One Minute Brief of the Day: Advertise a New Year...New You.

One Minute Brief of the Day:

Advertise a New Year...New You.

Today's brief is the start of a collaboration between ourselves and the Fresh Awards in which we will be running a monthly brief for prizes. After successful collaborations with Fresh in the past, we are really looking forward to this. The prizes are superb too so get involved. We'll hopefully see some of you at the Awards evening later on in the year too.

See below for info from Fresh. Remember to include @freshawards in your tweets. 

We’ve teamed up with our pals at both The Ad Pad and One Minute Briefs to run a monthly themed competition where the winners can win not only a rather snazzy free Ad Pad, but the overall winner (the best from the six months worth of work) will also get five free Fresh entries and a two tickets to the swanky awards do later in the year…..that’s well over £750 worth of wonderful creativity!

This months competition is all about ‘’New Year, New You’’

As long as the idea contains the Fresh logo somewhere in the scamp and more or less follows the theme, it’ll be very welcome!

So get involved everybody!!

Averaging over 100 entries per day this week. You lot work us hard. We love it!

Another impressive response to an unusual brief. Some clever ideas on something that could never typically be advertised.

That's reflected with the quality of the winners which you can see below.

@lantis_85 with 'it's only a bitch if you are' Very true.

@sharpstuffbits with a lovely dominoes visual representation.

@allthatcrag with a nice before and after idea.

@little_scamp85 with a visua/copy based idea of what goes around...comes around. Nice work and also the brilliant typographic route with the word Karma reading the same both ways. Amazing.

@atalexgoddard with 'bad things come to those who hate' Brilliant line.

@lpbiesty with this stunning visual of a gun that shoots at themselves.

@KGCreativity with a funny yet serious visual using 3 fish.

Thanks to everybody!!

We had a few winners that were all very different.

@snyggstyle with 'Febrewery' Subtle but great line!

@dubosecole with 'Absolut Clarity' So simple.

@dognbonesjones with a great responsive ad for non-alcoholic Becks.

After watching The Undateables on the Thursday night, it was fresh in our minds on the Friday morning so we thought it would make a brilliant brief and there were some great responses. Some funny, some controversial and some serious. Great mix.

Here are the winners:

@lantis_85 with 'one in a million' Amazing double meaning. Great work.

@sarahlong_xx with a ver simple yet strong line 'Love is Blind'

@hellonaomi_ with the chat up lines based ad that uses humour yet is also serious which creates an eye-catching piece.

@iainthorley with 'that special someone' A really nice line that has meaning.

@aga_nat with 'all shapes and sizes' A nice thought and good copy.

@adriandouble_r with 'oh, and I'm in a wheelchair' Emotive and surprising copy. Nice work.

Thanks to all who got involved.

Today's brief was chosen due to Chris Smalling's ill advised fancy dress outfit where he apparently went as a Jagerbomber.

We are glad we chose it because we had 112 entries! Amazing quantity which meant we had some fantastic ideas too. We have several winners today and one really stood out to us which was @misterDJC and his stunning visual of the bull and deer colliding.

Other winners are: 

@joe_from_cp with 'Match of the Day' Brilliantly different thinking.

@tomeccles with 'good nights are remembered and the best are forgotten' Love this line.

@katesteeth with this brilliant graphic using the bin symbol. 

@iainthorley with 'It's about to go off' Would be a great ad for a nightclub.

and @joe_from_cp also came up with this beauty that we want to use at our OMB event. jagerbOMB.

Can't wait to do some jagerbOMBs with the jagerbOMBLES!! Will let you all know when the event is soon!!!

Today's brief was to advertise a Twitter account that we created a while ago with Vikki Ross.

It has gone on to become a very popular feed with a good level of interaction across the creative industry.

The idea is to share the #thingsyouhearinagencies and we want more and more people to get involved because some of the things people say in agencies are crazy and unlike you would hear in any other profession.

Today's entries were suitably fun and we feel that the 3 winners show the idea perfectly in different ways.

@see_low with this really interesting and abstract visual. Nice work.

@paulallgood with a quote based entry that talks about the very platform @agencyquotes is on.

@aga_nat which highlights a benefit that anyone who is starting in the creative industry can know what to expect from their work colleagues.

Thanks to everyone who got involved. Make sure you check out @agencyquotes and get involved each day!

Wow. What a fantastic response for what is an amazing cause. It makes it even more great that we were in support of a fellow OMBLE who is doing something brilliant to help a charity that he is very close to.

@misterDJC has told us he was moved by all the entries that were sent in as it has helped raise awareness of an important issue as well as the charity itself.

Off the back of yesterday's brief, myself and James have just made a donation and we hope you all will too however small. It all makes a difference.

You can see our donation and donate yourself here: https://www.justgiving.com/OUR-LITTLE-BELLE

After a very difficult decision, we have 1 winner and 3 runners-up. Winner gets a pack of Sharpies and some layout pads to do their One Minute Briefs on and improve their scamping skills!

Below are the comments from @misterDJC

WINNER

I’M FIGHTING FIT(S) @robertgorton
Really like this one, think it would work superbly as WE’RE FIGHTING FIT(S), so it works for the charity and the team that are doing the marathon at the same time..

RUNNERS-UP

DON’T RUN AWAY FROM EPILEPSY @paulallgood
Great lines on this, highlights the charity and the event

26.2 MILES FOR LITTLE BELLE @lantis_856
Lovely use of very clever graphic on this one, emphasises the event and the fact epilepsy is all about abnormal activity in the brain

OPEN YOUR MIND, THEN OPEN YOUR WALLET @dognbonesjones
Again this one promotes the charity and the fact they need donations

Thanks again to everyone who got involved!!
