To urge Tunisians to get out and vote, Memac Ogilvy Label Tunisia created a banner for Engagement Citoyen with the image of ousted President Ben Ali. Ali is not well loved making the presence of the wall hanging was very offensive to residents. So offensive a few of them ripped it down. Only to reveal the true purpose of the poster.
Underneath the image of Ali was the statement, "Beware, dictatorship can return. On Oct 23rd Vote." Check out the video below.

To promote the release of the Blu-ray DVD boxed set of Star Wars: The Complete Saga, 20th Century FOX Japan converted the handrails of several Tokyo-based subways into lightsabers marking the first time handrails have ever been used as an advertising medium in Japan. The geeks are going to love this one.
To pimp what certainly appears destined to be a blockbuster movie, Warner Brothers Canada turned to Lowe Roche to create two billboards that functioned as giant petri dishes which were then injected with bacteria. Over the course of a week, the bacteria grew to form the name of the movie being promoted, the Steven Soderberdh film Contagian.
Pretty ingenious promotional idea if you ask us. The billboards were small but they attracted quite a bit of attention. The first 50 people to view the board were given passes to see the movie when it opens in theaters September 9.

Mullen is out with its first work for Living Language, a Random House Audio brand that competes with Rosetta Stone in the self-guided foreign language education space. The campaign with the theme "The Accent is on you" includes mobile advertising, online video and banner ads, as well as social and experiential.
The centerpiece of the campaign is a branded food-truck which made an appearance in Union Square yesterday and will be in Midtown Manhattan today. To get free food samples, people have to order in Spanish, French, Italian or German. Mullen is calling it the "say it right to get a bite" rule.
On Instagram, Living Language has attracted 2,400+ followers with 13 of their 28 photos making the "popular page" and receiving as many as 465 likes. Too bad you can't order food through Instagram but who' really counting the important stuff like sales? We jest.
To promote the "art" of bathing (yes, apparently it's an art), British company Soap & Glory has installed a 13 foot high, 67 foot long, two ton sculpture - created by Oliver Voss - in Alster Lake in Hamburg Germany.

New York cabbies aren't pleased with the proliferation of taxi tops pimping strip clubs. One cabbie, Mohan Singh told the New York Post, "My children ask me, 'What is this? I want to go to a gentlemen's club? What should I answer?"
Currently, taxi medallion owners decide what does and doesn't get placed atop their cabs. Cab owners have no say. But TLC Commissioner David Yassky has said he's willing to allow drivers who own their own taxis have the final say. A final decision will me made in September when it meets.
Calling attention to the thoughts, hopes and fears of children, a new billboard campaign in Pittsburgh was launched last week. The campaign, part of the Hear Me project, aims to make children aware of the project and its focus on providing children means of being heard.
Of the campaign, Hear Me Director Heide Waldbaum said, "We listen to what they're talking about. They do have a voice, and they're capable of producing newsworthy content, and we should be listening to them."
The project, part of Carnegie Mellon's CREAT Lab, has 3,000 children participating who have contributed their thoughts to the campaign's billboards, website and Facebook page.
