Ad Professor Original: Unicef

Here's an ad I made for Unicef...


Great Ad: KitKat

🧪 Principle: Replace The Familiar Variable

Take a hyper-familiar moment, and replace the usual variable (eg. phones) with your product.


Great Ad: Chupa Chups

🧪 Principle: Scientific Reframe

Take a hard concept (science, tech, finance) and reframe it with your product as the punchline.


Social Media Ad: Uber Eats

🧪 Principle: Flip the Phrase

Take a cliché the audience knows, and rewrite the ending to sell your product.


Social Media Ad: WWF

🧪 Principle: Show the Cost They Can’t See

If the problem causes harm out of sight, bring the consequence to the surface.

This one’s a masterclass in subtle horror. The visual is the gut punch.


Great TikTok Ad: Vogel's Bread NZ

🧪 Principle: Take The Joke Seriously

If your idea is ridiculous, treat it like haute couture. The contrast is the campaign.

That's what this brand of sliced bread did in NZ. They launched their own "Bready Ware".

This ad alone topped all their other content with 1.5M views in just a few days.

Brilliant.

"Your ad should say something so interesting that people will want to share it at dinner." – David Ogilvy
