2007 Feltron Annual Report

People choose to document their lives in different ways—some keep diaries, some make scrapbooks, some blog (wink). Until recently, I've never heard of anyone creating a personal annual report as a means of documentation, but thats exactly what NYC's Nicholas Feltron produces every year. He compiles every statistic imaginable for a young Manhattanite: taxi fares, miles walked, vacation days taken, iTunes tracks played, even the percentage of his day he spent measuring everything for his annual report.

The end result is a super clean, infographic masterpiece. The stats don't mean much to us, the reader/viewer, but the report provides definite entertainment and some pretty sweet infographic design inspiration. Check out the report in its entirety here.

JWT Coat Drive




Check out this striking installation piece created by JWT to illustrate & promote their coat drive. A giant homeless person was painted on a wall along with strategically placed coat hooks. As people hung their donated coats on the hooks, a coat is formed. Julie Rutigliano, is an artist who paints murals and volunteered her time to paint the sixteen foot homeless figure.

JWT ended up with too many coats to cover the figure in the end...about four times too many! I guess that means the installation was a success.

Reebok "Butterflies"

How better to emphasize the shoe's lightness, colorfulness and versatility than by comparing them to butterflies. Perhaps a comparison to live butterflies would have been more relevant, but you get the idea :)

99.9999999% Effective

You have to see the new Clearblue Digital commercial (if you haven't seen it already). It has art direction & filming reminiscent of luxury automobile spots (think Jag-u-ar) and an oh-so-memorable tagline: "The most advanced piece of technology you will ever pee on…" Check it out:



It's nice to see Clearblue agreed to take the humor & surprise route to promote their typically unexciting product. Props to AmalgamatedNYC for talking them into it.

It's "unclear" how effective the spot will be with their target audience of potentially expecting women and paranoid teens, but its definitely noteworthy amongst us design & ad junkies.
