Ads You Must See

Here are five ads you must see

Every week we showcase a handful of ads from around the world that, for one reason or another, for reasons good and bad, we think you should take a look at. Here are five ads you must see because…

The Meth Project

…this is but one in a series that employs a variety of evocative animation styles.

Nescafé

…it’s not the story itself (which is good and well-shot), but where they chose to end it.

Currys PCWorld

…every time Star Wars finds its way onto a new medium, we’re treated to oversized Muppets making cameos in otherwise banal retail settings.

Goliath

…while the games themselves may change (and how!), it’s good to know kids’ games’ advertising hasn’t changed since 1985.

Paco Rabanne

…would you want the man who gave us Sad Torso representing your brand?
