DECATHLON, Train at home: To all the cocky arrogant bastards.

DECATHLON: Train at home

“Domyos exercycle only at Decathlon”

The same idea comes from Almap BBDO and far better and smarter execution (but not visuals). With one it was three people on treadmill set in a row: first was a young lover running, than it was fat rich jealous husband with a gun, the third was his wife. The other was a robber on first treadmill, and than a cop behind him. The copy was something like ‘get in shape’. Come to think of it this is not really like that at all, at least sufficiently different.

Anyway love the colours and location, great shot. But whose house does looks like this? I really wish I could relate.

National Sea Rescue Institute, Fire, water and government know nothing of mercy

National Sea Rescue Institute: 38

National Sea Rescue Institute: 58

National Sea Rescue Institute: 57

National Sea Rescue Institute: 23

National Sea Rescue Institute: 9

National Sea Rescue Institute: 67

“He’s 38, because we’re 40. Sea Rescue. Saving lives since 1967.”

I tell you in point form what I like here:

  • Nice photography.
  • Nice layout, kind of portfolio look to them. Not brilliant just… nice.
  • Simple and striking
  • Great locations.
  • Lovely real subjects
  • Rally good but true styling
  • It really is a good copy to the ads.And, same what I do not like:
  • Too many ads. They may have hit on a good idea and visuals but maybe stopping at some point is a good idea also. Perhaps the art team liked all of the photographers work and just had to use most of them.Overall I see a really lovely campaign for a really great company.

    Mutual Community Health Insurance, The sum of intelligence on the planet is a constant; the population is growing

    Mutual Community Health Insurance: GI Joe Boy

    “After 70 years we’ve seen it all.”

    Mutual Community Health Insurance: Skydiver

    Mutual Community Health Insurance: Basketball

    Hilarious, reminded me of all the ridiculous late-night stories you hear from the emergency ward. The kid with GI Joe definitely links us to our own childhood or our own kids.

    Quite a funny, slapstick ads. I am not a fan of the strong posturised look on the subject which really only bothers me in the Skydiver shot. But nice light and funny with fairly office/medical look of blue-green tone wash.

    Harvey Nichols, If you want your spouse to listen and pay strict attention to every word you say, talk in your sleep

    Harvey Nichols: Fashion statement, 1

    “Harvey Nichols Fashion statement”

    Harvey Nichols: Fashion statement, 2

    Harvey Nichols: Fashion statement, 3

    I think the shots are really compelling. They really speak for its concept, and just generally the fisuals are fantastic, deffinetly fun. A cool Harvey Nichols campaign. There is a bunch of other ads with speach bubles like Trendy’s cartoon illustations with word bubble making a physical impact. But not quite the same. Also ruther obviously these are photos.

    Trendy Discover Chewing Gum

    Trendy Discover Chewing Gum: Hey

    Trendy Discover Chewing Gum: Hola

    Anyway I think they are sufficiently original (the execution if not the idea/props) and look quite fantastic. Great locations, clean crisp and not over retouched. Lovely photography.

    I like this, good outdoor advertising. Quite different, very eye-catching. Would be surprised to see notes and not old shoes on these urban power lines. I am sure it has been done for other media before somewhere.

    Volkswagen Golf R32: Perfectly tuned

    Volkswagen Golf R32: Perfectly tuned

    I think it is quite nice, maybe the nicer of the car ads I have seen of recent. It’s nice top light and looks so good suspended, makes it that much sharper… “Tuned” I suppose. To make the point the space and the suspension as well as the lighting look like gallery art insulation. I suppose the ad has nothing particular VW about it but I am nitpicking. Lovely isn’t it?
