Kre8tiv… seriously you liked it… ok I think you need to re-assess your benchmarks and feedback scale! It’s an ad that’s trying to be creative but got lost somewhere!

it sucks !!! dude what happened to ART DIRECTION ?! so what is the visual saying ? radial blur tells me that its zoom ?. I think what they shouldve focused on is the “BIGGNESS” not the zoom, cause it has nothing to do with the service. unfortunatly i dont see bigness in that crowded-poorly-photoshoped job.

pretty cool. the motion blurr has nothing to do with it, just an add on i guess. but it fits the background tho’. cool.

I think they’re trying to do here is to show (besides in a very busy environment) is the visibility of the text display that’s been enlarged.
Nice try people.

everyone who thinks these ads are good are either on crack or work at DDB.
Other then the fact there is no concept the art direction is just plain bad. come on seriously, if you are going to compliment your own ads at least make sure the ads are good or above average.

NOT me.. I’m not on crack:-) probably the guys (LMFAO)

Ok the idea is not showing the purpose of the software clearly, as the radial blur is not enough to show it…. maybe u need to go more creative into concept, execution is nothing just photo and filter!!

The idea is not bad.
Execution is not good at all. The mobile screen looks like a copy / paste job plus the zoom effect is not a realistic camera zoom.
Next time, take reference from a real objects and camera effects.

Juan is Filipino, right? U cursing on creatives done by people like your own. How pathetic.. That’s why U people never progress because you hate your kind. Get real!

kre8tiv, juan is just jealous because he can’t create ads like these in the local agency/inhouse that he works for, where he just executes what his boss’ tells him to do. Pathetic indeed. what a waste of talent though (if he has one)

zoom+
what is it?

Image at left side:
from my desktop, I could see the LINA in BIG text - message delivered.
Other graphics could recede (either more blur or isolate them (ins so many ways you could do that)) in order to focus for the mobile phone.
Image at right side:
I have to look closer to read the text though probably, when printed, it will be readable. Cropping might help, focus the mobile phone to make it readable.
See? positive and negative comments/suggestions. At least, we’re not fighting here.
Be honest. Make friends not enemies.
