This is a really funny means of promotions! Casinò di Venezia of Italy decorated the baggage conveyor belt at the airport in order to promote their brand. By using creative guerilla marketing they captured the well-known casino game of roulette in order to motivate travelers to visit their casino.

Life’s Too Short for the Wrong Job!

September 25th, 2008

Think your job couldn’t get any worse? At least you’re not tallying figures inside an ATM or scrunched up inside of a vending machine! These ads from a popular job-search site have gained rapid notoriety all over Europe for their witty, eye-catching optical illusions.. Several similar ads appear on the side of  photo booths, laundry machines in Laundromats and ATMs.

My favorite is this ad seen on the side of a gas pump:

I can’t decide whether this guy’s expression agony has more to do with outlandish gas prices or with the fact that he just really, really hates his job. Either way, his situation won’t last long as there seems to be a cigarette of some sort hanging out of his mouth and generally, gasoline and cigarettes don’t mix well. I wonder if there’s an “after” picture?

Bucktooth Pacifier = Funny Babies?

March 16th, 2008

bucktooth pacifier

This is kinda funny, although babies by themselves are kinda funny anyways. This was done as a promotion for an orthodontia clinic, somewhere outside of the US where one could actually get away with doing a promotion like this.
