    Copy is weak, redundant (say breast too often) and grammatically off…try … “regular self examinations are the best means of detecting breast cancer in its early stages”

    Also I’ve seen this before I think…sorry

    You guys are taking a pasting lately. What with your anti smokling ad and now this. (are you putting your work up or is Zeid just grabbing it adhock?)

    There’s nothing worse than critiques on a blob like this. Bloody tough.

    Rather than use all the copouts like: “I don’t like it” ” It sucks” etc etc. Here’s what I think.

    The idea of using type to shape something is done to death. Unless of course it shapes something over something that adds another level to the idea.

    Far more importantly your strat is about detecting cancerous lumps your self. Not the shape of a breast. I would’ve thought more about something related to that.

    Like a pick of a woman’s hand and each finger is a bullet. “Your fingers are the most powerful weapon against breast cancer.”

    Bodycopy: Detecting your own breasts early could save your life.

    well if you can do better why dont you show us instead of just telling us.

  • 12. Louai Alasfahani  |  February 17th, 2008 at 1:28 am

    FYI…this ad got shortlisted in MENA Crystal ;)

  • 13. kre8tive  |  February 18th, 2008 at 2:26 pm

    Snap out of your “awards” thing:-) It’ll make you a hardcore metal head, you know “Hard on the outside and Hollow on the inside” lol

  • 14. Louai Alasfahani  |  February 19th, 2008 at 2:52 am

    first win one,,,then talk ;)

  • 15. Louai Alasfahani  |  February 19th, 2008 at 2:53 am

    Kre8IFFFF…we are still waiting to see YOUR work :)

  • 16. kre8tive  |  February 21st, 2008 at 10:23 am

    If this is the kind of work you are going to show off, then you should be ashamed of yourself (because THIS doesn’t justify YOUR TALKING which is TOO freaking MUCH…) I mean grow up LOUAI, you aren’t what you are trying to say you are. I’d rather quit advertising and sell shawarmas on salem mubarak street than create and post an ad like this one. Winning awards? You can have your KAAAs and SUMMIT, we need Cannes, Clios and LIAs, Hollow man:-)

    This ad was shortlisted in MENA Crystal & won Silver at the 2008 International Summit Creative Awards. So it seems your comments are not consistent with the professionals ;)
