In a rather aimless rummage around the attic which is my hard drive… i came across this identity that i designed quite a few months ago. For a total lack of intelligent content that this blog of mine has become… here is another sorry excuse of a post intended to buy both time and patience until further notice.

Cannes Young Lions Competition 2007

Filed under: Advertising, Dubai — artraj at 5:51 am on Wednesday, May 9, 2007

That time of the year again… Bassam and i teamed up to represent TBWA\RAAD at the Cannes Young Lions. Despite all our speculations that the brief in question would be Global Warming, we were expectantly dissapointed when it turned out to be a ‘Call for donation to UN’s World Food Programme. BUMSAC !!

8 hours later, a stressed out art director and a trigger happy ideator (with a case of unexpectedly varying level of blood pressure) produced these two press ads.

Young Lions 2007 - Book Ad

Not overly happy with what we came up with but must admit that this time round we were sharper and more polished than last…. We’ll get there eventually :)
