Not Just for Yoga

Evan — Wed, 12 Sep 2007 00:00:00 -0400

lululemon is branded pretty heavily as yogawear when in fact the gear is perfect for other activities as well.

idea is to help them branch out into other markets.

images of people in various sporting activies all with the same tag line "lululemon's aren't just for yoga"

Milk Chocolate: A Love story

Giant Ant Media — Fri, 02 May 2008 18:47:20 -0400

This ad was created to go with our previous "Chocolate Love" as part of a chocolate holiday series. Chocolate Love was for Valentine's Day, so dealt with passion. This add is for Easter, and focuses on love and re-birth... and bunnies. An ideal client would be Lindt or Purdy's

404 page-Wall of Shame

Corey Rollins — Tue, 29 Jul 2008 14:57:36 -0400

This is my submission for the AdHack 404 page. Complete with wall of shame, dunce cap boy and some snappy remarks ahaha. I tried to make something that used "AdHack" as the focal point, instead of my other concepts which involved well known pop cultural references. Any feedback on that logic? Perhaps it's just crazy talk?

And just incase it's hard to read, here is the active HTML for the copy

Copy for 404 page:

Dah! This is why we can't have nice things.

Sorry we couldn't do much with your request. We feel shame.

Perhaps a recommended link will make things better?

My Take on a Flickr ad

Paschal Ssemaganda — Thu, 02 Oct 2008 18:56:28 -0400

Since I became a flickr member I have marveled at the company's ability to grow its community with little obvious advertising on the web or elsewhere.
This is one of the reasons Flickr is a necessary case study for anyone attempting to create a web community.

For this ad, I used one of my own images and a generous helping of Flickr's corporate identity.
(Please don't sue me)

As usual, my focus is on copy here so I took my inspiration from the classic VW Ads by DDB from the 60s and 70s. The big image with the logo, placed to imitate Flickr's home page. Naturally, I had to big up my own work, but the attribution is standard.

Flickr is unlikely to take out a full page ad (in a magazine no less) so I have cropped the image to look as much like a polaroid as possible.

This might work for a newsletter of a web announcement where the copy discusses new features or recognizes the community or something like that.

AdHack Launch Party - It's Here

chad brealey — Tue, 05 Aug 2008 19:34:05 -0400

This is a poster concept I created for the AdHack beta launch party.

I thought this classic poltergeists image was a great piece of eye candy for AdHack. It just works in a weird, creepy way.

This final version you see here had some effects and touch-ups courteous of fellow AdHacker Corey Rollins.

Royal BC Museum Postcard: We're pretty cool

Jason — Wed, 01 Aug 2007 00:00:00 -0400

The museum is cool. Maybe not a cool as the Ice Age...

This is a poster intended for a youth audience and is meant to tie into their learning of past climates and species.

Give 'em what they want...

Be careful what you wish for... you may just get it at Playland

Is there anywhere better to take your kid this summer?

Engine Matters Part 3

iamelectro — Fri, 09 May 2008 00:00:00 -0400

Part 3 in the series. This one speaks for itself. This one is more of a spoof to show the aging characteristic of a stereotypical Lexus owner. The others compared Lexus to Audi, while this one relies on the 'engine matters' tagline to assume the same comparison without actually showing the Audi brand.

Tegan & Sara Poster

Jason — Wed, 01 Aug 2007 00:00:00 -0400

Cool skeletons for cool girls.

It's a gig poster... you know, for a band.
