I thought NotCot was a place for sharing ideas? And you can't just upload to NotCot, it has to be approved at their end doesn't it? So they obviously thought it worthy to share.
As always the art direction is very good - have you ever considered graphic design Wal as someone previously suggested? You might fair better at that than teaming up in the quest for a job in advertising.
Screw all these anonymous gits Wal. I really admire your persistence and your blog is really cool. I have no doubt that you'll get your break and fuck those switching to graphic design suggestions.
look nice with a nice idea but far, far too easy for a spec book... there is no strategy you are just answering a very easy brief.
ReplyDeletesorry to be harsh but a spec book is about doing mad stuff that shows how different you can think to every other team out there.
Hey. NotCot is a place for good design and innovations people find, not a place for advertising students to put their grad work.
ReplyDeleteAgree too safe for a spec book.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking about Tic, toc.
You're running out of time at Wiedens,
have you done anything brilliant yet.
Yes, that's what it'll take.

is this to show the 5 people in london that haven't seen this campaign?
ReplyDeleteI think its clever, screw everyone else.
ReplyDeleteIt's lazy and maybe shows why a job offer has not appeared yet.
ReplyDeleteIn a student book you should never try to polish an average campaign, it just won't wash.
Maybe try and get a job in graphic design
that was a submission to an award, had to be executed and polished, and the brief was set.
ReplyDeletehows it gone down around town. honest?
ReplyDeleteD&AD award, didn't win but was in the book wasn't it?
ReplyDeletei think its a tight response to the brief, good job, could then take this further for your book?
ReplyDeletetight response??... I think its a really poor answer and shows a complete lack of understanding to the issue.
ReplyDeleteJuly 7th bombings = a Tesco carrier bag with a stick of dynamite. Great.

ReplyDeleteThe visuals do feel familiar, but the message is quick and works.
ReplyDeleteWhether it got in the book or not, unless it won gold it seems frivolous to put it on the bLog I'm afraid to say mate. Wasn't this 2 years ago too?!
ReplyDeleteexplains why wal has not got a job yet!
ReplyDeleteYep, this work is 2 years old!
ReplyDeleteYou need to be updating your book with recent stuff, and better work than what you did 2 or more years ago at uni.
Didn't you know you don't need a good book to get into advertising anymore, just a 'crazeeeee' blog and some wacky clothes.
ReplyDeleteMaybe that's where the rest of us are going wrong eh - I should be starting a blog myself! Hmm
ReplyDeleteScrew all these anonymous gits Wal. I really admire your persistence and your blog is really cool. I have no doubt that you'll get your break and fuck those switching to graphic design suggestions.
ReplyDeleteKris.
