This television commercial introduces the ANZ (Australia and New Zealand Banking Group) Fraud Squad, a team of ANZ employees doing whatever it takes to help protect ANZ customers from online credit card fraud. In this ad the boss tests making an unauthorised internet purchase on a card, resulting in the card omitting helium gas (rather than poisonous gas).

Philips announced a sequel to the stunning project last year, called Carousel . The new campaign is called Parallel Lines and invites five directors of the Association Ridley Scott to run five different short films. The short films are launched in preview on the 7th of April through the Facebook page of Phillips. And they know how to create curiosity..

Everybody knows when kids get bored they do the craziest things, and these aren’t always the safest. Bored kids can be very dangerous, as illustrated in following print ads. Solution? According to Energizer you just have to make sure their toys are always powered.

This is a really scary campaign against smoking, but surely it will be very effective. Never saw this concept before, but aparantly it’s done before in The Netherlands AND in France. The clip still remains really good, and hopefully it won’t lose it’s effect this time in Cananda.

Today the 21st Winter Olympics start in Vancouver Canada. Four years ago it was held in Torino, Italy. At that time McDonald’s was an official sponsor and this advertisement was made for that occasion. It looks like the Golden Arches of the Fast-Food chain but they are actually the front part of the skis.

Two weeks ago we’ve posted “The dog life of Salty’, the little salt-cellar that lost his home because of the low-salt sidekick meals of Knorr. In that last post he was trying to look for a job and hook up with a girl. But Salty wasn’t that lucky in both cases.
Maybe today he is?
Remember ‘Salty’?
He’s the little salt-cellar that lost his home because of the low-salt sidekick meals of Knorr?
Well the little fellow is looking for a new job and happiness. But it isn’t easy for him to survive in this cruel world..
Check out his video chat adventure with this cute girl..

The commercials for Bud light are legendary for a long time, and they prove again they are more than worthy to this image. Nothing more than good humour and guys drinking beer. Enjoy!

This advertisement was placed in a swimming pool to raise the environmental awareness about the risks of global warming. The city’s skyline is completely immersed in water. The writing on the wall: “Don’t let this be our future. Save our rainforest, stop global warming.”

Imagine: you’re sitting in the cinema, watching a good movie and forgetting everything around you. Suddenly you see a projection on the screen. It’s not someone with a little lazer light, but you see names and prices of IKEA products projected on the furniture in the movie..
After the movie, somebody is so kind to give you a catalogue with all the IKEA products in it..
Believe it or not, but this has been a campaign for IKEA in Germany in order to promote Ikea products among young people. The agency (DDB) equipped guerilla teams with some powerful portable projectors and sent them into the cinemas.
Even if I must admit that this is cunning plan of IKEA and DDB, I wouldn’t appreciate it at all.
Brad Pitt wouldn’t either I think..
