Last week, it was the World Wildlife Fund’s just plane tasteless terror ad created by DDB Brazil; an ad industry insiders were quick to call a fake, but ended up being quite real. Today, via another Omnicom agency (BBDO Moscow), we present a digital papercraft Twin Towers project for the Moscow News. Well, at least the art director didn’t make little falling body paper pieces. The Moscow News is a free weekly English language paper founded in 1930 by American socialist Anna Louise Strong, according to Wikipedia. At their website, you’ll find their sort-of tagline: “From Stalin’s mouthpiece to Russia’s wake-up call.” Sure, I bet Putin’s shitting his camo pants. Here’s a wake-up call for the world’s ad creatives from New Yorkers: retain your stupid WTC attack visuals in the mush of your brains. Thank you. |Image: Coloribus, where there’s also a Hiroshima version|
