To see this ad, place under direct sunlight

Here is a billboard from Brazil for Nivea:


Using one million light-reflecting beads that would reveal its color when exposed to ultraviolet rays, this billboard in Rio de Janeiro would only appear when the sun came out.  The brighter the sun shone, the more intense the color of the beads became.

Post-it note art

I really can't get enough of post-it stop-motion films.  Here's one for Brazilian shoe brand Melissa:


It took 350,000 post-it notes, 25 animators, and 5 months to create this stop-motion film shot at the foyer of the Melissa flagship store in Sao Paulo for the "Power of Love" campaign.  Passersby were encouraged to write personal messages on the post-it notes.

I want you to hit this print ad as hard as you can

Here is an amazing print ad for Peugeot 408 from Brazil:


To illustrate the vehicle's safety features, they created an airbag - that inflates in the ad.  The insert showcases the front of the vehicle with copy that roughly translates to:  "Hit this spot hard and find out why the new Peugeot provides a lot more safety."

When you punch the insert, a small bag starts inflating on the other side of the print.  The interior of the vehicle is pictured on the next page with the "airbag" and copy that reads "Six airbags and eight protection points to absorb any impact"
