Rethink Plastic

Here's a fun stunt by Rethink. They put giant six-pack rings on many of the famous statues and landmarks around town.

You'd think the enormity of the stunt and the awareness it brings to the issue would trump the fact they used plastic to make their point, but hey, you can't please everyone.

Agency #26

This husband/wife team recently celebrated their 10 year anniversary. The catchy title comes from a hybrid of the couple's own names (and was not, to my knowledge, designed to re-direct those searching for hotmail.com). They have some funky stuff on their website. My hands down favourite is this one:




I see they've just moved, here's their new digs:

Coors Down

Apparently the latest in the "colder than" series left some Toronto folk with a bad taste in their mouth.

Judging from the press it got, I'd say it was a success.

Guerilla Gone Wrong

I was on CBC Radio One a couple of months ago talking about guerilla advertising.

Sometimes it's awesome.



Sometimes it backfires.

Ikea ad gone wrong

Thoughts?

Advertising Agency #23

The beauty of advertising in Vancouver is all the outdoor options you have. Vancouver advertising is going to get a bit chaotic in 2010 with Olympics sponsors and all, but at least there will be ambient and outdoor options available for the everyman and woman.

You can advertise on ice cream trucks. You can advertise on bikes. And let’s not forget about our favourite mobile 3D chamber.

They contacted me through Twitter a while back, so without further ado…
