I was looking to something on the Internet and saw this picture.
When creating an ad, it is as important as the execution or the idea itself, the place where the ad is going to be installed. In this case, the failure is, of course, the placement where the ad was set... FAIL
Estaba mirando unas cosas en Internet cuando de repente me he encontrado con esto... Cuando haces un anuncio, es tan importante como la idea en sí o la propia ejecución, como el lugar donde se va a instalar el anuncio. En este caso, el FAIL es claramente el lugar donde se ubicó.

The Ikea campaign
I don´t like this campaign by Ikea at all. I usually like Ikea´s campaigns, but this one.. omg...To me, it seems that you can just get the boxes and not even the pieces of furniture. It seems that the sales are about dicreasing the quality of their own products. Well, if you look at the claim, you can read "You can get more", which means that as they are in sales, you can also get the furniture. However, I think that ads shouldn´t take too much time to understand them, and it took me some time to understand this campaign, which is not good.
Con esta campaña de Ikea me he llevado desilusión, porque sus anuncios suelen ser bastante bonitos; pero esta... puufff... Viendo los anuncios, me da la impresión de que solo voy a poder conseguir cajas. Parece que las rebajas consisten en "disminuir la calidad de los productos" en vez de disminuir los precios de los muebles. Luego, si te fijas en el claim, te das cuenta que a lo que se refiere el anuncio es que, como las rebajas son realmente grandes, puedes conseguir más que cajas; puedes comprar más cosas: ¡los muebles en sí! Sin embargo, me parece demasiado complicado pillarlo en un solo vistazo.Sales up to 40%. You can get more.

The fruit that wanted to become a vegetable...
I like this idea BUT there are 2 things that make the ad a failure:
1. "Vegetables are all your body needs". What the heck? As every doctor would say, to be healthy you have to have a varied diet and eat fruits, vegetables, meat, fish... so vegetables aint´t ALL your body needs. (I would consider this as misleading information)
2. And secondly, since when pears and tomatos are vegetables?
Me gusta la idea, pero hay 2 cosas que me parecen que lo han echado a perder:
1. "Las verduras son todo lo que necesita tu cuerpo". ¿Qué... diablos? Cualquier médico te dirá siempre que una buena dieta es aquella en la que se incluyen frutas, verduras, carne, pescado, etc, así que las verduras no son todo lo que el cuerpo necesita; el cuerpo necesita de todo. (a esto yo lo consideraría como información engañosa)
2. Y en segundo lugar, desde cuándo una pera y un tomate son verduras? Creía que eran frutas...

Toys are now alive
Este anuncio me da mal rollo. Es que no me gusta nada ¿eh? El claim es "Los juguetes tendrán vida propia", es decir, que gracias a las pilas los juguetes se podrán mover y eso, pero para mí, el bebé con esa boca mecánica me hace pensar en "juega con tu bebé, que es como un juguete". La verdad es que me parece bastante confuso.

The water park
This ad is super weird. It seems to be advertising something that is not. It seems that there is a person with water in his/her stomach that look like sperm.
However, the ad is actually advertising a Water Park!!! nothing to do with what it looks like. I bet the original idea was to show the speed of the water drops. FAIL

The all- seeing eye
This one made me laugh. I think it is a creative way of advertising on a newspaper but there´s something wrong in there. The eye belongs to the right part of a face. However it has been placed in the left part of the page, so it seems like if the reader had 2 right eyes. Instead, as they knew the ad was going to be placed in that page, they should have set the left eye. If the advertiser didn´t know about that, then we realise that there was a total lack of organization.I guess is not a big deal, but I´m just saying...
Este me ha hecho gracia. Me parece una manera creativa de anunciarse en un periódico (hoy en día hay que llamar la atención como sea), pero si te fijas hay algo raro ahí. El ojo pertenece a la parte derecha de una cara. Sin embargo, se ha colocado en la parte izquierda de la página, así que parece que la persona que está leyendo tuviera dos ojos derechos. Supongo que el creativo sabía de antemano en qué lugar de la página se colocaría el anuncio, así que deberían haber dibujado el ojo izquierdo (si no lo sabía está claro que ha habido una falta de organización).

The "hairy" shirt
American Laser: Hair Removal
They idea isn´t that bad, but I think it is a little disgusting how he´s taking that "shirt of hair" off.
La idea no está tan mal, pero me parece un poquillo asqueroso eso de la "camiseta de pelo" que se está quitando...

Fashion Junkie
SISLEY is a very famous brand. They stand out because of their cool, and in fashion clothes. And we all know their style when it comes to advertising.
However, this ad called my attention. It may seem cool (I think it is) but it is not appropriate. Look at the models´faces...

Teenagers can be very affected by this ad, affected in the wrong way, because SISLEY is transmiting the idea that fashion is like a drug; you have to have it or you will not feel all right.
Disgusting.
SISLEY es una marca muy famosa de moda. No sé si habréis visto otras campañas publicitarias de la marca, pero vaya, que no pasan desapercibidas.
Sin embargo, este anuncio en particular me ha llamado la atención. A mi me gusta, pero también considero que no es nada apropiado. Mirad las caras de las modelos...
Los adolescentes se pueden ver afectados de manera muy negativa por este anuncio, porque SISLEY está transmitiendo la idea de que la moda es como una droga, que si no la tienes no te puedes sentir bien...
¿?
Special thanks to Teresa who sent me this ad.

Alcohol + children? Really..?
I just saw these ads and I think they are a complete fail. I´m sure you know what´s wrong in here.
Alcohol + children? I just don´t get it...
FAIL FAIL FAIL FAIL FAIL
Acabo de ver estos anuncios y es que me parecen muy fuertes. Supongo que sabréis porqué.
¿Alcohol + menores (BEBÉS) en el mismo anuncio? No me lo creo...

"The water you waste is the water you´ll need"
I think this ad is a failure because I think that you cannot advertise water and stuff and set buildings in the ad. If they are pretending to be ecological I believe they should have drawn trees, plants or animals, but not buildings. Because they are the ones that make the illustration dark.
Maybe the goal of this ad was all that. But I still don´t like it.
Considero que este anuncio es un poco fail porque creo que si están anunciando algo relacionado con el agua y con ser más ecológico no deberían haber dibujado edificios, que a mi modo de ver son contradictorios con la idea de ecología que se pretende transmitir. Deberían haber dibujado árboles, plantas o animales, pero no edificios. Porque además son ellos (los bloques) los que hacen que la ilustración en general sea oscura y fría.
Aunque a lo mejor el propósito de este anuncio era justo todo esto. Pero a mi no me gusta nada.
