“It is a mistake to use highfalutin language when you advertise to uneducated people.  I once used the word obsolete in a headline, only to discover that 43% of the housewives had no idea what it meant.  In another headline, I used the word ineffable, only to discover that I didn’t know what it meant myself.”- David Ogilvydavid

durex-get-it-on-ad

This is the funniest condom ad I’ve ever seen in my life!  The Durex ‘Get it On’ condom ad.   WARNING it was only release via Internet, and it’s pretty graphic for balloons. lol  

The ad agency responsible for this hilarious ad is SuperfadSuperfad describes themselves as a brand-driven design & live action production company.  They have offices in Los Angeles, New York, Seattle & London.

Superfads mission statement reads: “Our mission is to see brands in unexpected ways and to express a brand’s voice in an undeniably original fashion.”

And from looking at their work, I’d say they stay true to that statement……
