One Minute Brief WINNER: RIP Robin Williams Posters

One Minute Brief WINNER:

RIP Robin Williams Posters

Another stunning tribute created by the OMB community today for a legendary actor and person. It was very sad news to hear and it is great that we can use our creativity to share our thoughts about Robin Williams.

Today is probably the first time this has ever happened, but the win has gone to us at @BOC_ATM. It's very rare we give ourselves a win...and even rarer that we are the only winner. However, the votes were heavily in this poster's favour. It's much appreciated. There were lots of fantastic ideas out there today. Well done to all!

Lots of amazing entries today with some worthy winners for a brilliant product. However, one stood out from the rest and the votes reflected this.

@paperjamcreate with a fantastic ambient media idea. Would love to see more of these in a campaign. It also shows that not every idea to win an OMB has to be a poster although it's usually the best place to start. It's all about the start of an idea.

Well done to everyone!

One Minute Brief WINNERS: Campaign for or against #BorisJohnson to be Prime Minister

One Minute Brief WINNERS:

Campaign for or against #BorisJohnson to be Prime Minister

We ran this brief in response to the news that Boris Johnson is considering running for Parliament and eventually wants to be considered for Prime Minister. So we opened it up for or against this happening and the results were brilliant and well divided.

@matthew__wyatt with 'on your bike Boris' Nice copy.

@cogdissdesign with 'this man wants to run our country' A clever idea as it leave the opinion up to the person looking at the ad and is stronger for it.

@suchand_such with 'Be More Boris' Great parody ad that could be a great campaign idea.

@misterdjc with 'unconservative' Brilliant sketch and line.

@chorles using what many used as a negative to say something positive. He did look very silly but you can't argue with how patriotic it was!

Well done everyone.

A great response to a tricky brief today. Lots of entries with a lot of humour included. As mentioned, this brief was a repeat of one we ran a year ago. This will happen from time to time given that we run one every weekday. It is interesting to see how the ideas have improved in quantity and quality since last time and good to see a fresh take on things.

Today's winners are:

@johnford with the nice gun visual.

@ant_sterdam using the cost comparison of having the procedure and not. Great idea.

@adrianbentley with 'chop, chop' Nice thinking.

@shireendew with a simple clapperboard image. Brilliant. 

Well done all.
