A Perfect Sky Blue

One of the coolest advertisements we've seen lately is for Berger Paints. In a billboard for their campaign titled, Natural Colours, a live painter appeared to be painting the blue of the sky onto the billboard. It was achieved by cutting out strips that are the actual shape and size of the roller strokes. This is stop-in-your-tracks advertising. Love it!

Why is the roller blue? why is it 'above' the 'cutout'? how come the cutouts have wrinkle marks around them? the creases/wrinkles in the paper/fabric in the bottom left corner show its flimsy/unstable - I doubt the cutouts would have the skinny pointy bits staying upright...... sorry, I just smell a rat!
I would be convinced if you could show the same pic with different skies/ times of day.

Comment by Susan on March 3, 2009 at 10:30am: Wow! That's a great advertisement! Really eye catching and fun.

Comment by Will on March 3, 2009 at 1:28am: This ad probably doesn't work in LA or the Inland Empire, huh? I can't imagine "Smog Gray" being a very popular color.
