“You Won’t Come Out The Same”

December 30th, 2008 by Chris Mathieson

policemugpolicedatepoliceclientIt appears that the draft artwork that Cosette did for us last spring has finally been posted online. Here are the three ads that mocked up for us and you can visit this site to see what some of the commentary has been on this potential campaign.Generally positive reaction, which is nice to see, with some useful feedback. We still don’t know when/how we’re going to deploy this artwork, however.

There’s been some activity on a few blogs about this, including:

So, what do you think? Do you like these ads? Should we use them somehow? Should we use the idea in a different way, maybe?

    Hey Chris… Thanks for joining in the Meet n’ Greet… Welcome!

    I did see this campaign, and I really liked it. Reminds me of the stuff I do, actually.

    Come back and play as often as you like! :) Happy almost-Friday!

    (I sent myself by to say hi!)

    Click on it and assuming you allow scripts to run in your browser, you’ll get a nice big image.

    Interesting site! Especially because I’m on CapeCod in the USA-
    Also, I have a degree in design, so Netchick, Tanya, sent to to the right post!

    a). Couldn’t a coffee cup on the car roof be a hazard if you have to speed off to a crime scene quickly?

    b). in the treating your girl like she’s being arrested shots, you needn’t show the entire vehicle, but could crop up closer to the action for emphasis.

    c.) Does everyone who goes to the museum get a pat-down?

    It’s all about communication, n effectiveness, -advertising.
    The concept of before / after a museum visit is good.
    (I’m a bit detail oreintated!)
