One Minute Briefs 1st Birthday:
One Minute Briefs 1st Birthday:
One Minute Briefs was officially One year old on Twitter yesterday. So you can imagine our shock and horror to arrive at work without any OMB birthday cards!!
Therefore, we want today's brief to be to create a card/poster to celebrate a year of One Minute Briefs.
Of course, myself and James are willing to send pictures of ourselves in our birthday suits to the winners!
Looking forward to seeing the results.
We'd also like to thank you all for making this year a huge success and we appreciate your continued support. If you have any ideas for OMB then send us an e-mail and we will try to make it happen.
Thanks,
Nick and James
One Minute Brief WINNER: Advertise Anything with Noel Edmonds

Advertise Anything with Noel Edmonds
Recently, an interesting Twitter account has appeared called @TheNoelSolution
They crack every brief with Noel Edmonds and we thought it was hilarious so we thought it would be good if everyone could have a crack.
Some great entries. A lot of which came from the Noel Edmonds pro's.
The winner is @TheNoelSolution with 'Dill or no Dill' a hilarious line with a hilarious image and they have used it to advertise Burger King. Like the quirkiness of these. It is refreshing.
Well done to you both. You've won a work placement at Grey London, apparently.
One Minute Brief WINNER: Advertise Clowns

Advertise Clowns
From the entries we received for this one we noticed that a lot of people actually find clowns quite creepy. Interesting!
But the winner @alvo_muses focused on a much more positive angle. Loved the style, image and great line of 'it takes a genius to act a fool'
Really nice. We actually featured Gareth in our talk at the #Freshtival and ideas like these are proving us right in what we spoke about.
Thanks to everyone who entered.

Really interesting to see how people took the brief on yesterday. Some quality stuff. Although there were some naughty ones. Not easy to open an image of a blow up sex doll at work! Please label NSFW in future! haha.
Few copy based winners and one image based winner.
@alvo_muses with 'Always in Fashion' very true in both senses and a good selling point.
@dognbonesjones with 'Dress to Impress' turning the typical phrase into a call to action for mannequin customers. Nice.
@matthew__wyatt with 'the model employee' really intersting to think of the mannequin as an extra member of staff, which essentially they are! Great idea.
@robertgorton with 'the embodiment of fashion' a really nice line that makes them seem premium as well as having the double meaning.

Level was high on this brief to advertise something that McCann Manchester are entering and the winner really worked well and even used us as part of it in a clever way.
A great campaign by @sharpstuffbits who really is on form at the moment!
Thanks to everyone who got involved. Brilliant stuff as ever.

Very high number of responses for this brief and a great amount of quality too.
But we have 2 winners that stood out.
The first being @stephenhunter21 with 'Let's get the Part-A started. Injecting a bit of fun into what is a pretty boring thing and also true because you can have a party at the end of your decorating perhaps?
The second is James @BOC_ATM with 'Pack Flat' A very simple call to action that flips the product with a nice image.
Hope you agree on the two winners.

So the Teletubbies aren't really coming back but wouldn't it be great if they did!
Great fun response to the brief. Lot's of Eh-Ohs and Uh Ohs! Here are the winners.
@thescampfactory with a great image based ad.
@mrowainthomas with 'what's that coming over the hill?' Great line and image.
@BOC_ATM Definitely the riskiest ad of the day and sometimes silly is good. We'd like to see some crazy ideas like these in future briefs.
@Matthew__wyatt with They've made the switch. Great idea. Subtle use of image and line. Quality.
See you all on Monday. Plus, if you've not liked us already on Facebook here it is: https://www.facebook.com/OneMinuteBriefs
