Outdoor

Seen and noted: Hot Wheels outdoor

A handful of the ads you see on ad blogs like Ads of the World, evoke that ‘I wish I had thought of that’ reaction. Here’s one such Outdoor idea for Hot Wheels.

Maybe it’d have been even better if they actually put a car in that curl. While we are at it, here are a couple of outdoor & ambient executions done on the same brand a few years ago.

The last one is apparently 2004 and looks it. Ambient ideas like these, which were novel then, spawned an army of copywriters who were obsessed with this medium. I have come across copywriters who only have such ideas in their portfolio – you know, converting the chimney of a factory into a cigarette stick variety. Nevertheless, such outdoor & ambient ideas work when they are truly unexpected, relevant and simple in execution.
