What’s Eating AdArena.net?

I’d like to appologize to everyone who’s still reading this blog for leaving it behind and not even writing a line of explanation.

sadly, I have to announce that AdArena.net will go into hybernation sleep (as it already did for a while).

reason? I’m not as interested in advertising currently as I used to be. hopefully I’ll change my mind soon (wouldn’t be the first time) and get back. but for the time being, unless some of the other editors of AdArena post something, this blog is pretty much dead.

sorry.

Durex: Love Is Blind (Durexhibit Winner)

durex: love is blind 1durex:hre love is blind 2

Yet another hilarious Durex ad.

This time, they simply crowdsourced the whole thing. Tested idea, can’t go wrong. The credit and a shitload of condoms goes to Samuel Michael, a fresh artschool graduate (which means he’ll surely use his prize wisely and with moderation).

You can check the runners-up on the Durexhibit site.

Plastic Polar Bears

This is a recent Ogilvy NY save-the-planet piece, featuring artwork made by Joshua Allen Harris a few months ago. DIY animal street sculptures made of discarded plastic bags, inflated by the subway airflow! How cool is that? Great idea, and the message fits it well.

horny bambi - axe

Cute Babies and Animals are the road to success! (please not the sarcasm) Yet - Axe made a refreshing and unusual spot with bambi. But then again - animals don’t really fit the brand…….

iScrewed Me

we’ve been iScrewed before always when buying Apple products, always new products being introduced within a week of our purchase, so it’s easy to relate to this mocking video.
at the same time, keeping us totally hooked on Apple stuff tells volumes about the strength of that juicy brand.
