DDB's Big Head





Suddenly, DDB has grown a head to large for its own body. You can click to read some of the agency's impressive achievements over the years (Most awarded agency in Cannes' 50 year history, for example). But, of course, if you look closely you can see the figurative tongue in the cheeks of these gigantic heads. These self-promo ads were created by the Paris office.

You would think that big heads would come up with big ideas. These seem like they have been done before and the bodies don't seem to be in proportion to the room. The creatives who did this probably aren't in any of the shows they are bragging about.

I thought agencies were about selling products, not themselves, or as a well known CD of a very well known agency used to have on his wall many years ago:

“our job is to sell advertising to clients, not to sell product to customers.”

This 'ad' perfectly shows the current status of most major agencies and how out of touch advertisers are with advertising.
