Advertising : unique.

i'm sharing some printed advertisements that really interest me.
it's just about the ideas.
feel free to discuss these ads wt me!
______________________________________________

which from these 3 are the best do you think?



for me personally, i like all of them, great color executions.
(i have to choose?? ok, i'll choose orange. it's the freshest one to my eyes.)
but the concept is actually a bit forced. it's a summer theme,
and why is the goldfish swimming around there?
is goldfish identical to summer?
__________________________________________________

heyya. this is interesting! street ad, simple yet bright.

















__________________________________________________

which one do you think is the best? i like the hand one.
a bit creepy. lols.

































__________________________________________________

this is actually a print ad.
awesome execution isn't it?? i love it...
























______________________________________________

oh these 3 are a magazine print ads. it's about a knife.
if u can see on the bottom right corner,
it shows that these are 2 pages ads. wt 3 different versions.
it's really a fresh idea! smoothly done!! bravo!




















































_________________________________________________

the tag sounds like this, "when congestions is bigger than you"
the nose image is a bit disturbing. but at ur first impression,
you just notice that this is a nose-matter commercial, uh?
(of course you do!)






















________________________________________________

sooooo simple.
sooooo imaginative.
sooooo catchy!

Photography Art : Kora - Kora

waa... another picture i took at Dufan at that time (same day as the merry go round one)
it was kinda hard to take the perfect angle actually.
it swung and swung all over again, well since my camera can't capture moving objects,
so maybe this one doesn't look really maximum. but i still like it. hehehe.
for you guys who doesn't know what kind of ride is this, this is a swinging boat we called 'kora-kora' - i don't know what this mean, it's still feels weird for me.
well, it was my favourite at one time, but now it's kinda boring to ride a huge boat that takes u swing and swinging till your tummy feels wanna spread out. huehehehe.
it's not that the nauseous thing that makes me bored, but i'd found those more interesting rides...more scary and challenging ones huehehehehe.
what i like from this pic is how we can see the atmosphere where people is screaming over the boat - sorry if details doesn't work here, you should see the real pixels tho. hehe.
don't know what else, but i just like this. hee hee.
enjoy!

Photography Art : It's Us!

it's us hee. hee. hee.

i made this frame from an old unused chocolate box.

then i put some 'akar wangi' on frame,

and as you can see the brown flower-shaped thing inside, maybe it's dried nutmeg or something. i don't really know.

this frame is on one of my room wall.

looks nice, eh? hihihihi.

a white tan was tainted by sore.

numbed by cold zephyr.

in this circumstances,

thy never wish for a cease.

yet felt paralyzed.

utterly bare.

footprints on the sand,

buffed over the breeze.

plain.

petrified.

Photography Art : Merry-Go-Round

everybody knows Merry-Go-Round. it's one of my all time favorite ride.
except for those who's afraid of heights..
well, this one is from Dufan, Jakarta, as you can see, not as big as what we can see in Malaysia or elsewhere that has larger one.
i still enjoy this sea view Merry-Go-Round, which i adore this big wheel since i was a kid.
it's kinda pathetic when i rode it, i saw some maintenance is not really well done you know, well i'm not talking about safety, but talking about aesthetic and tidiness.
for 10 years i haven't seen any significant change from this ride. anything. even the paint doesn't change!
ahm. call me idealist. but you guys must agree that we really need refreshment on the design, maintenance and environtment.
see how those foliages covers up the beauty.
oh. people is really neglecting about eyes' needs of aesthetics...
i took this before i went home at that time, about evening.. i don't remember the actual time..
hope you guys enjoy this pic.

and for all Indonesians, let's LOVE our nation, not just TALK about DEMANDING.
DO SOMETHING!! even small things!!

sorry if too many combined posts here, as i said once again, i'm trying to explore more.
this time i want to share one of my passion, photography. which i got a sip of knowledge from the major i took before.
well, i might be extremely amateur, but i have a passion in it, to learn more further about this.
i want to share my photo art, for the first time actually.. and i'll tell you the story about each, which can speak more than you can ever imagine..

this piece is kind of my favorite.
i took this one at Beijing, China.
i don't remember exactly where the place is,
but surely i like this one.
it was winter there, and i had the 'cold' feeling at that time,
so i caught up something that brings me peace and warmth,
while i heard birds singing, it was early morning, then it came to this portrait of view.

hope you'll like my first piece of post. hee hee.

More Nice Ads.

i found this as an social advertisement in India.
geez! it's weird.
hope you guys can few it well enough to details (and maybe think about trying afterwards? LoLs)

do you have any idea what ad is this?
neither do i. at first i can't notice why it has to shape like that. i thought it was ruined or something.
in fact, after i saw the title, it's about push up bra...
the idea is about it's so pushing your boobs, until the pendant you wear near got bent. ha. simple and catchy idea!

M&M's!!!
who doesn't know??
this is the cutest one i've ever seen i guess.

it's really catchy and hilarious! don't you think so??

i can't comment anymore about this one, it's totally awesome.
actually it has its own series of M&M's election edition, casted by blue, green, yellow, red and orange. and this orange one is the best! xixixixixii. really love it.
