Masks Alive

Each day, millions of masks become rubbish. Most of them are discarded incorrectly and could carry virus on and on. Viruses live longer on masks than we think. “Masks Alive”, a print campaign from Sea You Tomorrow (Singha Estate’s Environmental Awareness Project) to raise the awareness and make people take action to dispose masks correctly. That’s what the description on AdsOfTheWorld.

Qiaobi cleaning liquid

In the advert a pouch of Qiaobi cleaning liquid is forced into the man’s mouth and he is then bundled into a washing machine by a smiling woman. After a cycle of muffled screams, she opens the lid and a grinning Asian man climbs out. He winks at the viewer before the slogan flashes up on screen: Change begins with Qiaobi.

MTN Presents: Mathata Towers

During the Covid-19 Pandemic of 2020, South Africa, like most countries, found itself in the position of having to come up with brand communication within the confines of the restrictions put in place in an effort to curb the spread of the virus. Inevitably there is a cloying sameness about many of the ads that flighted. Some made a great effort and resonated with their social distancing audience.

Absa’s Africanacity Ad

Absa describes Africanacity as, “A new word for our new purpose. There's a way of doing things that's unique to our continent. Of meeting every challenge with tenacity, ingenuity, positivity and creativity. At Absa, we call this Africanacity: the distinctly African ability to always find ways to get things done.

This is one of those polarising ads where it has all the positivity that any self-respecting person appreciates in a feel good ad.

Love's Baby Soft 1975

Let’s take a trip down memory lane, waaaaay down, back to a time where it seems like the rules and regulations were very relaxed when it came to marketing and advertising. The caption on the YouTube video read, “I'm not exactly sure what kind of message the people who made this commercial were trying to convey (a sexy baby? really?) but here is a 1975 television ad for Love's Baby Soft products. Let's see them try to get something like this on the air today!”

Kitchen Giffing - Kmart BOGO Family Fleece

With some hits there are usually misses, and it is safe to say that the "GIF-ing Out" ads are the latter. One features a couple coming home from a successful holiday shopping spree at Kmart. Their celebration is on loop, which reminds their neighbors of a GIF file.

Dr Pepper Ten - It's Not For Women

Dr. Pepper launched a new ad campaign in 2011 for its new diet soft drink, Dr. Pepper Ten - a ten calorie beverage designed, apparently, to appeal to men. In fact, the new ad campaign made it explicit that Dr. Pepper Ten is "not for women."

HEADON! Apply directly to the forehead!

A woman of rather conservative appearance stares into the abyss like a military commander on a Maoist poster as she rubs what appears to be a glue-stick on her forehead. In the background, an Eisenmanian grid, and a voice, not quite human, but not quite automated, chants:

“HeadOn: Apply directly to the forehead. HeadOn: Apply directly to the forehead. HeadOn: Apply directly to the forehead.”
