Comments on: 30 great print ads that tell a visual story – Part 1 http://www.bhatnaturally.com/advertising/30-great-print-ads-that-tell-a-visual-story/ Ramblings on Advertising, Apple and New Media Mon, 06 Feb 2012 17:54:13 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Martin Murphy (@MartinMurphy72) http://www.bhatnaturally.com/advertising/30-great-print-ads-that-tell-a-visual-story/#comment-5901 Martin Murphy (@MartinMurphy72) Tue, 15 Nov 2011 21:23:01 +0000 http://www.bhatnaturally.com/?p=3800#comment-5901 Very entertaining post! Some of the above are truly fantastic, using the visual medium of print to their fullest. (my favorite: the peanuts one with the elephants) Now, as much as I love to see these, I have a hard time supressing my feeling that 90% of the above are fake ads for award shows, or at best ads that were "cleaned up" for submission, and not what a consumer would see. The benchmark of running in being approved by a real client to run in a real publications, with a real budget, in front of real consumers most often proves insurmountable to so many of these types of ideas. Of course, this is why we have to value those that do beat this benchmark. Cheers, Martin Very entertaining post!
