Earvertising

Samsung Campaign Hangs Artists from Earlobes

Samsung is pushing their MP3 players with some great advertising posters that show earbuds that look like tiny little performers. Elvis, Emenim and I think the Velvet Fog himself, Mel Torme, are formed to appear as if they are singing only for you. A perfect message that is right on point.

The Samsung ad was produced by Cheil Worldwide, Seoul, by a team that included creative director Joungrack Lee, art director Jaewon Choi and photographer Junghoe Kim.
