a better impact. You could basically make a miniature of anything. Well anyways, like the idea.

There are 111 Maui's dolphins left in existence. Our brief was to raise awareness of this issue in the lead up to a crucial parliamentary vote on net fishing. THe solution is simple. In the weeks before the vote, life-siza Maui's dolphins began appearing "trapped" in high profile fences across Auckland, inbluding the front fence of parliament. The campaign received both TV and press coverage. The result of the vote has not yet been revealed.

And the winner is:

This is a cool idea. It's for Mini-Cooper (BMW) in Spain. A giant mousetrap. On the front of the trap it says: "Let it be caught". These installations where seen in public places all around spain. I don't know the agency.
