Competition Time - Killed Ideas

Hello folks, not ran a competition before so this is pretty much an experiment...

We all know that there are hundreds of great creative ideas that never see the light of day. Killed by clients, killed by budget, killed by creative directors, killed by decency laws etc etc.

Now Steve Hall of Adrants is working with a online book publishing company called Blurb.com (and Ammo Marketing) to publish a book of the 50 best Killed Ideas.

Frankly I love the idea anyway, and when they suggested running a killed ideas competition on here; I thought why not.

SO. Let's find the best ideas out there that didn't or wouldn't make it.

Competition:

1. (In the spirit of the Chip Shop awards) Find/recall/create an ad that didn't run, or wouldn't run, or that you just think would be good.
If it is an idea that is owned by your agency etc please remove the branding or get permission first. I/Adpit/Blurb will not be held responsible for ads shown here that you should not have supplied.

2. Send it to me, marked KilledIdeas to: rob [at] ad-pit [dot] com

3. Myself and another TBC judge will pick our 10 favourites, which will then go to public vote

4. Deadline is Fri 27th March

5. Prizes:

Winner - 2 x £20 vouchers for Blurb.com, where you could print a photo book, an ad book, or whatever you feel like. Plus some bonus random geeky knick knacks from myself.

4 x Runners Up - £20 voucher for Blurb.com
