I just stumbled upon this site via Computerlove (I go to Computerlove everyday to check out goodies and it rarely disappoints). And speaking of goodies, there are loads to be had on the Canadian Design Resource site. I particularly enjoyed the fashion (the "stop staring at my toonies" t-shirt is hilarious), toys and packaging pages. Also, be sure to check out what I consider to be one of the best Canadian designs of all time - the Windsor Salt box. Great, no?
As the 2008 First Boards Awards are only a few days away (April 3 in NYC), this is probably your last chance to vote for the people's choice award. Full details are here.
Lowe Strateus, Paris, has created this campaign asking women to please use Miss Epil. I agree with some of the comments on AdLand; the idea of men coming equipped with a map is great but the tagline of "Ladies please use" lets the campaign down a bit. The visuals are great though.
Fishing, Pebble and Veggie are the latest from Partners director James Haworth for the Toronto Blue Jays. Set in the 70's and 80's, they were shot on color reversal film, a film stock that was prevalent back in the day, and it gives the viewer a feeling of how things were, visually, in that time. Agency is Publicis, Toronto. Full credits and a still from the shoot are here. Haworth is repped by Another Film Company in the UK.
Need to entertained? I was just at Ads of the World and came across this Chevrolet Aveo ad via Mccann Erickson, Mumbai, India. I love when ads evoke dialogue, positive or negative, and that's just what this one has done. Take some time to read the catty ad banter.
